4" lift

Nice.
But unless you want smashed front fenders (like mine) you need to put some bumpstops on that front axle to keep it out of the fender.

working on a way to extend the bump stops now. I dropped them down about an inch but still need to go longer. any ideas?

2x2 boxtube - cut to fit - weld it in place.

I took some 31's in trade for the 33's...

and currently I have found a sweet spot at the moment w/ my Jeep.
4.0 5speed 3.07's r&p gearing 4in lift & 31's - - - the jeep is really doing well for where it's at right now! even went out wheeling today. and damn near **** myself i was so skeered on this - hillclimb by my house. *(TS)

the current plan is; Spoa & either a ford 8.8 or a set of Yukons i might be able to get, lock the fawker & throw on my 33's BFG M/T's...
I'am not all about Ultra Build Up on this rig, Daily Driver & capable Weekender.

*(TS) - Top Secret -

=========== sorry for the HyJack;

I went today to that *(TS) area...

If you can get down here tomorrow - I'll show you where it is at

I'll bring my camera & snap a few pic's even. bring your spare undies though!
as for the "Public" wheeling area - I was talking about ELBE ORV

just do a Google search w/ the words Elbe Hills ORV / or / elbe orv

and basicly - avoid the "busywild trail" - until you've rode through it w/ someone in a capable rig of running it. lot's of icky mud up there too!
looks like your rig's got a nice stance to it now! mine just found the power band again w/ 31's... :haha: :haha: :haha:

it was actually pretty fun today wheeling w/ 31's again & AT's at that.

I used black RTV to "glue" a hockey puck to each of the spring locators on the both of my axles, if you need more than 3/4 of an inch screw two of them together and then glue them on. I would not use more than two but I have seen a guy that screwed five of them together and just put them in the spring and lets them flop about. They can't come out anyway.

MADDMUDDER · Oct 24, 2006

That is a crazy idea!! I am gonna try it so just glue it in place? It wont get knocked off in a hard flex? CHEERS:beer:

StormTrooper · Oct 24, 2006

Hasn't come off yet...just make sure the mating surfaces are really clean and roughed up. I used a small wire brush on my dremel tool to scuff them up both the axle and the puck....

Besides they'll only get pressed on harder and the axle does not move sideways the track bar prevents that.
