i know they did the work, and kudos, but they don't support this forum. As such we should not support them.....

Who gives a Sh!t. I really think people have better things to do.

Talk about a self centered cave dwelling throwback.... ******** me......

It is a specialist jeep store/workshop, here we have a dedicated specialist jeep forum, i did give the guy kudos, i said it looked like a good build, i 'suggested' that he have a word to them and 'suggest' they support the forum. My beef was and is that it is super heavily promoted in this thread, potentially bringing $$$ to them, with no return to the forum, it has gota be the last jeep specialist in the country to have not signed on the sponsor the forum. Everyone wants something for nothing nowadays, what is the world coming to?

Not that i have not been here 100 times before, but the forum does not run for free, it has rather extensive resource requirements, these ARE NOT FREE. Sure you can login and sure it costs nothing 'to you', but that is not the case for the owners of the forum....

I completely agree, i just believe that you (and in reflecting, probably myself) could have posted your opinion in a better light. Something along the lines of what you just wrote there, would have been great.

I am just self impressed with the JK comparing it to how it performed stock and the capabilty it has now. 4wdUSA have no knowlege of my thread or any self input/plug into my postings. When I said in my post about the Perth show, it was not to premote 4WDUSA but that my vehicle would be on display there. azasjeep, you pose a good view to the argument and I will put it to 4wdUSA about AJOR sponsorship. My intensions are clean and all I wanted to do was post my Jeep under "Jeep Build Up" and show Oz what people are doing with the stock Jk's. Obviously I have put a few people noses out of joint as with the title to my thread, so I will answer one last post and then resign myself from this thread.

He was just showing us his pride and joy, which happened to be done by someone other than i site sponsor and he gets roastered for it.

Not cool guys. But i also agree with you ARB87U about the sponsoring and the cycle that is. Lets not have a go at this guy. Innocent until proven.

The owner is vice president of the jeep club of WA, so he has vested intrests elsewhere....He is a very knowledgble guy but alot of ppl dont get along with him coz he is a bit rude. His prices arent the best either...jmho....His knowledge of Jeeps is very very good though....Bottom line is that if you have the $$$ he will build you a good jeep..

nice rig.....good to see some built jks starting to show up.

madog, nice rig mate. Can you tell me how u have found those rancho RS9000XL shocks? Im looking to use them in my superlift kit and get the longarm shock models (the ones im sure u are running in there)

Are the shocks on the model u got actually the oversized ones? They only specify they are oversize on particular part numbers in the XL series and not all of them are larger diameters, so not sure about the ones you have. Apparently the oversized ones are just huuuuge compared to a normal shock. How do you find the ride in them, and differences in adjustment settings? Do you have the wireless controller for them or in cabin? Im in the process of getting all the info I can and seeing ur local with these, who better to ask

Also i noticed ur steering shock is relocated to the other side likethe yanks. Did that require welding a new mount ir does the relocation bracket from the US work fine on the other side of the diff?

Cheers mate
