Thanks a lot y'all! I appreciate the encouraging words. I really am loving this rack! I feel like my gutters are gunna give out way before it does.

You're right, I'm really kicking myself for not getting the hi-lift mounts now! I should have listened to you bud.

Looks Good! Mine is going under the knife probley around the end of the month same lift same size tires. One question I have is hows the ride with the short arms?

looks good man, good work!!

The front is actually pretty smooth, Especially with these tires. Other ones I had were older and were hard. I also keep these around 28lbs on the street. Now the rear is a little rough, probably because of the shackle angle plus I went with the nitro shocks. However, the rear improved as well when I went to these tires. Good luck man, let me know how it turns out!



Gettin packages like this will make you happy happy happy!

Well man I'm pretty new at the 4wd world and didn't know that website existed. Thats pretty cool though, you live in BCS? I know, I need to go to BVORR and check it out. Gettin my gears and locker put in at J&K this week. Then I'll be ready to go out there.

I am there nearly every weekend.
BVORR is having a meeting this Sunday. Its free to come wheel so post up on tx4wd and come join us!

4.88s installed with spartan front locker! Clicks when I turn but what I hear that's pretty normal.

Found some body trim for my front fenders. Also coated under my rear fenders. Plan on doing the front too, but I'm waiting until I get in my extended bumpstops.

Chumbucket

Well I got my bumpstops in and finally got a day off to install them. Wouldn't you know my fronts are the wrong size. Oh well, got the backs put on and the front fenders undercoated. I'm gunna see if quadratec will swap out the fronts for me.

Looking good man!
Have you taken it out to BVORR yet?

You are going to want to cut and hammer back those inside pinch seams in the rear of the front fenders or else you will rub it and cut down a tire when you flex.

I am very glad that I cut and hammered mine on my white cherokee because I was definitely stuffing the tires and could rub it on that back seam out at BVORR. If I didn't modify them, I would have cut my tires flat for sure.

Once I get my "new jeep"s engine back in, I will be back out at BVORR wheeling!

Chumbucket

Naw bud, I haven't gotten off on a Sunday that lined up to go out there yet, I want to though. Thanks for telling me about those pinch seams. I've been looking at those since I cut my fenders wondering what to do with them. Do you just cut and fold similar to the rear? I did go to the hill country this weekend and finally put her to the test on some rocks and hills. I'll put up some pics and vids later if I can figure out how to do the videos.

Chumbucket

She did very well and exceeded my expectations. I would like more travel up front, but that will come in time. For now I'm going to wheel her how she is and work on fixing little things (well after I put on my new Serious Steering!)

indirocz28

Yep, cut and fold them like the rear, go all the way up to the center of the fender well.

Pics look great!
