Outstanding progress, it looks great.

 

wow looks really nice, and good choice on shocks

 

Ah I love the monos.

Had just the MX6s at first then found the REs and it rides pretty dang good to be at almost 7".

 

Nice jeep man i'm problly askin a stupid ? but why are your front shocks up side down ? thanks

 

They're monotube design. Made to go that way. Rears are like that too.

Thanks man

 

Do they perform better that way i need new shocks the ones that came with my lift suck bad

 

Oh yeah man. They're a lot better than the regular twin tubes you get in any regular ole lift kit.

Pricey but worth it if you DD it.

 

i love a xj on 35"s yours looks sick with those wheels too

 

Thanks man. The 35s are HUGE! lol

 

i love how everyone who doesnt no xjs r like u gotta 3 inch lift u should b able to fit 35s.they dont get it that the xjscame stock with like 27 or 28s and 35s r like 7 inches bigger than stock.

 

Yeah I know right. When I told ppl I had 5" of lift they were like no way.

Now on 35s and 7" there's no telling what kinda numbers are gonna get throw out there lol. Specially from guys with fullsize trucks who can clear 35s with 3" BLs lol

 

Well went wheelin Friday.

Carnage is a bent axle shaft in the 8.25 and a blown RE mono...dang it...

But that should be fixed within the next 2 weeks.

The Toyos did really good once I got them aired down enough. Started at 10-12 and dropped to 9 psi around half way through the day.

Made bumpstops for the rear and finished my front ones Thursday night. They held up all day wheeling so thats good.

Pics of the wheeling:


Photographer missed me coming up the good ledges behind my Jeep...:









After fixing the shaft and shock Im getting a RE HD track bar and brace and steering box brace. Then comes a little down time for it to rest after the wheeling weekend in a few weeks...

 

Well, its been interesting driving around with the bent shaft and busted shock...

Gotten used to it now but Ive got to decide on the shaft and order it tomorrow so hopfully itll be here by the weekend and I can get it swapped out along with the 8.25's pinion seal.

I put some extra diff fluid in both diffs and swapped out for a new camo steering wheel cover! thats about Ill Ive done lately. Still trying to recover funds from my 2 vacations in June lol.


Here soon Im going to try and redo the Y-link/tranny crossmember and move the link mounts forward about 1.5" because theyre extended at least that far and Im going to replace the all thread with some ballistic fab joints to keep the LAs quieter LOL. Good clunk from them now which is annoying around town and offroad...Then will come the roof rack Im going to build. Real slimline and cheap. Out of some 1"x1" square tubing about 4" high and 40" long. Bought an awesome shovel to go in it and whenever i find a spare thats where itll go for wheelin...

 

that thing is sexy man nice cherokee for sure them moabs a bad ***

 

Thanks! I liked your green one on 35s but now the 2 door is pretty aight too. Better to beat on IMO LOL.

Gonna swap another shaft in Saturday probably. I heard that the shock is backordered but Im gonna swap in a shock from my Bronco for now LOL.

Gonna start on a roof rack next week prolly. Then, a reciever tire carrier.
