Went out to hidden falls this past weekend with the club. Axles held up great, oil was now minimally leaking at best, and the carnage this past weekend was thankfully minimal as well. Next up im...
It was the rear main for sure, have the parts to fix it just haven't gotten to it yet. From the park to clayton country end i spit atleast 4 quarts going down the highway haha. Haven't updated in...
Carnage update from clayton:
None other than a dent on the passenger rear door (more like a souvenir rather than carnage haha)
Tried out tuckers triumph? left off the airstrip going up and found...
i might go hit up a junkyard, we'll see what the next paycheck is lookin like. though i won't have it where i originally wanted it ill still beat the hell outta it anyways and have a whole year to...
Money is one issue, the other being that it set me behind in my tight build plan to make it to Clayton. I did not want to be up there without a locker, winch and bumper, and sliders at minimum. I'd...
Downer of an update.
Broke bad enough at hidden falls this past weekend to force me into leaving the jeep at home for Clayton this year. From the rear output shaft back is toast. Slip yoke, rear...
Yeah you're right on the sheet metal coming up in the middle, maybe ill extended that back towards the grille and make a seat/drink holder when i'm working on the dam thing (which is about every...
awesome, well i decided before the post and after i did the rough sketch that the corner wrap is just going to be a piece of 2x2 goin straight back from the corner and run along the bottom of the...
Oh! also forgot to add a member from the club will be cutting the pieces for the bumper with a cnc machine... for free! so with that i might be getting a locker for the front here soon..
im also gunna add a grille guard thats a mix between an arb and warn design, but any suggestions for the bumper?
Going with:
3/16 for the shell
1/4 for the unibody tie in for the bumper
1/4 for...
Well got another update for y'all. Still searching/saving up for the metal I'm gunna buy for the sliders, bumper and skids but tonight got all measurements and a mock up done for the front bumper....
picked up some extended brake lines today, front lines from a 1996 chevy 1500 and a rear line fore a 1996 dodge dakota from what ive read should bolt right in, each giving me about 6 more inches in...
well got a front tow hook welded in from an old tacoma, rear hitch was an absolute nightmare getting out the stock one and putting in the new one, but an all nighter later and i have a much stronger...
What's your experience with the Durango box? And I'll go do some digging on a better option for it because mine needs to be replaced..
no worries on the lift, just means that time and money can go into other things on the list. First meeting was a success, probably close to 75+ came out to flex on the ramp and see what we were...
welll looks like zebvance might be hookin me up with the majority of a 4.5in rc short arm lift, just need shocks and rear leafs. my question is what route should i go for the leafs and would 6in lift...
and also on track for a 5-6 year degree plan, paying my way and work too much to take more than 12 hours a semester.

Kinda put together a list for clayton this year and what needs to get done in repairs and upgrades
LCA bushings
UCA bushings
new leaf packs or bastard packs for rear, mine our wore out and are in...
zebvance is correct, i want the 8.25 because cheap, better than d35 and will bolt up. even better i might have a line on a free one which only helps the cause. dont plan on going bigger than the 33s...
Haven't been on in awhile but here's another update. Wheeled a lot since I Iraq started this thread, also done my homework on building it up. But for now 2" BB and 33s with trimming and bumpstops is...
So update on the Chief. Been on three runs this year so far and just got through with an awesome run this past weekend in Crawford. With a mostly stock set up, front sway link out, a little bit of...
Howdy Guys!
Been awhile since I posted, school and work keepin me pretty busy, but have had a lot of fun wheeling it the past semester and over the break. Only run I missed last year was Clayton...
