The little Jeep did great at Clayton 2014. I didn't break anything and the locker held up.
Two things i did notice.
1) the oil pressure gauge usually reads 0. I haven't researched it yet, but BDR says its pretty standard for the 4.0. Annoying "check gauges"
light comes on and chimes.
2) Even after installing the 136 amp alternator and larger gauge wire, whenever I hit the winch cable(with a load on it or not) it still kills the radio. Not sure why.
I did have a flat when I got home, but I think it is from ripping up the valve stem at Frielings. I initially had the pressure at 12, but after wheeling it Thursday night, I lowered to 7. BIG difference, walked up everything I couldnt the night before.
I need lower gearing for sure. Always feel like I am smoking the brakes.
Need more tire/clearance.
Leaning more towards a 44 up front, chromos all around and 37s and it would do everything I want it to.
Check your cab ground, or add one. That would be my first spot to check the radio.
if you get a rubi or other bolt in 44 get the gusset and tube kit to strengthen it. with larger tires they tend to bend the tubes and inner c's. kit is cheap and an easy weld in.
Did great at K2 last weekend. I spliced the winch rope back together and swapped in a new passenger shaft. Then I left it in the backyard while I worked on something else and the sprinklers soaked it, which fried the radio.
Need to start looking at D44 front options. Found a 80 FS Cherokee at the junkyard with a 6 lug 44, but I think it was low pinion. I think Sparling has a Ford 44 that might work.
Do scout 44s work?
He needs driver drop
80+ fsj is lp and 6 lug but it could be made into 5x5.5 or even 8 lug
if you want hp you will have to go ford
early bronco is lp
What is stock TJ 30 width? 60"? Stock full width 70s ford 44? 65"? sound right???
I also have two fullsize bronco 44s and only one truck. Lemme know.
