So as some may know we have been undecided on what we are going to bring to winterfest. So jeffrey and myself talked the company into giving us 5000.00 to build a XJ up and bring it up there to wheel, so we started making a list and checking it twice trying to find out whos been oh hell sorry caught carried away lol. Anyways after bout an hour or two they took the crushed are dreams rattle We have had a 97 4 banger tj in the shop with out axles and all torn apart for about 3 years now and decided that it was time to get on it. Good news is Jeffrey and myself still have total control over it but its just not an XJ. So the build begins.
Heres what we are thinking and remember we only have little over two weeks to decide order and build this before it is tested and put on the trailer to head up to attica.
1) Rough Country 4" long arm kit (no we dont offer it yet this will be the first one we have built)
2) Raceline Beadlocks with Dick Cepek Crushers 35x12R15 (never tested the tires off road so why not)
3) Caged not sure if bought or built cause of timeline
4) dana 30 and 35 (I know) both with superior axles (super 35) 4:88 gears. We would like Dana 44 but with time crunch a little hard to do.
5) Lockers front and rear: Front ARB rear Detriot
6) Rhino line the inside. probably not in time for WF
7) Get the damn thing running good as it has been sitting for right at 3 years and has not been started this whole time. And we robbed some parts from it last year to get the green Tj ready for WF08 lol
I will try to post pics and progress as I go
I posted this in Winterfest since it is the main reaon we are building it.
