haven’t tried... only have 2 lug nuts a wheel rn lol. But it could roast the 38s surprisingly so I’m sure it could burn these 33s. Be a good way to test my posi

just a lil 2wd 5 speed 4 banger... May 4wd swap it when I do the 4.0 swap on my xj. If I do anything it’ll be little things until I decide where I wanna go with it and driving the hemi isn’t a big issue lol.
Gotta get it done! Ain’t no time to play around with how short summer is in Alaska. And thanks, the cop that pulled me over a few months ago got a kick out of em too lol

Somewhat of a first test drive. 5.38s on rollers is well pretty interesting... haha. Few things to wrap up, and we can start the break in process of the gears while I save for some 42s

well after cycling the suspension with shocks attached and not attacted, I’ll def need some longer shocks. I added the picture with them not attached just because. Need shocks with Atleast 2” more travel to be happy with the way the long arms drop. Also snagged a free set of 35s from work to roll on this summer til I can stomach 2k on a set of 42” sx2s

Went for a bit of a test drive now that everything’s all put together. Looks like imma have to pull apart the rear end and recheck everything before it wears in for good. Sounds like the coast side isn’t quite where it needs to be. Easy fix and then we’ll be able to start wearing em in proper

Well I’ll have 4wd now... rather than wait on the g2 hubs i was planning on ordering, went ahead and dropped the coin on some warn hubs from the local parts store. Once I get everything dialed in, I’ll drive the Jeep to the shop and mount my tires after hours if it hasn’t already been done

Well after a lil work looking into things, found out that it’s some slack in the tcase chain that’s causing the noise that I’m hearing. So on to the next piece of the Jeep that needs rebuilding. In the process of figuring that all out, went out and enjoyed some sunshine
