well this wasn't a regular bike, it was a super lite bike without any shock system like you see on most mtn bikes around here. And the tires are fat so the forks have to be a bit wider appears. But yeah these bikes aren't cheap by no means. People love their bikes up here.

Well now my steering is shot. Never was to happy with it in the first place. Had to cut off the front hole on the hysteer arms cause of the tight back spacing I was running and am now as well. Being stright arms vs the bent arms. so have crossover set. up. But I ssue is with the 4" stretch in the front I need to mount the draglink on top of the tierod as they are inline now. The original plan was to run DL to pass knuckle arm and since had to cut front hole off I no longer have 2 holes just the one. So the debate since ends are toast now anyways is to either run new set up with heims, (Ruff Stuff Kit), or replace ends and. Just mount the draglink on top of TR with a single heim double sheer set up and call it good. Or get some new arms and run the true hysteer like the origanl plan. Ummmm???

thats the good thing about my part of California. no snow. the bike in my avatar is my regular rider. Got a shot of one of those winter bikes today, guy says they are popular out in cali as well on the dunes as I guess they are great in the sand as well as the snow. Pretty cool. Image Not Found

Looks good man. Now what about lateral support on the fender tubes? I think lateral be the term to use? Also tell me a little about the price and comfort of the uhaul tow rig setup?

I have a pair of taillights for sale as well.

Ill sell you mine. :D

I still have yet to get anything let alone even here back from anyone. Is this guy still around or not? I would guess so with donation in all but I would like to more info on someone to talk with if at all possible yet.

Where's the pic I want to what you was thinking..

Yeah ill have to get a pic of one next time I see them ride pass. Yeah where I live it its all about outdoor activities, its pretty cool really. Love the people around these parts, outgoing with a laid back demeanor.

See a few folks out here on bikes. Yes winter time and yet on bikes. They are snow bikes with fat tires. Kinda cool. Have to try one sometime. :D

X2642784747 on a selectable up front, be added in time. For now welded is all I have and will run it till I'm completely pissed at it. Lol And yeah Wade is a line picker alright. Not sure how he does it and keeps big red so pretty. :D

$3.79 unleaded and they go up everytime it snows. :(

Run it. ran the $#!& out of my 30 with 37" mtrs. Just have to be a conscience wheeler and I think you'll be alright. And if you broke 3 shafts with a welded diff backing out the driveway then you sir cannot drive. You make any hard turns welded in 4wd you are going to bind. I run welded front and rear and stay reasonable and ran 40s and not many issues on a 44 stockshaft and joints. .never any shafts broken from backing out my driveway even in 4wd. 50 pt turn but no broken shafts

Your slowly growing up. I'm so proud. ;-)

And that would be a heavy cap with a modified xj hatch on it.

Oh yeah cause you a d ick. :P

Maybe Pete just doesn't like you. :rolleyes:

Still seems to be a air in line issue, Did you bench bleed the master before install?

Yes both good. 4 link will bind before 3 link. But not nothing to shake a stick at unless your running for mad flex. 4 link is common for those more dd weekend getters from around the boards gives some a better sense of control out on the highway.

I ran the RK 3 link setup on my XJ and loved them. Bolt on but a few tack welds are suggested and you can't go wrong with them as an ungrade to an exsisting lift.

Yeah sorry to disappoint you. :{ Well one side done today, new wheel bearings and seals, new brakes and fresh joint installed on the passenger side. Had some slop in the bearings, but it was time for a overhaul anyways after the abuse of the 40s. Now got to find me another set of axles for drivers side as after a closer look the inner shaft did get twisted a bit that the ujoint won't sit right. But with that the plan is to upgrade to some yukon shafts and joints perhaps a tax refund gift to myself. ;).

Easy now Wade don't get all happy and ready to buy my rig now, talking about redoing the front cosmetic wise. Time to pretty it up a bit to match the bling bling.

Time for a change I think.......

Yes axles came with 3.07s gear with 5sp 4.0 combos.

So how you like them? how did you spot yours? For me I spoted them at the front of the back tires and the back of the front tires so I had a direct line of sight with the spot for when I'm looking out the window I can easily see what my tires are driving over or on.
