Wanted to start a thread for my other half's rig. We finally started doing some modifications over normal maintenance.
Specs at time of purchase:
- 29" tires :sonicjay:
- 4.0, AW4, 35/30, 241?
- pretty much all original (found most of that out working on it the past two weeks)
Put in a new battery, tune up, oil change, stereo
Day she bought it (I found it in Holland, two owners)
Silver lake, stock, zero issues. Welded a tab to front bumper for flag. Pictures on Facebook, can't pull from cell. Will update later
Drove it as a dd in stock form until last weekend. Picked up an xj as a donor for the suspension lift. Ditched the rusty's shocks, kept coils and springs. Picked up jk Rubicon front shocks, ended up purchasing s10 rear because I ran out of time looking. Made bpe's for mounting. Relocated track bar to accommodate lift.
This weekend, made the front bumper I promised her a year ago.
And up to now. No death wobble experience after relocated track bar. There is a undulation around 50-55, but I think that may be attributed to older tires...
Going to replace the stabilizer in two weeks when she is back in town, and keep an eye out for some 30-32" tires and maybe some rims to push them out a little bit.
Still her dd for now, but looking better.
She said she wants to make a name, ask I said she had to be mrslousypirate
