Picked up some moabs and mtrs for $200 last night . Took it out today and ran some ditches, and i was very impressed with how it flexed. At full flex, the tires rub the flares, the low side spring drops like 2", and front drive shaft is just fully compressed with driver side dropped. Works awesome! But after i crawled and shut it off, i went to start it and it idled really rough and wouldn't rev up right--felt like i was running on 5 or something, but then it cleared up...any ideas what that is?

My porc sye is coming this week, i bought a front cv shaft for the back, and i picked up some jks acs to get it level and for future front bumper. Its coming together slowly, but i'm liking it.......

lookin good!

 

what size lift and tires do you have?

 

wow super flexy

 

I have a RE 3.5 Super flex, which is sitting right on 3.5 in the front and almost 4.5 in the back, so thats why i got some jks adjustable coil spacers. tires are 245/75/r16s, so like 30.5x10.50. I wouldn't want any bigger-they would tear off my fender flares!

 

sweet deal on the rims/tires.

I sold my last set of 4 moabs with out tires for 250.00

 

that is some good flex man, mine doesnt get near that..very silver jeep too..haha

 

Looks nice!

 

That's what mine does after a long drive or slow speed wheeling. It's a misfire in one of the cylinders, most likely cylinder #3 due to heat soak. Did you get the check engine light? There are a number of tsb's to fix it but most of them don't really work (i've tried most). It only does it every now and then so i don't really worry about it.

 

Huh, I didn't think it got very hot, i only saw it up to like 220*, and it always runs at 210*. It was the first time I heard the electric fan kick in though. Funny thing is i think it did the exact same thing the first time I started it after I installed the lift. It didn't throw a code either time. I guess I won't worry too much if it doesn't happen too much.

 

It's not really about how hot the engine gets, but the injector having vapor building up on it causing the misfire. It happens randomly, code or not, especially on the newer xj's with the different style injection system. It's very common and not harmful. I wouldn't worry unless the engine blows up.
