89eliminator Posted May 3, 2007 Author Posted May 3, 2007 here is a pic of my new winter tires i picked up for $100, they are bfg all terrains 31x10.5x15 mounted on my stock rims. And a pic of the winch on the new plate i got. warn m8000
89eliminator Posted May 3, 2007 Author Posted May 3, 2007 yep, for the winch i will be cutting my lower bar off the grill guard, and notch a hole in the bumper, and weld the plate to the guard. tie it all to the frame, and it should be done.
JeepcoMJ Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 don't weld it to the frame tho... oh hey, would it be possible for ya to stop by so i can get some measurements off your headlight guards on that brushguard? or however you want to do it...I'll be home all weekend here so... i basically need the measurements cause i got a guard like yours that just doesn't have the loops for the headlights. and i like yours...so that's what i'll base it offa.
JeepcoMJ Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 his dad's willys has subaru brat seats in the back of it...kinda ingenious if you ask me :D
89eliminator Posted May 3, 2007 Author Posted May 3, 2007 yeah those subura seats are really cool to sit in going down the freeway, kind of makes you nauseous though

pingpong Posted May 4, 2007 Posted May 4, 2007 I made my own on POng using a APC air filter, 6" piece of exhaust tubing, 2 steel 1/4 air chucks and a piece of scrap angle
89eliminator Posted May 8, 2007 Author Posted May 8, 2007 well, i finally got my winch bumper done. first i had to cut the lower bar off of my brush guard. second i had to notch the stock bumper. third i had to make some brackets to tie it into the bumper brackets. weld the winch plate it, and it was done. you might be wondering why the last one is all muddy, well i had a good time mudding at my friends house
JohnQ Posted May 8, 2007 Posted May 8, 2007 Looks good. What did you use for a winch plate? I'm thinking of modifying my bumper for my warn 9.5ti.
89eliminator Posted May 8, 2007 Author Posted May 8, 2007 it is just a universal mount. it was on a wrangler. i got it off ebay for 25 bucks. it also came with a new roller fairlead.
Rob S Posted May 15, 2007 Posted May 15, 2007 Thats one good lookin truck. I like the winch set up, came out great. :cheers:

89eliminator Posted November 7, 2007 Author Posted November 7, 2007 Newest Update: Started my SOA tonight, got the springs on top the axle, just resting on it though. I used to have Rustys 4.5in SUA, and gained about another 1 inch from the SOA. Plans for winter will be rock rails, change valve guide seals, and other misc stuff. here's some pics of the SOA Here are some pics of the damage at the Badlands during Greatlakes XJ's Fall Crawl. I thrashed both of the rockers :oops:
LEAD_NOT_FOLLOW Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 I claim no responsibility to the dented rockers.... he wasn't following me! How's the stance look now Wade? I always thought you butt end sagged a bit.
89eliminator Posted November 7, 2007 Author Posted November 7, 2007 Its got about a 1in to 2in rake to it. it looks good in the garage, have to get a better view from outside when its done. before, it was perfectly level. I wanted it to have a rake to it.
