Darren Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 I ran into this guy on my way to go wheeling at a gas station. What are the odds. He's had the Jeep for 10 years. Cleanest Jeep I've seen bar none. He's done everything imagineable to the motor and tranny. I told him to come over to the site and post his jeep here, I hope he does. Now for the motor. TJ buckets It sounded absoloutly amazing. with a 4wd MJ he ran a 16 flat with 31" a/t's. spring over with V8 zj lift springs up front. 35 rear though :roll: Every part on this thing was shiny and looked brand new.

WahooSteeler Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Wicked cool! But, from everything I've learned here, I can't believe he hasn't blown out that Turdy-Five with that kind of power? And even more unbelievable is that he didn't replace it considering what he's got in front of it? :nuts: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

69CamaroSS Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Noice! it would take a miracle for me to be able to do all that to my jeep by myself. That sucker is purty! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoloCamo Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Wicked cool! But, from everything I've learned here, I can't believe he hasn't blown out that Turdy-Five with that kind of power? And even more unbelievable is that he didn't replace it considering what he's got in front of it? :nuts: Exactly what I was wondering...Hell, with all the horror stories I've heard I'm afraid to go from a dig in a practically stock MJ ;) It sounded absoloutly amazing. with a 4wd MJ he ran a 16 flat with 31" a/t's. spring over with V8 zj lift springs up front. 35 rear though :roll: Every part on this thing was shiny and looked brand new. A z28 350 (Lt1 I'm assuming) stroked to 383 in that thing should run a lot faster than a 16 flat, even with the lift and 31's...Something is telling me it isn't running up to par, or he is afraid of ripping apart that D35.

MrSimon Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Sure that truck is nice, but its even cooler that three MJs showed up randomly in one parking lot. How often does that happen???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WahooSteeler Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Sure that truck is nice, but its even cooler that three MJs showed up randomly in one parking lot. How often does that happen???? I meant to ask if he knew the person with the 3rd MJ or if that WAS completely random. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
500 MJ Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 How does he not blow that 35 rear up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperWade2 Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Sure that truck is nice, but its even cooler that three MJs showed up randomly in one parking lot. How often does that happen???? Other than pics on here, I've never seen more than one at a time at any one place (mine)...I've passed a couple on the street, and one at a PnP one time, but NEVER EVER 3...

Darren Posted October 2, 2008 Author Share Posted October 2, 2008 to answer a few questions. Track time - He has 3.55 gears and will be going to 4.56 soon. the 35 rear - I honestly don't know how he hasn't blown it up yet, but its not his wheeler, he has a 5.9 zj with 5.5" and long-arms, so this is just his pavement pounder. 3 MJ's in one spot - Red MJ is mine, Black one is my buddies who was headed off to the trails with me. we pulled into the gas station when we saw it.
