Tinyten: Jeep Journal

[tinyten]

Picked this up today with 4.88 gears and ten factory chromoly shafts for $300, now I just need to figure out if I want to keep the 4.88s and go 35s or install my 5.13s and go 37s

Thanks! It'll be a while before it goes in, I have alot of saving up to do but I have big plans for the jeep!

Also an update on the no rear sway bar, on road it really isn't noticeable if you don't drive like it's a race car Lol, I went with a disconnected front during the trip at Rausch and I liked the way it felt, didn't seem to want to roll or anything of the sort in all the off camber stuff, and it flexed put nicely with the tiny tires

Almost time to start wheeling with something other than stock tires!

Why did I not see this before? Nice 2-door!

Thanks it's coming along! There doesn't seem to be many of us with 2 doors

Got my wheels in today also! Is it frowned upon to keep tires and wheels in your dorm room? Ah who cares! Eta a week and a half before I get to mount my 35s.. It seems like forever. I will be mounting them myself for the first time also.

Smacked a deer this morning, guess I'm in the market for a new winch..

That blows! Any other damage beside your winch?

I don't believe so, steering wheel was at like 11 o clock to keep it straight so something shifted. But I drove it another 70 miles after I hit the deer so nothing major.

Surprised it broke the motor off the winch back in there like that, I’m glad we can’t smell that first pic, been there smelled that before

I was too, that's the only thing that annoyed me. Lol. But yeah it didn't smell great, best part is I was heading to the airport to go on a whitetail hunt!

 

[tinyten]

And thanks to everyone else, I'm just glad the jeep is good for the most part!

 

[tinyten]

Anyone know if smittybuilt has a warranty for smashing a deer off your winch? Lol
