Awesome, I love seeing jeeps brought back from sure enough death. Its a great feeling. Keep up the good work my man!
|
Why thanks Guys
I have been working on shock mounts for my rancho 9000s |
Looking good.
Where'd you get the super charger? I have been thinking about adding a mild boos set up to mine since it would fit in place of my huge intake manifold. a little boost would help balance out my altitude I think. |
eBay for $50
It's a gm application. I believe from a 3.8L |

The one were you hit a bump at 45 and you are scared ****less because your wheel is vibrating and trying to take off for parts unknown.
|
Well theres 2 different types of death wobble the 1st is once you get up to a certain speed it starts or when you hit a bump has your xj been aligned yet? When you lift a vehicle usually throws it out of alignment because your pulling the body and frame away from the axles therefore throwing the steering out of wack
|
Ii hit a bump at like 25 and up and it starts. So I don't know exactly but if I'm over 25 and hit a bump it goes out.
No not yet I think I broke a tre so I was going to get it then do a alignment. |

Ah that could be a issue how hard Is that to find?

C8.25 can have disc brakes, direct from a Liberty. F8.8 can also have disc brakes, as the one in the bed of my Comanche does. D44 can also have rear disc, as the one I'm building will before I install it.
Just for the record. Also, the strength the C8.25 and F8.8 both depend on what year and what vehicle they're from. |
