I'm still on the fence about what size rims to run.. Either 15x8 with a 3.75 backspace or 15x10 with a 3.75 backspace. Suggestions anyone? Trying to get all the suggestions I can

W/ 33x12.50x15 baja claws of course..

 

Putting my rustys t-case drop in tomorrow after work. I'll be sure to post a couple pics of the driveline before and after.

 

Subd!
This is an awesome build! Im going for 3 inch on 33's also!

 

Thank you! Nice what kind of lift are you going to be running? I like the whole low cog thing so that's what I'm going for with this rig. Still a TON of things I have planned so stay tuned.

 

Im planning on trying the s-10 bastard pack with v8 zj coils up front with some spacers! I'll see how that holds up untill I can afford a bigger lift and sye!
Im researching tc drop kits now because of the vibes your getting with your 3 inch just in case. It doesn't seem like to big of a deal to drop it an inch

 

Definelty not a big deal at all.. I'm guessing you have a 98.. It's really hit or miss for some reason with the 97+ XJ's if you will get vibs with a 3inch lift. For example. I did my buddies 99 with a 3inch lift no vibes at all. Then mine has vibes... The rustys kit that I have it 28 bucks. I was going to put it in tonight but I'm doing some overtime at work unfortunately.

 

Decided to knock out my rustys tcase drop kit tonight after work,in the dark,in an alley,in ocean city,laying on the concrete....lol Let me first say that I have probably said every curse word known to man aimed towards Chrysler in the last couple hrs. Why in the world they use 1 bolt and 1 stud on each side is beyond me. The left side went smooth. Used my stud extracter set and got the first stud out and the bolt with ease. Put the spacer in and tightened her up. Here is where it got fun. Go to do the right side and got the bolt out of course but the stud wouldn't budge even with my trusty extractor set. Vice grips-no dice. Had to use my favorite tool- one handed pliers. They literally work wonders. Definelty saved the day..well night.. Then I used a wratchet strap hooked into a couple holes on the unibody to line the holes up and installed. Good to go. Easy as pie.

 

Well just took the jeep to get gas... NO more vibes! Woohoo! Taking a nice hour long drive today to do some side work.. On a lifted xj of course..

 

You eventually going to get an SYE?

 

Yes! Absolutely. I'm having very very slight vibes at around 52 other than that I'm good. They probably would go un noticed to someone else . But yes sye Definelty coming.

 

Here is a quick shot of my jeep with the jeep I will be working on all day today!

 

Im just gonna go with a HnT from IRO. Going to order it soon actually.

 

What a day.. Did a ton of stuff on this guys xj and just got home. It's snowing like crazy here!

Oh and one more thing.. The jeep is packed with 4 mickey Thompson baja claws!!!!!

 

I'm interested in seeing how it works for you.. What's the price like on them?

 

Alittle bit of a sketchy drive home through the snow with the jeep packed to the brim with my tools and the tires, but they are here! Just have to order my rims now
