  • Nother random pic thread..

    Here's some new pics of my jeep, saturday.

    New tires, new mods.









    Most people say you cant run 35s with only a 4" lift, I whipped out the plasma cutter, and went to town on the fenders. Cut off the fender flares and trimmed away at the sheet metal.
    Took alot of trimming on all 4 wheels to get it to that point.
    Right now my tie rod and pitman arm are hitting when I stuff the fender hard like this, after I un-bend them a little ( I dropped them on a big rock ), and then I'll cut a peice of metal off of my axle to allow for more flex, I should be able to hit my hood with the tire.

    My rear axle doesnt flex as much mainly due to the leafs are way to stiff as it sits, they need to be broken in.

        Strtracer i think you missed a bit of dirt while you were washing it for this thread lol.

        and you should've used Trans-X on your fenders---they would've rolled themselves

          Yea well apparantly word got out to the public about camarov6 and trans-x, I went to buy a pallet of trans-x, but there was a line of 300 people standing outside the store waiting for them to open, when the doors were unlocked people went on a shopping frenzy for trans-x and There was none left for me to buy.

          I was going to wash it with trans-x the same day, well... you see how well that turned out now didnt we...

          Thanks.. Other people post pics too!

                My jeep has death wobble too, pretty bad. Couldn't find the cause of it so I made it a stricly off road rig. She's a trailer queen.

                I'm on a few jeep forums, not "jeepforum" though.

                  Im also on jeepslimited (SouthSeaPirate for both)

                  It seems 99% of the time its a track bar. That would be my first guess for your ride too, but already sounds like youve tried it all.

                  Im going to get a new steering stablizer. I know its a cover but no vehicle should do that crap over a slightly worn part.

                  Trailer queen or not thats a damned nice rig! :bowdown:

                      When I got the jeep I put new brakes, wheel bearings, axle joints and that didn't fix it.

                      I took the track bar from my buddies jeep ( no D/W ) and it still didn't fix it.

                      Now I have no track bars, no sway bars, no bump stops, and no un-neccesary bracketry on the axles that would hang it up

                      Of course I'm still running stock dana axles, as soon as I can come up with a few grand I'm gonna swap in some 1 tons and copy my buddies flexy tj suspension...
                      The stock axles I have now have been locked front and rear, with 4.56 gears.

                        My offroad vehicle is the Camaro; it's the only 4 wheeled vehicle I have :(. My uncle just finished up a Jeep for his neighbor; rebuilt & cam'd 355 in it on 34" tires with a 1 ton setup under it. Everything that can be removed has :P; and if they sell a lighter composite part, he has it. Thing sounds like a beast and weighs next to nothing, but with all the money the guy has invested in it, I'd be afraid to take it out of the garage! I've been looking into pickin up a cheapo one to mess around with; just something to get muddy on the weekends that I can slowly build up
