spearfish canyon?

Most of the trails we ran are about 15 minutes outside of Deadwood off of 385 although there are plenty more that require a bit more driving. The wheelers in the area work very hard to keep their trails open so they are a bit secretive on their locations so if you want to wheel the area I suggest joining up with one of their organized runs like Camp Jeep or the Dakota Territory Challenge. If your local then hook up with one of the clubs.

Is the upper Tack Bar Bracket hitting the Tie Rod on the drivers side?

Looks like it, judging by the marks on the Tie Rod.

It looks like the tie rod is rubbing the diff cover.

Yeah, I'm thinking not. Maybe it's just a clean spot....... Or like Mike L said, maybe the tie rod rotated and we're seeing a rub mark.....

Your the winner :laugh2:

After that was pointed out I had to scratch my head a little as to why that was there. When I washed it last night I noticed there were no scratches, just a clean spot. I then remembered that about 20 minutes before that shot was taken a couple of my trackbar mount bolts had worked loose so I hopped out and tightened them up. I rubbed my big noggin up against it when I was laying under there.

What springs did you end up using to get your ride height?

 

[Rock Yacht]

The fronts are 5.5" RE coils that are several years old while the rears are 2.5" OME "heavy rate" coils.

The old style MTR's were getting a bit bare so I upgraded to a set of 37" Irok radials and all I can say is.......

I LOVE'EM!!!!!

Let Bob drive

This guy normally wheels a JK on 43's. He compared my XJ to wheeling a go cart :laugh2:

Here's his JK

You probably noticed that it's getting more body damage. We've been progressively taking it through harder and harder trails.
