I finally swapped out my junk Rock Krawler 4.5"Rear spring/2"block set up and went w/ Rustys 6.5" leafs. I just had to make a trip out for a quick shake down. Everything went well but when I got home I remembered a front drive line repair that I didn't finish, I had broke a bolt at the t-case yoke, so I removed one more so I could size up a new one. I had forgot that I was wheeling on 2 bolts diagonally positioned on my front driveshaft, I was lucky especially on a solo run. Sorry for all the posing, I didn't want to hit Crushers on a solo run.

Pat,
That is probably the coolest video's I have ever watched with an XJ!!
It doesn't get much better than that:
1. Great Truck
2. Great Driving
3. Great Flex (back and front)
4. Great video by the wife (I assume)?
5. Great music put to it
VERY VERY VERY nice.

Thanks Michael and yes the cinematographer is my WIFE, standing in the rain, I wasn't going for the poser award but she insisted on some new pics/vids. It has been a few months since the Jeep has seen some real action, donuts in the parking lot after a snow storm don't count.
Matt the rears are Rustys 6.5" with 6 leafs. I understand that the 6th leaf is removable if your not going to go crazy with spare parts and tools (extra weight) and you still can Maintain the warranty. I'll wait and see what these will do before I praise them.
Happy Poser Day!:callme:

MichaelJust as I pushed "submit" I realized I'd read something about a different spring. I was just mesmerized by all the pretty pictures.
:dunce:
I'll have to double up on my extreme posing at the upcoming Evans Creek trip. You should come, Michael. ;)

Just for good measure:

I don't often get an oportunity to give you a hard time about not reading;)
I would love to come to Evan's, let me know when, but the likelyhood is I won't be able to make it. I can't afford to have others work on my Jeep for me;) So, trying to make time between all of my other family commitments to work on the Jeep is not easy.
When you can flex on that stump and keep both rear tires on the ground then you will be in the ball park.
We need to borrow a ramp one of these days, just for fun. I need to see how my "double AAL" hangs with the big boy's:laugh3:
Pat, You and your wife do a very nice job of putting together a video!!

Pat, your Jeep is definatly trail rated now!!
Did you guys know that Pat loves the jeep trail rated emblem? Everyone should get Pat one so he can put it on his jeep.
The music was a nice touch. But since your rig is wicked sick. You should have used disturbed. Down with the sickness...:anon:

Maybe Mr President knows where to borrow a portable one for NW Fest. What do you guys think? I know RTI is SO five years ago, but what is wrong with a little retro.
BTW great video. Matt should be envious of your wife's cinematic skills. Matt less pics, more video
Brian where is the TSF video? ;)

Matt,
I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard!!
I think your "close to double" is probably a little scuewed;) I am going to make the assumption that you did reasonably well on your SAT's (at least above average). And I don't think you could do that with such a spread with the two catagories.

I will be building a ramp shortly... hopefully something that folds and is portable.
