I just checked out all 6 pages. Excellent work!!!

 

Thank you, I'm pretty impressed with what it can do!
Maiden voyage to Moab included some rough trails and she performed pretty well!

 

Thats just another reason why cleveland sucks. There are no trails at all.

 

truly amazing clean super epic awesome XJ build man! I sure hope my 98 will look like that one day!

 

Thanks alot, your rig can be whatever you want it to be. Its just a matter of how much blood, sweat, tears and $$$ your willing to put into it. In my opinion its all worth it.

 

Jeep looks great man. Have you experienced any vibes? What did you do to overcome the issues if any?

 

Thank you, and. Post #71 addresses my solution to the slight vibes I experienced.

 

Awesome didn't even know that was available.

 

Just came across this tonight, and now subscribed!

I like what your doing here. Something I am headed towards, all be it slow. Keep us updated!

 

Just fell upon your thread man! looking good! surprised I hadn't seen it until now. When are those relocation brackets going on? which ones did you go with? excited to see it sitting at 5" and 33's! Pritchett canyon is coming up in your future!

I need to make a trac bar brace/bracket like the one you got!

We all need to get out and do a run some time soon!

 

I'm liking the look of the RC brackets like you run. I'm gonna order em up as soon as uncle sam gives me my paltry return. And yes, Pritchett is on my wish list, heck I already dove into a bunch of the other tough trails I thought impossible. I'm just gonna make sure I have a permanent post it note on the dash to remind me to "Beware of the skinny pedal!", No good can come from over exuberance!
I do secretly hope my lapse in sanity was a good show though, Lol!

 

Slow and steady wins the race! taking 15 mins to rethink the approach is faster then fixing a shock/tire on the trail! lol

Oh yes it was a good show! its all good as long as where having fun! Pritchett Is within reach locked(rear) with 33's, that's how I did it. gave my sliders a work out But it was fun. should probably plan other trails for a bit, but Don't chicken out if it comes up! we can get you threw it!

I have the HD brackets, but they all look like they will do the same thing. I like how the RC brackets are Fully bolt on. (the new HD ones are too thought)

Either way I like your approach to building this!

 

I'm in awe of what you're able to do when it comes to building up your XJ I've got a 99 that I'm leaving bone stock. I broke my drivers seat and am having a heck of a time figuring out how to install the brackets to the seat, so my seat riser will install properly on the new one. Now's the time I wish I had your abilities, but for a retired old (66) paper pusher,
(accountant) what do you expect? Also wish I was in SLC rather than Colorado Spring. I could use your help!! What would take you probably 30 minutes to figure out, will take me a couple of day to figure out, fix, and install.

 

Thank you for the kind words, I wish I had more progress to post up but I'm kind of at the expensive part now (gears and bigger tires).
Practice, practice, practice and it gets easier the more you fool around with them. My son and I lifted his 3-1/2" today, sucker fought us every step of the way. Still managed just 8 hours between pull in and pull out time though, mighta been shorter but my boys in the same boat your in (still learning) and everything tends to kick his butt, Lol!

 

Double post, oops!
