The War Wagon's Garage

[The_War_Wagon]

Well, since I'm finally doing something TO it (aside from communication gear installs and a CAI), I figure it's time to START a garage!

As an aside, she just turned quintuple 8's on Tuesday.

'Bout time I did something to it!

Going over to Gibbs here in Pittsburgh - the best 4WD shop in Pittsburgh - to get the work done.






Taking a look around the garage, I'd say a full-size Jeep might be safe in his hands...




Truckload o' tires!





I forgot to change the lighting on the camera from "indoor" to "outdoor," hence the bluish tinge in some of these pictures. I ALSO forgot to secure/cover that 5th tire, so I have black marks all over my roof. How DO we clean that semi-cloth-like covering in our headliners, btw?




Daystar lift, Spidertraxx wheel spacers, Skyjacker Nitro 8000 shocks for the rear - and (I'd almost forgot I had it!) - my Fastman throttlebody, in the white box! We're gonna slap that on too, while we're at it!


So it SHOULD be ready by next Tuesday - gotta take the wife's Grand Caravan to the Pirates games this weekend - the Ramcharger won't fit in a parking garage. Hopefully the Jeep will STILL fit in a parking garage when I'm done. A couple of the local hospitals' garages are ALREADY a tight fit for REAL-sized vehicles to start with!!!

Here's how I left her...

About time LOL Don't forget to include all your mods including your communication gear setup in the garage. If you have problems organizing it or need posts moved around just let me know.

Was thinking about that. I'll work on it here in the days to come.

Ooooh... Exciting! I'm happy for you.


I need to get around to making a garage thread as well.

Even if you Just put a link in here to a mod you have already done it will be helpful. We tend to remember who did what mod to their Jeep. So it makes it easier for people to find the mod so they can get information.

Will do. Anyone have any cleaning tips for that not-quite-cloth-not-quite-synthetic headliner of ours?

Have you corrected for your tire size? Also the tire size changes the gear ratio a bit so you should be running slightly lower rpm at speed with bigger tires.

I did, which I THOUGHT would offset any mileage gain... but there you have it!
