i know many people say its dangerous to have hood spacers, but i want to try it out. see if it made a big difference or not. 1inch rubber plugs used.

and steering is much better now, not as much play. no pic of stab though.

 

Gotta love that Pine Barrens mud..... Haha. I personally avoid the water pits (not trying to flood my XJ) lmao.

I can't wait to finish replacing my brakes so I can go back to the pineys with my Jeep lol. DARN SNOW!!!!


Great build btw!!

 

thanks man!
and ya, first and last time (hopefully) with deep water/mud crossings, way to much to clean up.

i have to do my front driver side rotor too (warped i think)

when are you going to the pines? i wanna go too. you should come to north jersey and try stag hill sometime its more trails then mud. its in mahwah nj

 

Don't talk to me about cleaning mud.... My Jeep is still CAKED in peanut butter mud from the last time I went to the pineys.

Idk when I'm going out there next in my Jeep.. All depends on the weather allowing me to throw some wrench time at my Jeep haha.

 

Got myself a gift. 50" LED light bar baby!!!

 

i can lol its been almost a year and im still finding sand. i had to gut the whole thing after i sank it but gave me a reason to bed line it
worked out in the long run i guess.

 

i was thinking about lowering my jeep about 2-3 inches. im too tall right now. i dont want to buy any new stuff. i was wondering if anyone has experience just cutting the front springs and removing leafs in the rear? if so what is the best way to go about it.

 

DO NOT cut the springs lol, why do you think your to tall?

 

i felt tippy last time on the trails, and have been reading a lot about low center of gravity.

 

i knew it lol, even low cogs feel tipy

 

im lifted 8" too

 

ya but not as bad, how is your rear shackle angle and flex? mine is crappy gotta fix that too. ps the pic doesnt load

 

i have rear coils lol

 

i have the clayton pro series 8" 3link front 4 link rear

 

thats awesome! must ride really nice
