Duals on an XJ... but thats a straight 6 :( cry about it.

Hey Meeks, I don't get it. Whether some guy fabricated some part on his jeep, or maintains the up keep and appearance of his rig. He still has pride in his jeep.
So why the put down. :dunno:

You're very right in saying this.. and I do understand that this is a Cherokee forum and its not always about Offroad.. and maybe I am wrong to give him such a hard time.

A few of you guys are having difficult time understanding where I am coming from, and I am just going to suck it up.. and leave this alone. Its a nice Cherokee, infact its one of the nicest Cherokees on here, and if it does get nominated I will most likley vote for it.

I just don't like knowing it will be a pavement pounder. It hurts me inside. Just like seeing rich people park sports cars in there garages and never taking them to the track. Or buying a quad, or dirt bike and never driving it.

But well-- its his money, his Jeep. He can do what he wants with it.


--- Not only that, my comments were directed towards the owner of this Jeep? Maybe I should have PM'd him.

i say nice rig man!!

i just would be careful with what the pipes are heating under it!!

Nominated??? You have no idea.

LOL!!!!!

I will vote too....you are a jackass....thats my vote.

You rag on someone for having a "pavement pounder". If thAts what he wants, then let him have it. You don't need to bash anyone on her for not "using" there Heep the way YOU think they should.

There are plenty of people on this forum who have 2 wheel drive Jeeps....what about them? Are they lesser than the 4x4's?

 

[AKswampheep]

LOL.. that half mile trail i was talking about...

I said its nothing a XJ on 31's couldnt handle, as in... 31's are probably the smallest tire you could run, with probably 4.5" lift.. I really understated that one.. My red jeep, the first one that got rear ended?? It didnt really have the easiest time making it out there, as it didnt have lockers. Actually it had a hell of a time.

Im not pulling some kiddy shit ~ "your mom is fat" ~ Im just saying, I put time and effort into this one that I would like to make WORTH my time and effort, with it being very capable off road, but yet have the killer looks, or at least thats what i was going for.

Ok, see this as like buying a mustang. Every mustang owner is cocky, its the truth. Every mustang owner burns tire. So youre saying, that if some dude whom had a twin turboed 396 small block shoved in there, his car all waxed up, and did nothing but put around all night, would he be a poser? From your definition of a poser, this would apply. My jeep gets used, not abused. In a sense you could get mad and say because i dont go to the badlands and wheel the fuck outta it, its not used. I just hauled a 410 olds engine with everything to build it, 70 miles away, then after that i drove down our 4 wheeler trails about a mile to the riverbottoms to meet some friends. But, my point hath been proven.



It sees enough

um...... yes

:dunno:

 

[IslanderOffRoad]

Sorry.

man, thats just rude.

 

[AKswampheep]

i know

= )

Its not the truth though, as i was just trying to settle a disagreement.
His is better in the eyes of a hardcore wheeler, mines better in the eyes of someone who likes really clean XJ's? I guess? who knows.

Sweet thread! High Pwn@g3 levels for sure....

 

[camarors8992]

I will my XJ a few times every month, that doesn't mean that I can't have a clean, sharp looking jeep. You just have to take it easy and stick to obstacles that aren't going to kill you. Don't get me wrong, I have a few light scratches from narrow trails, but I've rubbed most of them out.

After a wheeling trip:

The next day I cleaned it up and mounted the lights:

I love when a simple thread about an exhaust setup turns into an extravaganze of douchebaggery.

 

[chrslefty]

and still no sound clip !!

 

[gregmondro]

looks good

duals on an online engine just isn't my thing though, but it does look good

That aint no shit.

Camarors - I just love how dirt seeped out of every little nook and cranny for the next 8 months that i drove my blue jeep on the road.

 

[AKswampheep]

and uncc civilengineer - I was exagerating on that 3000+, Im just had sitting around, a niceass cherokee, and everything i needed to lift it, plus, brand new rims and tires just sitting there with like 10 miles on them. BTW i couldnt even afford a jeep like yours... i could hardly afford mine that was 3,250 out the door...

 

[rhino317]

sound clip?

Yep, I got mine dirt cheap from a lady I work with (including the ARB and rails)....

 

[AKswampheep]

I had to drive 200+ miles just to get mine close to being that cheap.

cant hear it that great just wind why didnt u just put the camera by the exhaust and rev it?

 

[Vanquish]

I am in the pretty much exact same boat as swampheep here. I've destroyed 2 trucks off-roading (Both XJ's of course.) My third one:



Is far too nice to be destroyed, as it didnt cost me $1000. In fact 13 times that. I'm also buying a lift and tires this weekend. I'm a "posuer" I guess.

I didnt need another $1000 beater which I didnt feel bad destroying. However I have had my fun, and just REALLY got sick of fixing shit all the time. So I bought one that didnt need fixing. I dont want to wheel it, but I will when I can. However all the trails around here, will destroy the body(which is how my last 2 were destroyed.) I have no need to wheel this truck hard, however its getting lifted and will be cleaned religously.

Swamp, don't take these shitheaded opinions to heart(although I'm sure you haven't) I once had the same attitude. Then I bought a shiny one. It's not about the fact he doesnt use it, it's the fact he STILL CAN!!!!!!!!

It's not like he lowered it and put 24" rims on it. Shut up and let him be...all of you. It's still a Jeep and will still outwheel most of the people's trucks in this thread (Excluding mine ) He just doesn't choose to. Pulling up beside a Ranger or a Toyota and knowing I can get further into the bush then him, is good enough for me.

 

[AKswampheep]

Thank you much.

And about the vids, my camera is shitty, that sound is all it picks up :/
