Ah, I lost a screwdriver in one of my vehicles today.

 

Three questions....
1) Are you serious?
2) Do you mean UP Eagle's nest or TO Eagles nest? You can get to it open....
3) Are you sure you know which obstacle Eagles nest is?

You really think a relatively stock XJ can get up this?

Note - in that picture I am stopped and have zero tires on the ground. Getting up in most XJ's would require extreme rock stacking - to the point of taking all triumph out of it, if there are even enough rocks in the area to accomplish it. Which I doubt.

 

Good luck! a lot of people struggle to even get up to it open diff, and you better have good sliders lol

X2! I'll bring some beer!

No good! but at least its not to far from home yet... lol

I should be able to run your brake lines back to you tomorrow. I got mine all made up. thanks again!

hahaha definitely. Jason you where a bit left in that pic one day I'll walk the nest... may not be in my XJ but I will do it!!!

Just a FYI I drag hard with 5.5" lift and sliders, hard enough to where it was just about stopping all momentum. I also wouldn't really "try" it with less then 35's as the undercut on the drivers side it pretty big, let alone open-open... lol

 

another pic for reference of the obstacle head on....


and just for the sake of showing the ledge height.... (taken a week ago tomorrow)

 

Water pump radiator t sat new hoses new t sat housing on one jeep oh and put the bumper back on lol on the other the brake lines on the locker in new brakes and rosters just need gear oil and I'm ready :-) next SYE

 

I do like this option.

 

Get her done! lol running cool now?

Just a FYI as I had never heard of them until I was Informed... 4crawler.com has some pretty cool items for leaf sprung options. I am not a fan of degree shims, ect. they will make you some weld on degree plates to weld onto your spring perch to re-degree it without adding BS to your spring pack, and they aren't going to break like a lot the POS cheap ones... they also sell offset shims and can make any kind of shim to your liking. any-who, http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/ForSale/Shims.shtml

 

Yeah runs real cool now I've never had a radiator blow apart like that

 

No worries, glad it helped you out tristin.
Eagles nest at the top of constrictor? I have yet to travel up that far. Last time I went, a kid in my group broke vac 4 wheel drive just trying to go up constrictor.

 

good good! I had one split the seam, used channel locks to re-crimp it for a temp fix lol. but never blown off a tank like that!

 

I think I needed to change the cap I swaped it from the pressure tank set up to one where I cut the top hose and put in a cap there

 

I don't like the plastic overflow bottle and cap. Seems if you tighten the cap just a hair to much, you have to tighten it again.

 

Yeah that and my heater didn't work with that set up

 

We switched my dads over to a closed system. Best 50$ ever

 

Where you located at?
