its often hard for people to compare lifts between their jeeps
here is how you can compare against mine http://www.teknoscape.com.au/forums/...5&d=1190543521 :D |
got all the suspension done and panhard sorted last weekend. shes now rolling again :D
just put in an order with the wooders for some RE superflex UCA's and also RE LCA drop brackets with bracing next mod (after i get the rear bushies on) is to make a storage unit for the rear area out of 12mm & 17mm ply that will store a fridge and esky on roll out runners and also house a duel battery, compressor, water pump and other camping bits and pieces |
after busting one of my wheel caps i got 1 new one today and 3 new stickers so they all match as they changed the logo since i last got them....

Tried to fit new shocks but failed!!!
|
My new (secondhand) shocks are much bigger than old OE. Secondly they are harder to install than I thought. In fact I gave up and put OE back on.
The problem is that the skyjacker shocks are so hard to compress I can attach the top but can't push them up to put the bolt through the eye (on rear shocks). Easy I though. I can push the shocks in a couple of inches while under the car so if I jack up the car and let the weight of the wheel pull the axle down a couple of inches I might push harder and make it happen. Well lesson learnt. With a 3.5 inch lift the old OE bottle jack does not really even touch the chassis at full extension netalone pull the tyre of the ground. So I think I need some one with a hoist or buy myself a high lift (damn!!) and jack up via the tow bar or something. I am working this weekend so it may have to wait until next week Oh I think the cat likes the jeep!! Very interested in the shocks or was that the fluffy stuff coming out of the box they came in? |
decided to install my new amp in the cargo area and then found a water leak so gutted the entire inside from the front seats aft to seal everything up. then decided to build a storage unit while i had it apart...then decided if i was doing to do that id better install the rollcage to fit around the box...all this just for an amp! :wall: at least i got to take the angle grinder to something :cool:

Yesterday, fitted RE Adj. LCAs.
Was some fun. Interested in your drawer ideas Rodge. I keep thinking back to the idea of turning the XJ into a 3/3.5 seater. |
Got it dirty :D
|
ill be making my rear storage area soon based on my mates design in his challenger. need to check sizing but it will have a slide out drawer that will hold fridge and esky with space either side for other shit
