Made my own RTI ramp!

20* ramp a stock cherokee gets a score of 399
20* ramp i got a score of 868


not to shabby for still using 3" lift shocks!

I used this method:
Tire lift/0.345/wheelbase x 1000=20* ramp score.


mind you i also ran out of blocks and the rear tire still had a pretty solid footing.

30" is not to bad of lift tho!

Took my 91 on it's first trail with me. Slaughterhouse Gulch Colorado. Rather easy but there is one wicked sweet hill with some awesome paths. Can't wait to tackle Red Cone since it's open.

No pictures of Slaughterhouse but I will definitely get some on Red Cone.

Fixed the cruise control and capped off the charcoal can

Also hooked the vent back up to my gas tank so it runs better now.

Did a coolant flush and put in a 180 thermostat.

found out my wheel hubs were shot.

replaced both wheel hubs in the Schucks parking lot in 40 minutes.

got an alignment.

picked up backing plates, calipers, rotors, and all hardware for my disk brake conversion (including E-brake cables and soft lines) and cleaned/painted the calipers and backing plates.

had a buddy throw a firecracker in my window, which burnt a whole in my carpet.
all i have to say is sucks to be him...
