I think todays winner was the fellow who was proud of stealing tie rod ends off a chevy truck, and was going to weld them directly to some schedule 40 tubing for steering.

i was banned from xj and mj proud tonight... guess they didn't like my steering upgrade...

 

[DrMoab]

I didn't think that was possible.

I didn't touch that thread, but touche'. It wouldnt surprise me one bit if that was a serious post.

I try to help people out on there, but there is always some 18 year old kid who was given a trophy for last place all his life that will disagree with you to the grave.

Here are some actual things I have heard there... And just the ones off the top of my head right now...

Radius arms are king and you need 14" travel shocks(minimum) for maximum flex. If your coil springs don't fall out, you are doing it wrong. No limit straps or bumpstops, because why would you limit your flex?

Anywhere a 1 ton tube buggy on 40's can go an xj on 32's and a limited slip rear can go. Because you know, driver skill.

If your check engine light is on. Just remove your 02 sensors. It will run better without them.

Straight pipes and gutted cats make a 4.0 sound like a V8 and make it faster.

If you run lucas oil stabilizer you will get 20% more horsepower and 20% better fuel economy.

Bent control arms ride better than straight control arms.

Instead of buying extended brake hoses you can just loop a hard brake hose around a few times and will stretch as your suspension cycles.

It is perfectly acceptable to bolt a chevy tow hook where the swaybar body bushings used to go.

I feel like most of this is random sarcasm or "trolling" is the new term i believe. either way, purposefully incorrect info to be an idiot in public, not just in their own home.

Just to ease your mind. they were brand new tierods and there is 1/4" wall DOM off camera.

he's right though, that is definitely something that would have been posted seriously on there.

 

[Olympus Off Road]

Like the guy who used 2.5" DOM for control arms, but thought the 4 stock transmission crossmember studs/bolts would be more than strong enough to attatch them to.

Or tractor supply heim joint 4 links.

 

[holysirsalad]

Hmmmmm where'd that post about the "800 pound bumper" go

 

[go1lum]

I find that group comical.

Its pretty solid entertainment. You can't even make up some of the stuff you see on there.

 

[blakexcore]

I get on there solely for entertainment. Someone was selling a stinger/light bar thing that bolts to the stock bumper.

 

[iluv83vettes]

I just got approved to be in the group. I can't wait for all the great tech I will learn.

I can't believe you have to request to join that crap.

 

[Lowrange2]

At first it was join and done.

Then it was changed to a closed group, by request, so that crap wasn't being spewed all over my friends personal news feed.

This was one of my all-time favorites.

Those "stripper lady" rims are enough to scream DOUCHE anywhere that Jeep goes.

That's the new hot setup on the facespace too.

This was a good one last night. This is a 4.5" lift, and if you disagree, you are wrong. He posted it because he wants "plans" to put an exo on it.
