Weekend is over...what did you get done?

[XJfreakHO]

wow... hope i never have see my XJ in this much water!

...sure hope that's not your DD

I sunk my old jeep like that 2x, the first time I my jeep stayed running and I had to call a friend damn quick, took him 20 minutes to get there because I was out by belews, anyway... I went out of town, left my jeep in the untrustworthy hands of my buddy, he ends up going back to the same place without calling me first, and sinks it, the jeep died, had to replace the starter, alternator, and a few other things.
I dont have a camera, with my next jeep Ill be sure to take pics, most of my incedents happen at night when Ive been drinking at the lake so oh well.

The last time^^ Keep in mind I had 8.5 inches of lift and 35's.

As for this past weekend, I did nothing but look for parts for jeep build online and lay around since I have bronchitis.

my jeeper isnt a DD, but i do drive it to the offroad spots. i have made the jeep bigger, got rid of the 33's and installed some 36's. most of the bigger trucks dont like to go to corbett because its so much water, they all like mud. the pillow was for a friend, i have no back seats, so i brought a pillow to sit on.
here is a pic with the bigger tires

and in another waterhole

Built some obstacles for a driver training course being put on at the Manassas Virginia Jeep dealership. I already have about 50 small ones so I decided to build some big ones for this years event.

I didnt bother to disconnect. Just trying them out to make sure the obstacles are stable and behave the way I intended.

I added cross pieces under them with large gusetts and ran some all thread through them to insure they dont seperate. They will see about 20-30 rigs during the event and I want them to last for a few events.

bwfdrums,
Take a look at my avatar, want to guess where that is?

[shelbyluvv]

Can I play John?

 

[nosigma]

shelbyluvv,

Absolutely, the more the merrier, it would be great to see a fellow SoCal ex-patriot and talk trash. That would be one heck of a drive from Georgia just to drive over some wooden blocks.

Well, the weekend was kind to my jeep. Installed the Lock-rite in the D30 and the V8 ZJ tierod/draglink assembly on the front end and also got some 297 shafts out of a 97 ABS 6 cylinder ZJ. Man...that V8 ZJ tierod makes a huge difference!

 

[ChiXJeff]
