camjeep3 Posted March 28, 2008 Author Posted March 28, 2008 thanks, i want to keep it cleen looking and iam going to get rid of that little rust
watchamakalit Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 what are you gonna do with the lift? What does it consist of? I see spacers in front but what is in the rear?
camjeep3 Posted April 7, 2008 Author Posted April 7, 2008 its spacers in the front and an add-a-leaf in the back. Â the bumper came on the truck, its not even connected to the frame. google cherokee or comanche push bar, that should get you what you want
camjeep3 Posted November 30, 2008 Author Posted November 30, 2008 updates... she is in the process of getting a reman engine i should have pics this week and the lift should be going on as well i will keep you guys posted
CrankShaftKid Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 Can you go into detail about the reman engine? Source?
camjeep3 Posted December 22, 2008 Author Posted December 22, 2008 so i picked the truck up from my grandfathers neighbor today and wow, it runs so much better :D :D :D it dosent idle to well so i will be putting new injectors in hopefully that should help. what is the site that has the good price? oh and no pics yet its dark, plus nothing special just not soaked in oil!!!! :banana: Â \
camjeep3 Posted December 31, 2008 Author Posted December 31, 2008 so i finished my lift up last night :D i got there around 8:30 three of my friends showed up about an hour to later and we worked alllll day. me and one friend worked on the front the other two on the back. its a 4.5 superflex kit from RE and i love it. we used the xj aal and it got the back about level. we had no major problems just used lots of PB hammering and pry bars. the pics are bad i know we just rolled it out to test the breaks. the new suspension is a night and day difference between the old rigged "lifted" crap i was dealing with. cam is dead and i forgot the charger :wall: so good pics are coming
mvusse Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 Make sure you get an alignment done, or at least grab a tape measure and get toe in as close to zero as you can get it. That much lift will give you a lot of toe in (2" in my case) and cause *SEVERE* death wobble at speeds as low as 35 or 40 mph. Severe enough to fubar the bearings in my alternator.
BLHTAZ Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 Very nice!! :D Â Definitely need an alignment. You will be surprised at how fast you will destroy tires with only minor alignment issues. I completely destroyed a pair of 35" Xterrains in two months because the caster was off by 2 degrees on our YJ...and it only gets about 600 - 700 miles a month if that.
camjeep3 Posted January 2, 2009 Author Posted January 2, 2009 ok i will get on that pronto.... what do you guys think whe would look like with 32 xs for a while :brows: i have a trade working out. oh and she needs a name :dunno:
BLHTAZ Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 I think 32's would be a perfect fit... :thumbsup:
jeepaholic Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 32's would be :thumbsup: ..Name..not exactly politically correct but how bout whitey or cracker..sorry i am from GA..get called that all the time..lol
camjeep3 Posted April 18, 2009 Author Posted April 18, 2009 some pics i found from her glory days putting dad to work it was nasty got it cleaned those where all pre lift and engine..... havent had it out since..... yet :D
Codycobra84 Posted April 19, 2009 Posted April 19, 2009 Lookin good, yeah I did a close type of fix for my oil issue, but I've got a antifreeze bottle on the other side...but hey there's no more oil all over the place. Â BTW: you still got that old lift setup layin around? hehehe, I'm lookin for something cheap just to get it alittle higher, I tried some little coil spacers...yeah that worked for like a day, oh well. Anyways I was just curious b/c I'm not that far from S.C. figured maybe make a road trip and buy ya lunch :brows: Â -Cody
camjeep3 Posted April 19, 2009 Author Posted April 19, 2009 yeah I'm right of 77 spacers i had are sold. sorry. but whenever you need help id be up to wrenching on a fellow CC members rig :thumbsup: oh yeah my oil leaks are gone..... so is that old engine :brows:
camjeep3 Posted May 25, 2009 Author Posted May 25, 2009 would have pics up can't findcord. but today i mounted and wired my cb, with a temp antenna untill i figure out what i want to run. i also put in a new Head unit. ran all new wires for it. old harness sucked. also ran wires to back corners of the cab where i will have 2 6.5in sony speakers. found the cord..... any ideas of how to mount in the corners? antenna for now
Pete M Posted May 25, 2009 Posted May 25, 2009 I bought little truck boxes for 6x9 speakers, maybe someone makes a similar box for 6.5s. :dunno:
camjeep3 Posted May 25, 2009 Author Posted May 25, 2009 i knew they had them for 6x9s i will have to check for my 6.5s
