me and a buddy were watching him. we had a bet on when the axle would come out from under the jeep. the way it was moving around i have a hard time beliveing he made it out under his own power. there seems to be enough ppl here running them w/o problems so that is a good thing. its alot better...

has noone had problems with drop brackets? i've never been a fan of them. besides loseing ground clearence your adding a lot of stress on the weak stock brackets. there is a local guy running drop brackets and when he hits the brakes or gas his wheelbase changes 3". you can see the unibody move...

what do you want to know about it. ive installed them. my brother is running there 8.5. i tried talking him into the 6.5 but its his jeep and thats what he wanted. it goes really good, i just think its too tall.

thanks, its my dads. ive been wheeling for 11 years and he has always been into dragracing. he sold his mustang to build this and hasnt looked back. took about 4 months of nights and weekends. its his first "real" 4x4. sad part for me is it wheels better then my CJ ive been tweaking on for the...

4.0 aw4 with shift controll mod, 231/dana 300 doubler, 14 bolt and dana 60. welded front, detroit rear, 4.56 R&P. ballistic 1.25 joints on front triangled 4link. rear leafs flip around and slip and twist traction bar. completely flat skid from oil pan to rear yoke. H1s with pressed centers and...

how about 6" and 42s? lot of work, completely remade inner finders and 117" WB but works great.

have you looked at BDS? really nice long arm and LIFE TIME warrenty. even if you brake wheeling, they will cover it. spring sags, they cover it. goes on good. real four link, no radius arm crap.

the one with the BDS has only been on 2 rides, once in Gilmer and once in Hidden Falls. its a real good kit. i install for a living so i deal with a lot of brands and BDS is by far my favorite. the flex is good. the rear springs are taking a while to brake in but that may mean they will last...

first run, two F-toys flopped on this before he tried it. this trail gives alot of people a hard time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJi8pjP8xdc

thanks for the replys, tera flex makes one if anyone else runs into this. this XJ is about 6 months into the making. could be done in a few days but money is slow coming in so till will prolly drag out till august. I dont have a pic of my brothers but it is an 01 4 door with a 6.5 BDS long arm...

fyi, not related to the question but heres a little background on the XJ. dont remember what year but it was an NON vacume 4wd. was stock but we quickly change that. it now has a fully 1/4" plated frame, 1.75 exo cage, 117"wb, dana 60 and 14 bolt, 1.25 ballistic joints on front triangled 4 link...
