JeepcoMJ Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Did you consider putting bars between the tops above windshield to keep trees out of the roof? You took a real conservative approach. Looks and will function great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You took a real conservative approach. Looks and will function great I'm not sure i follow your first statement. and is conservative good or bad? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeepcoMJ Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Horizontal bar between each of the uppermost front to tear bars at the point of arch. Basically another bar above the upper windshield bar. Conservative is good. It hits the spot wothout going overboard. Like a rubber, it takes care of 99% of the problems you could encounter not having one lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89eliminator Posted June 17, 2014 Author Share Posted June 17, 2014 i hadnt considered that. something to look into though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeepcoMJ Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Only reason I think of that is to keep brush out of it. Wouldnt matter in a rollover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW86 Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Or throw a light bar up there.. If your mainly going to orv parks, I don't see you running through thick brush that often to matter... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89eliminator Posted June 18, 2014 Author Share Posted June 18, 2014 there is some thick brush that i have run into but i have wheeled this long without something like that so i guess i don't really need it. two light bars is an idea i had (each side of the center roof tube) but they are just so much money that its not worth it to me.

SW86 Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Yeah I thought one on each side after I glanced at the pics again. 10 or 12". They are expensive though but after seeing them in action soo many times on night rides, it's like you just have to get one.. I'm about to bite the bullet and get a 12".

jbain Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Holy crap dude... that MJ of yours is awesome.... how have I been hanging around here for over a year and not seen this post. Sweet pic of you with your head out the passengers door.... I've had mine on 2 wheels more times than I can count but so far I've landed back on all fours.... I hope to have the presense of mind to have someone take a pic of me when mine finally finds its way on its side or top..... I hope to make Harlan with you guys next year..... love the photo's.

89eliminator Posted July 30, 2014 Author Share Posted July 30, 2014 thanks. yeah that flop was on Mason Jar. cage held up great. would have taken out the windshield without it. its definitely a good time when NAXJA is there. lots of well built rigs and some good carnage (like a supercharged LS powered JK on 40s breaking a 14 bolt shaft and detroit locker on your turn) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbain Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 When we were there in April there was a group of buggies in there attempting Your Turn..... They just couldn't make it over that log with the rock on the left side.... There was a 100k buggy that was on his side twice and must have beat on it for over a half hour...... good times. I really like Mason Jar....and if I'm not mistaken that looks like the ledge at top of the first climb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89eliminator Posted July 30, 2014 Author Share Posted July 30, 2014 it was actually just before the last hard climb with the rock face on the right side. the JK actually made it over the log but got about 1 foot in the air and stayed in the throttle wide open so the rear end broke when it landed.

89eliminator Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share Posted September 29, 2014 went wheeling with my club to Iron Range OHV park in Gilbert MN this past weekend. great time as usual. had quite a few damaged rigs, even sending two of them home early. the MJ did fairly well until saturday afternoon. tried rock bouncing a steep hill 4 or 5 times. the last try ending with this. i also ripped the traction bar off the axle tube at the same time... and here are the only other pics i took. will update when someone posts their pics.
