My new build: '92 XJ

[D3UC3S]

Right on!

I had the same problem with the pressure switch...freaked me out bc it was alot of oil for such a small part. Def wanting to see some finished pics and to see it out on some trails with us.

[Revmaynard]

Soon enough!

Just waiting on the shackles at this point.

[Revmaynard]

Got my flares in today! Just waiting on the shackles at this point. Hopefully the lift/flares will be on by this weekend!

[Revmaynard]

Rear shackles are here, Fat Bob's Garage adjustable 1.5'' - 2''.

Nice! That cherokee will go wherever dude. Wouldnt be surprised if it could out wheel both the rides next to you when you take the swaybars out of the picture. They are awesome.

I was the leader all day with these guys. 40's and tera50 on the tj, and Kevins monster.

[Revmaynard]

Yea man, they're great! The tan '12 Rubicon JK with the Pentastar/bolt ons is nice, we actually raced the JK and the YJ yeseterday for some fun out back. The YJ has a Chevy 350 in it. lol But all the 35's+ at work make my 31's seem puny! I'll probably pick up a set of 33x12.50x15 Mickey Thompson Baja MTZs once I lift and get the flares/cutting done.

[D3UC3S]

Hahaha...Tire envy is a bitch!

Ya you will def want 33s. That little bit of height definately helps keep your diffs off some rocks.

[Revmaynard]

Lift and flares Friday. Also installed an adjustable trackbar and sway bar disconnects.

Last morning pulling out of the driveway in stock form:







Needs brakes asap.



Busted track bar. Good riddance!









It sits level, but it was parked on an incline.



Severe death wobble caused my to tow it home 12 miles. Luckily I get free roadside assistance.





Doing a heavy duty steering kit and ball joints this week, then an alignment. That should take care of it.

[ATLSRT8]

Looks great man! Hope you can make it out on some trails with us when mine is done being built.

[D3UC3S]

Sick dude! Hope that DW goes away. Thats a PITA.

[Revmaynard]

I hope so, this DW has me pissed off. Lol

[Revmaynard]

Just been driving it and enjoying it.

[Sir_Christopher]

damn dude! that shit is sweet!!! makes me want to get one and lay in the mud.

[Revmaynard]

Haha thanks man!

[Relentless]

He aint lying. I want one now lol

[Boosting EG]

looking good

[Revmaynard]

You all will learn quickly I am a picture whore.

[Revmaynard]

Took the headlight covers off. I think I like this look more.



This pulley started getting load on my way to work this morning....this was all that was left when I changed it at lunch today.

[D3UC3S]

Welcome to the never ending project... XJs are great but damn, its always something

[Revmaynard]

Loud* haha yea man, I've done more maintenance on the Jeep than I have on the wagon in two years! Here's a poser shot from the other day. Sway bar was still connected.

[CptWitwiki]

I really want a jeep, and this just makes me want one more.

[Revmaynard]

Pulled the trans from my wagon this weekend so I'll be driving the Jeep all week. Thinking of installing these for the time being until I get a bumper.

[Revmaynard]

Got some big boy tires!





Not sure if I should lower the wagon or lift the Jeep more to get the hood/roof lines level.

Not sure if I should lower the wagon or lift the Jeep more to get the hood/roof lines level.

Both. Later, QD.

[D3UC3S]

More lift is a higher COG..... Not really optimal. Just set up your bumpstops and trim some more metal! Your downtravel is where you win!

[Revmaynard]

Got a little muddy today!

[tnomud]

Got a little muddy today!

SO, you like a little mud on your rubber?

[Revmaynard]

I like as much mud on my rubber as I can get without getting stuck or breaking something.

[Revmaynard]

Did brakes last night and replaced my hvac panel and plugs. Got the AC working after that but I must have a vacuum leak somewhere because my vents aren't working. lol

[Revmaynard]

Blew a tie rod end so I went ahead and swapped out to the heavy duty steering kit on lunch today.

1.25'' DOM tubing and 7/8ths tie rod ends.

[Revmaynard]

Had a pretty eventful day. Installed my CB radio, got it and the antenna brand new for $45. Flushed the cooling system, replaced the upper and lower radiator hoses, and thermostat and gasket. Wired up my HIDs to a toggle switch, and contemplated replacing the drivers motor mount but I think the sun beat me. haha








A little while back I fixed my transfer case linkage after the flanged bearing was missing by making a new spacer and getting a new flanged bearing.





Also had a friend at work weld this ballstud for the hatch back in place.

[Revmaynard]

Wasn't coding or anything, but I swapped the o2 out today.

[Revmaynard]

Picking up a set of 4.5 inch leaf springs for my Cherokee tomorrow, the heavy-duty spring and shackle isn't cutting it anymore.

[Revmaynard]

Got some 4.5'' packs with some 6 degree shims today. Might not use the shims, but at least I got some decent leafs!

[D3UC3S]

I spy a nice bumper back there too!

[Revmaynard]

Hahaha naw, that's an ol' crappy bumper from a CJ7 that I grabbed for my friend to cut up for his rig!

[Revmaynard]

Got the leaf packs swapped today, it wasn't terrible since the bolts had been taken off recently and when I did them last I cleaned the threads with PB Blaster and a wire brush. I didn't really have the right hand tools I needed, but I made due. I'm really happy with the outcome, I imagine once it settles it will sit level. This is on the 1'' section of the adjustable shackle so I can always go up a hole if it's sitting to high in the rear.

[Mad Mike]

Nice Jeep. I'm about to replace my stock leafs that have a 2" add a leaf in them for a brand new set of 3.5" leafs.

I really like the look of your Jeep.

[Revmaynard]

Thanks man, I appreciate it! I had heavy duty leafs with the adjustable shackle so it didn't sit level and I never wanted to waste time on AAL. Pos pics of yours when you get the packs in!
