  1. depends... how well are they made? are they nice and beefy? also if ur ride is a bit rough they normally can make it smoother by reducing the drastic angle of the control arms at that height... its really up to you
  2. you will have to get stuck where he can still access you... why not go for it :brows: also that semi didnt really seem stuck... just could get traction. and that srap looked on the short side!
  3. got some more parts.... dreamed about having her mobile again
  4. well friday my gears came in and today(monday) my perches came in!! jeepinoutfitters is an awesome place to do buisiness awesome customer service and fast shipping! hopefully this weekend the 8.8 will be regeared and cleaned up some!
  5. when i bought my truck it had 3inch spacers in front(stock shocks-not good) and nothing in the back it looked fine with 31s look at my build thread. i wouldnt advise that large of a spacer. although with proper shocks that setup wouldnt have been terrible
  6. ok... i will go to the jy and pick up some plates for it. and i was planning on fabbing my own shock mounts. thanks!
  7. not too shabby! what will the trailer be used for?
  8. nice truck! and nice boat! what kind of fishing u do? most people here are a little weary when it comes to pulling with the stock bumper. you are most likely best off getting a reciever hitch. but I'm sure some others who pull with their bumper will chime in soon
  9. i have someone experienced who will be there with me to show me and oversee etc... i just want to make sure i have all the necessary parts when we go to put it all together
  10. ordered 4.56s forher and some spring pads... hopefully she will be driving over christmas break
  11. ok. so I'm ordering some 4.56 gears and what not for the truck, now I'm just wondering what else i need to do in order to install the gears? should i buy an axle overhaul? just certain bearings? there is alot of info out there its just not so clear it seems :???: i will be doing the same thing with my d30 front. also will the stock spring plates(things with shockmounts) work after the soa?( I'm not using the stock spring mount if it does work) i think thats all for now :dunno: thanks for all the help! and hopefully she will be on the road soon!
  12. you def. know what you are talking about. So thats good! :clapping: everything u said sounds good to me, i honestly can't think of anything else. I'm sure as you drive it some little gremlins might pop up, but a good start! post some pics up!
  13. hahaha nice. i sent a few
  14. the front dif would be a dana 30, and yeah id say it leaks preatty good
  15. tons of charlotte area guys getting on here. Nice! i love the truck!
  16. do not lock the 35. my 35 lasted about one trip off road with my 33ltbs. i am replacing with an 8,8 from an exlporer, many came stock with limited slip wich will give u good on road with decent off.

    MJ encounter

    a happy thing that happend to me, figured i would share. I was on my way home from the football game lastnight when i was passed by what i thought was a ranger, yota, s10 etc untill i looked to see a black mj lifted up a bit. i was in my grandfathers jk. we pull up beside eachother at the light, i look and he looks. so i crank down the window and say " i got an 88 i just blew the rear end out of." responce " nice, i just bought another 89, i rolled this one" the light turns and were on our ways. it was nice to be able to see another mj owner enjoying these trucks like it do :D
  20. amazong what the wheels and lights did! where in charlotte do you live? I'm just south
  21. great advice so far guys! thaks. and cw if i find 2 flanges i will let you know
  22. ok i bought an 8.8 for 75 bucks at the jy, not too bad of a deal. but i have a few questions! -where can i get the driveshaft flange needed to bolt up the shaft? -what would you do for spring perches? I'm going soa -i have calipers and thats about it. will the local auto store have the bolts to hook them up? -any tips advice things i will forget? help me!
  23. monday was a good day! we had an 8.8 pulled in an hour and a half with out to much trouble... now it just needs to be rebuilt.... and I'm missing all the ebrake parts :fs1: but for $75 i can't complain!
  24. all righty! wish me luck
  25. ok. thanks. what about the d30 front. isnt there a certain set of years with the bigger shafts, and to find them its abs or no abs? i can't quite remember :dunno:
