    HD Offroad Front Frame Stiffner info/pics?

    x5 yeah i installed the fronts and mids on mine and they turned out really good. there's a TON of holes to be welded, but after looking at a couple other company's offerings, this really seems like a much more superior design. ruffstuff specialties makes basically the same thing, just WAY...

    anybody run 35's on stock jeep rims?

    i'm running the factory alcoa TJ rims with 35x12.50R15 radial SSRs and 1.25" spacers, no rubbage, unless you count the inner fenderwell... LOL

    project "Frank" a.k.a. shop leftovers

    little update... installed the '95 oldsmobile aurora reverse lights: i picked up some 35" SSRs and put them on the wheels... i'm going to need to run some spacers with that much backspacing: cut flares and raise them about 2" and stretched 'em. i forgot to take a pic of the flares, but...

    Need a lil help from people running Rough Country LA kits

    meh, i'm not messing with any more pics. my cherokee has the stock pitman arm with approximately a 2" drop, bossman's cherokee has the 6.5" RC long arm kit, pitman arm drops 4". so yes, about 2" more drop is what you'd need. sorry about the confusion, i was referring to 4" drop from bottom of...

    project "Frank" a.k.a. shop leftovers

    i think i'm going to pull the trigger on using this bumper. i have a question about doing some mounts for it though... how far up do the hdoffroadengineering front stiffeners go up to? i'm going to be ordering fronts and mids this week. i had the idea of making the mounts extend back to the...

    Leaf spring bushings not centered... is that a problem?

    looks like the bushing is in a metal sleeve. a ball-joint tool works really well for pushing those bushings in and out. try that.

    project "Frank" a.k.a. shop leftovers

    we had a set of 35" KMs laying around and i wanted to see what they look like: while i'm not a fan of 10" wheels with like 2" backspacing, it definitely looks more aggressive! hmm... i suppose that just about catches us up to where i am now. some idiot backed into it the other day and...

    project "Frank" a.k.a. shop leftovers

    i picked up a relatively straight '93 with the 4.0/AW4/231, D30/8.25 for $400 a couple months ago. it had been in an accident involving a runaway tree, so someone had done a poor repair involving a grey fender, hood, and header panel from a comanche. 250,000 miles of neglect and...

    Nitro Axles

    i heard that they are using the same supplier that yukon used to have so many QC issues with, but i can neither confirm or deny this. i just installed a set in a cj with a waggy 44 and they look like beef.

    RC Drop Bracket Issue

    LOL we had a guy come into the shop the other day with that exact same problem. had some automotive repair shop install the kit, and they didn't install the caster pieces. when it came in i'd say it had about -6 degrees of caster due to the lowers pushing all the way back and the uppers being...

    F/S: Beginning of a buggy and tubing

    i'm interested in buying a set of those HD stiffeners, but you can buy the fronts and mids new for $210 + shipping.

    Extended Control Arms

    i'd recommend getting the lowers. you can adjust caster, and they're WAAY stronger than the factory stamped pieces.

    axle/gear question

    any c-clip axle can walk out if you break one. there is nothing else holding them in, except the caliper if you have rear discs.

    Alignment?

    the alignment machine isn't going to care what size tires you have on it because the operation of the alignment machine is only dependent on the wheel size. you need to have all of the same backspacing/size wheels to properly align a vehicle. i understand that if you're measuring toe at the...
