pingpong Posted April 24, 2006 Posted April 24, 2006 When an obstacle has caused mutiple pieces of damage to your vehicle, especially a tree, it is to be rammed at full throttle to teach it a lesson :twisted: or just take a different line :wink:
88swampedmj Posted April 24, 2006 Author Posted April 24, 2006 haha yea after it dented my bed a little..i went wide..
pingpong Posted April 24, 2006 Posted April 24, 2006 haha yea after it dented my bed a little..i went wide.. Should have did that the first time :wink:
DirtyComanche Posted April 26, 2006 Posted April 26, 2006 What backspacing do those rims have? Any spacers? (Again I'm going 'why the f' didn't I just go fullwidth?')
pingpong Posted April 26, 2006 Posted April 26, 2006 (Again I'm going 'why the f' didn't I just go fullwidth?') Because you were tryng to build on a budget :nuts: :rotf: You didnt listen to what ppl were telling you :thwak: and you are from :Canadaflag: and we all know how you all like to do things differently up there :smart:

But hey, I think I might be able to trade my cutlass supreme for a D60.
88swampedmj Posted May 1, 2006 Author Posted May 1, 2006 oh they are 15x10 rock crawlers..no spacers...and the axles are a xj 30 and 35...
DirtyComanche Posted May 1, 2006 Posted May 1, 2006 That makes sense... I think I might get some half inch spacers and longer studs for my front. 4.5" BS with a 8" rim and 12.5 wide tire just doesn't work. Well, it works in a straight line. Wait, how about I say "@#$% rusty's" because all it rubs is the control arms, which could have just as easily been bent. Oh hell how I hate that kit. Of course, I'm not a fan of those spacers.

How come no one listens to me :deal: :dunno: I told everyone that crap many moons ago, when they asked why did you do it that way, or why did you chose those parts over this. :smart: Here is a clue :roll: ... When you go to buy a part, and you are not sure about weather or not it fits, just ask them if they have installed it on a MJ yet :brows: This is why I didn't buy the TNT kit, Rusty's kit, RE kit. I went low buck :D and it just so happens to work :banana:
DirtyComanche Posted May 1, 2006 Posted May 1, 2006 The only bent arm radius setup out there is the TNT one, I think. And it ain't gonna fit. Realistically I've jsut got too much BS because I bought the AR-767s instead of finding something else. Anyways, I'll admit that the rusty's crap was a mistake. However, I think I can farther modify it to suit my needs. 4 bends and a new X-memeber (which I was going to do anyways, as the rusty's one is retarded) and it would be golden. Although, that might get tricky with where the UCA mounts are on the LCAs. Hmm. Okay, I should just get fullwidths.
