idk how you guys just build a jeep for a few years and not wheel. it hasent even been one year and Im fed up with building and want to go wheel.

 

[chedisme]

So i finaly got my links in and have it sitting on its own weight. I think im going to move the spring percbes foward an inch.

Also i made friends with the local forklift place so their going to make all my hydro lines for me most likely for free.

 

[Luke95]

Nice XD

 

[kastein]

Awesome!

And yeah I don't know how people can go that long without wheeling. I blew up my XJ on the way to NACFest '11 and had the MJ "built" almost exactly a month later.

 

[Egodfrey]

i have not wheeled other then a day in the passenger seat since Dec 2011, **** you Army, afghanistan and ied's

and now who knows what will happen with my jeep

**** ME

 

[MoparManiac]

I built my MJ in stages over each winter so i could wheel over the summer.

that does suck.

thats what Im trying to do but it always seems to overlap into the beginning of the wheeling season.

That's why I wheeled red jeep when building black jeep. Back up wheeling rig is where its at.


PS, let's see some damn updates!!!

I'll show you mine if you show me yours

I still have to adjust the lower coil position.





I set them to be dead nuts on full bump but they look retarded at ride height.

 

[chedisme]

I lost about an inch of up travel when I added the dumb hydro mount. so now I have 3-4" of up travel. I can get it back but Id have to scrap my frame side track bar mount and bring it closer to the frame rail.


I just had a really good idea. I think. Ill brb.

never mind it wont be worth doing.

 

[chedisme]

I love mc mastercarr. They ship stuff so fast. I practicly have the stuff by the time they figure the shipping.

I got my hydro lines and fittings. The larger fittings i ordered for the suction line are too small. McMC sells fittings baced on line size so i ordered fittings for the 1/2" line i wanted to use but i guess 1/2"= no.8 fitti g in their sizing. I need no.10.


What coolers do you guys use?

I see alot of that tube style with the fins. But i think the traditional rad style would work better.

 

[MoparManiac]

I don't think you want to use a plate style cooler with PS fluid. Just what I've read.

I have a small tube and fin that works well for trail duty.

 

[chedisme]

Ok cool. Ill look into one of those.

I thoght the plate was ok but the tubes had to go horizontal not vertical. Or maybe the other way round. I forget.

 

[chedisme]

ordered my cooler, got most of my hydro lines built, and ate some Cheetos.

 

[chedisme]

just ordered more prothanes from JEGS. its BS that its free shipping but they charge you 10$ handling.

Im also going to order some 90 deg hydro fittings. but im waiting on some info from billy before I do.

 

[H8PVMT]

Amazon would have that to your door next day for half that

 

[chedisme]

i didnt know they sold prothanes.
