Next Pine Barrens Run?

Wait wait wait. You not only have a Chevy, but you have a JEEP too? Say it ain't so, Matt.

yea but its an XJ so it's OK... not like its a wrangler or something (only had that for a few months :scratch

I have a 2" lift sittin in the garage waiting to go on it. Then i'd like to do some bushwacker cut-outs and some 32x11.5s

Might be time to invest in a DJOR pressure washer

I was using my air compressor; atleast now I don't smell burning grass anymore when I stop.

OK We REALLY need to find his old Explorer. That Heep bug is biting so hard he knows all those x,y,z codes. :roll:

Matt, seriously do you have an old registration or something with the VIN# on it?

EDIT: Get that pic outta here!!

 

[sk1er17]

Don't be hatin.

I couldnt find any old registration cards or anything from my explorer

My friend has a 97 XJ. I've been trying to get him to lift it for the longest time.

 

[sk1er17]

they're pretty easy to lift, thanks to the SFA and stock SOA... they're just tempermental with driveline vibes; that's why i'm only going 2" for now. Then when im ready to turn it into a trail rig i'll add on a 3.5" kit (for 5.5") along with some drivetrain work and steering components and ill be good to go

hey hey hey now...... i also own a chevy.... and a jeep....

 

[spabula]

BTW.... pics look awesome wish I could've made it.

 

[Paraphoe]

Yea but you balance it out with an Ex. Matt can no longer claim that. Although I still do have a picture of his truck headlights deep in a water crossing on my dorm wall. Haha.

 

[spabula]

Jason, unfortunately the hub you are getting isn't as shinny as your avatar!!

 

[Paraphoe]

Haha, does it work? That's alllll I need!


BTW, when can I meet you to snag it? Our PM convo died.

I think that since i built a basa$$ Ex and started a fiberglass fenders + 35" tire revolution that I still have the 'balance' you're talking about.

Just wait till i find my good old Ex, we'll see who can keep up (i got to mess around with it a little after putting in the manual tcase and rear locker... the thing was a beast. too bad Jasper doesn't know how to make engines )

 

[MustangAndy]

I'M PUTTING A REQUEST IN. I WOULD LIKE EVERYONE THAT TOOK PICTURES SUNDAY TO PUT THEM ALL IN A ZIP FILE (IF POSSIBLE) AND EMAIL THEM TO ME: ADMIN@DIRTYJERSEYOFFROAD.COM

THIS STUPID FIREWALL IS REALLY STARTING TO BUG ME.

THANK YOU,

Thursday is a brutal day for me. I'm free all of Friday, though.

I'm thinking about making that my next step. The Perry's just worry me a bit, because they don't look like they fit that well.

 

[sk1er17]

They're just fiberglass... all they need is a little luvin and finesse and they fit fine

 

[Paraphoe]

Yea but then I gotta paint 'em to match, that's a big PITA. Not a fan of the black fender look, sorry.


Oh and BTW, this is going to be interesting - my eBay parts still haven't shipped. If they don't ship today, I don't think theres any way they get to me by Sunday. :\

 

[sk1er17]

get them with white gell coat then instead of black I was going to paint mine then realized that $$$ could be spent on a locker and OBA (i was a fan of function over looks)

as far as the parts... can you contact the seller and ask for them to be expedited? even if it costs $20 more in shipping it'll be worth it. Or we can hold off till the 23rd if we have to
