This thing grips and powers through the corners like you wouldn't believe... I am absolutely amazed that a Jeep can handle this well.

Avec plaisir.
About 1k for the hardware/adapter brackets. About 500 for the piggyback and about 100 for the supercharger. Gunna add Meth so that'll be another 250ish. So about 2k all said and done for the supercharger stuff.

Headers and a full exhaust is also a good idea too. Lol
It makes people take a second look and then stare with an amazingly hilarious look of confusion on their faces.. Exactly what I built it to do.

 

i was gonna stop reading after the wheels, but i decided to keep going and im glad i did! this is badass!

 

Wow, now that good sir is awesome. I actually went looking for a supercharger kit for the XJ after looking at yours and damn they are pricey haha.

 

Stock steering too?

 

Which XJ? The Sprintex system I have on my other one was very pricy... Lol. But I've already proved that that system is capable of 12+psi, so it's not a bad way to go if you want to put it on a built 4.0 to run that kind of boost. Lol.
Idk what the limit of the system on racejeep is yet...
Yeah. Stock steering linkage. I'm trying to track down a "pop" in the front end that it's had ever since I got it, so I might look into seeing if the Rugged Ridge HD steering will work on this application...

 

Good. Lord. I like.

 

Know what would be awesome? A power rack and pinion steering setup

 

Dude, so *****in, can you take an acceleration video soon? 0-100mph D:

 

Where did you get the fiberglass leaf springs?

 

Are the fiberglass leaf springs coated in something, or painted over and over? It seems like those are the last thing you would want rotting.

 

How are those Harland Sharp rockers? An it's 1.6'? Does it come with keepers an springs? Does anyone know a kit for the valves also?

 

I'm using a spring kit from Flex-form plus a modified Astro set to get more spring rate. (basically it's a 2 leaf pack now)

They have an entire can of spray paint on them right now. Lol
They're not too shabby. I did notice better performance across the rpm range with a noticeable bump at higher rpm. They are 1.6 ratio (stock ratio) and it's just the rockers. Nothing else.

 

Today making it's Autocross debut!

 

Subbed!

 

Went autocrossing this weekend... I need to make a couple tweaks to make racejeep handle better. Forgot to pump up my tire pressure, so I ran 32psi all around.. Also need to put stiffer springs in the front. And of course get more seat time in it. This autocross was a really good shakedown run and helped me find a couple of gremlins. One being a throttle issue in left turns..

Vids to come soon.









Bumped into Gradon. It was pretty awesome being the only two Cherokees there.






Grid up!!


Photo I grabbed from one of Gradon's posts.


Saw a convoy of 2 HMMWVs on the way home.
