Thanks! Yeah thats the plan later down the road to make the underside flat.

No problem, we've been busy as of late so we haven't had time to make any episodes other than race coverage and miscelaneous things.

 

Did more slider and fender work. Ran out of gas so I couldn't get the top flare piece on, but the tube is there. Sliders are finished for now, need to put in a couple pieces connecting the center section at some point. Strong as hell right now, but could be better. If you notice, the sliders kick out a little. That was on purpose to help push away from objects and such Thats the theory at least. If anything it just looks cool.

 

Added in my dash bar. I keep adding things on. Wish I had the time to do it all in the very beginning. Oh well, keeps me entertained. Looks a lot more complete in the front now.

Oh yeah long arms this weekend finally.

 

Did another video thing. Went to an ECORS race. Sadly not racing this one. Hope you like it.

 

Its been awhile since Ive updated anything.

I got a killer deal on 4 shocks from a buddy. 12" Fox 7/8 shaft remote res shocks with 30/70 valving and flutter stack. Setup is gonna be just about right for what I need.

 

Also got 3rd at our race last month. Kind of a big deal to us. Survived long and short course. Only rolled once lol.

 

Congats brother! Looks great so far.

 

We did another video thing on our channel. Opinions vary on this topic but we just kept it simple and didn't get too far in depth regarding running electric fans and such. Coolers however I feel everyone should run one.

So check it out.

 

Did some work on the Jeep this weekend. Replaced thermostat/housing, water pump, threw on an IRO steering box brace and new SYE seal. Sometimes the simplest tasks are the most rewarding.

 

Put on some nifty coil spring retainers. Courtesy of Ironman4x4fab.

 

So I decided to jump on the seafoam wagon today. Haters gonna hate, i don't care. So far the only difference is a bunch of smoke engulfed the street for 15 minutes. Maybe I just haven't noticed yet or it hasn't fully ran its course.

I put a little over half or so in the vacuum line and the rest in the tank.



Update to follow if things improve.

 

Its been awhile since I've updated anything. My Mac screen decided to go do something else, so I've been without a computer for a couple weeks.

Big things have happened. After scratching my head on how to run my 11.5" Fox 2.5 shocks in the front. I figured it out. Decided to run with TandJPerformance XJ upper shock adapters and put my tabs off the LCA mount for the bottom.



The only issue one needs to worry about is the steering clearance. That was the main obstacle. The Caliper bolts will contact the shock so I couldn't run them off the axle like I originally tried. Second obstacle is an easy fix. Brake lines. The brake line bolt on the caliper needs to be oriented upward or else you risk getting your lines pinched and rubbed at full lock. Hard to explain, just how it worked out.



After all of that, boy am I happy with the performance of these bad boys. All the money I spent on the shocks definitely shine when you're going fast offroad. Pot holes and ditches are soaked up like its no ones business. ECORS is gonna be fun next year. Not to mention the flutter stack talks to you when you're mall crawling bumming around town. Good stuff.

So to celebrate decided to go be a zombie with friends for a zombie movie. Then proceed to roam the streets of downtown Wilmington, NC causing a ruckus.

 

Its been awhile. Been meaning to update this for quite some time.

Did some cage things. I guess thats the only thing worth mentioning. Everything else has been road trips and drone video stuff.











As you can see I am now in a position do something rash. Like truggy maybe? Basically if I roll I'm not gonna be that mad. We just got JD Squared Bender so we are all about to go crazy.

 

Over at our channel we have been working on something big. It's been a long time coming for us over at Enlisted Budget Videos. This is a trailer to a movie we are working on. It's aimed toward giving light as to why it is we do what we do. Why we enjoy wheeling and how we came into it. Not to mention the people we meet along the way and the experiences we gain. Hope everyone will enjoy this. Should be out January/February time frame.

 

Ive been yelling at myself to update my thread but always fail to do so.

Finally pulled my own ear.

The only major thing I recently have done is a full rebuild on a NP231 with a wide chain kit and 4:1 ratio conversion complimented with an Advance Adapters SYE. Also running the boosterwerks linkage.







Next I'm ordering some new build driveshafts. Then my drivetrain will be finally in decent order.

Also built a custom skid back in December. Branches off a Clayton Offroad Crossmember. If I were to do it again I would of made some changes, but it works. Not bad for 15 smackeroos worth of steel from the drop cut section(lots of left over material).



This also happened. New TC, Flexplate, and oil pump seal. I never want to that ever again.



While my jeep was under the knife I used the race jeep to wheel in Gulches, SC a few weeks ago. Good times, that park is no joke.
