Thought i would finally start build thread on my 06 Tj Golden Eagle. Started out as Surburban sub-extreme package which done the Job for 2 yrs until I got the bug and started doing some hacking. First major mod was the Tummy tuck which still to this day is doing the job then the guard lift. The Jeep is now been turned into designated WTC truck with wheelbase being stretched out to 101" with 6" in the back and 3" in the front. Fuel cell is being made to fit in back along with 2 blue top optima's to power winch with a Cat 100A 24v alternator being jammed under bonnet. A Russtuff twin motor lowmount winch is currently being built with airfree spool and an unreal 160m/min speed. Here's a few pics before i started anyway.
Breezy? Suspension? and what he^^^ said.
These low mounts are gaining in popularity. Cant wait to see how they rate after a years of comp.
You got a contact for the winch builder?
Sticking with everything i got for suspension as i don't want to spend too much on it, 3 1/2" Rubicon coils just noching them into chassis in rear and moving coil buckets on front, Resleeving the Rubicon arms with moly tube, using the original control arm brackets just gusseting them, sticking with D30 as I have only ever broken one axle after 4yrs of thrashing but I am sleeving the tubes and chucking in some moly axles with 300m joints hopefully which should hold up to the 35" Creepy Crawlers. As for the winch contact Russel at ARB Rochampton he competed in Cliffhanger this year and finished second in his SWB Patrol using this winch. Will chuck some more pics up tomoz as i should nearly have the rear completed...
Few pics of what i've done so far rear diff is back 6" and front foward 4" got the cage ripped out and steel has all turned up so should be starting on it real soon..
