    Quick Vid from last wheeling trip

    Short vid from our run to the Glasshouse mountains. Was being very careful as the drivers CV was cobbled together from parts the night before and i didnt trust it!





    I really need to do a garage thread to put these in

    Nice video! Why are your rear tires pushed so far forward? Do you have rear adjustable control arms??

    I dont think its that far forward. It looks that way when fully extended because they swing forward due to radius arm lengths, but when he comes back down its pretty much centered in the wheel well. Though since he has that high clearance rear bumper it still makes the tire look like it sits forward a bit...

    Thanks Fellas! Yes, very slack.......

    There were 3 KJ libertys (cherokee's to us!) on that run, and 2 of them run ratios and detroits at both ends - They go ANYWHERE! They are light like an XJ and the detroits make up for any flex issues! I took a shining to them that day. We got every truck up that hill, its actually much easier than it looks and i made it look hard by being a skirt about the cv's. It took a bit of work but we even got a stock KK with A/T tyres up the right hand bank once we could get the driver to balance his power on the throttle and use the traction control.

    Small gallery from the day

    And if you have Facebook, im pretty sure this album is open (lots of pics! iNc a nice KK with steel bar and sliders etc)

    Yep, the wheel is still centred, just the seriously short factory arm locations make it look like its forward. Its good watching these again cause I can see just how much harder the Jeep has to work if the front swaybar is on. Its on to keep the front from bottoming out till i can sort the limit straps. As you can see the rears dont go anywhere near stuffing, but they do with the front swaybar off! And after 2 runs with the front swaybar on at this height the brnad new bushes were toasted, 1 was completely twisted out. And the fronts just hardly move at all. After getting the new CV's UCA's and rear drvieshaft in its full on limit strap setup mode so i can ditch the front swaybar again for good!
