Time for you to stretch your wheel base.

 

Sup JB! I think the Ford is long enough, so I hope youre talking about the Zuk

Planning on doing it some, not going crazy on it. Its about 5 3/4" now. I plan on A few more inches. I just don't know if I plan on keeping the same tire size or not. A few things are still up in the air right now. I have a "rough plan" as of now.


Hows the TJ build coming, you still working on that? The 1 ton one? Still got the yellow one?

 

I traded the black TJ I had for a cherokee. Basics of that deal was
I had installed/welded in a magnum 360 in a 2003 TJ. Needed to finish wiring and getting it to run. Needed to weld in suspension, etc. Long process. Buddy of mine wanted it, so I tack welded in stock suspension and stock axles with some rollers and traded him for a Cherokee.



this is what I got in a trade



I bought another Cherokee Shell and did this to the green one



and turned the black shell I had into this







Almost finished with the black Cherokee. Exhaust work and then a few bugs to fix.

Still have the Yellow TJ (probably never get rid of it)

I bought the wife this Jeep



So thats where I'm at currently. Sold some things on the red Jeep. It's going to get one tons instead. I bought another set of one ton axles, making my collection total of two one ton axle sets.

I'll do the wife's Jeep first and then mine at a later time since mine is function just fine at the moment.

I have two many damn wheels/tire sets as well that I'm not sure I want to run.

My Yellow one currently has (5) 35x15.50/15 SX's on 15x10 aluminum wheels with over 85% tread left. (Probably sell these to go something a little bit narrower)

The black XJ has my old (4) 35x12.50/15 MTR Kevlar on 15x8 black wheels that are getting low on tread. (Probably sell these)

Then I have a set of 37x12.50/15 MTR on black wheels with 65-75% tread (I don't currently have anything that can handle these or fit them. Came on the green XJ


Wanna buy some tires haha

 

Well i'm glad to see ya busy! LOL! Man, I can't help ya on the tires. Maybe the 37s... I'm looking to sell the 35" Creepy Crawlers I just bought on the beadlocks. The axles I bought won't accept the bolt pattern of my wheels, that and i'm thinking about going larger.

Pretty good work on that XJ! What was his (your friends) plan after cutting it up like that?

btw, I need to borrow your garage/ shop! LOL

 

XJ was all beat up, cut the back off and he was going to tube it but never got around to it. Jeep was to far gone to save other then cut it up, tube it and make it a buggy.

Send me a message on the 37's I'm looking to get them out of my way (can't use them on anything I have) or possible trade for other tires depending on size (that I can use)

 

Picked up this old POS in a trade last week. Furthest offroad I've ever been is some shallow mud in my old Subaru, sufficed to say I have no idea what I'm doing...

 

^^^ Can be fun, looks pretty nice! Watch for head gasket problems/ overheating.

 

it's been a hot minute since i've posted on this site for sure....


well a lot of you know me, I moved out to Colorado, there is a HUGE Xterra scene here... I must confess, I caught the bug.....

picked up an 06 bone stock...original owner.....

day 1:



now:

 

Looks better now than it did stock for sure. I know nothing about them, but I like the larger tires on stock wheels for sure.

 

How much money do you have tied up in LED lights? Damn.
