My way to fast build of Oscar

[thardy]

I explained this in an early post but the 4wp accidenly ordered both not just the front as I had asked and are going to cover the cost to cut down the ds

Yeah I remember that you had paid for them but they were waiting to ship the rear until you could measure. Sucks they didn't follow through, but that's 4WP for ya.

Heres some more pics. I got the jeep on all fours thanks to Grubbicon and GR8WHITE. Im getting the driveshaft cut down tmrw.[

If I didn't have to work, I would have been there. :grayno:

They generally have been pretty good with me and it was really cool of them to cover the cost to cut down the DS. I told them I was in a hurry for jeepfest and didnt have time to ship it back and have another one made.

No problem man you helped quite a bit already.

Turns out 2 of the wheel studs on my axle were stripped so I ordered 3 new ones from dynatrac yesterday. Also had to order rear lower and front upper arms to get the angles right.

Jeep has been driven today and all is good. Now 4wp is just doing alignment and were done.

Its driving and the 4.88s feel amazin!

 

[trailless]

Nice! Let me know how you like it on the highway. I'm trying to decide on 4.88 or 5.13.

I wouldnt go 5.13. 4.88 feels perfect on the highway with 37s i was going 75 at 2500k up a hill.

I think it depends on what you're using it for. The 4.88s would probably be best if you're rig sees mostly on-road/highway driving. The 5.13s would shine off-road.

Thats sounds right. I cant tell you how it does offroad yet but I DD mine so it sees alot of hwy and city miles.

Heres me going up a hill on the hwy. Speedo is 5mph off and I fixed the abs this morning.
