Have the shackles out front proven troublesome on approach angles at all, i.e. are you stuffing and scraping them on rocks and the like? That's the only thing that jumps out about it that I would be concerned over. It looks like you did a nice job with the conversion and it flexes well.

yeah idk if i'm going to be going this time dont really feel like driving there in it. it all over the place on the road haha

 

[98CherokeeSport]

ya i wouldnt drive mine that far either lol im trailering mine down so its no biggy for me

 

[McJesse]

yeah we dont have a truck and trailer big enough to haul our haha but its not so bad driving it but its just that fact that if you break it then you have no way to get it home really. but i took it on some trails there a couple weekends ago and it did great no problems at all with stock axles (D30 in the front & D35 in the rear) with 33's. went where everyone else went. and dont really want to waste a tank of gas right now haha

98cherokeesport, I saw you the other night in Bonney Lake going up an icey hill on kelly lake road by my house, and I saw your rig outside of Frankies pizza in town tonight. Sorry, way off topic.

 

[98CherokeeSport]

X2. If it suits your driving style, more power to you... this setup would NOT work with the places I like to go wheeling.

 

[98CherokeeSport]

I wheel the pacific northwest so there isn't anything here leaf springs can't do. If I did all rock climbing like down south then leafs wouldn't be a good idea. But everything I have ever wheeled can be done with this setup

 

[87xjstafford]

Yeah I was helping direct people up the hill so it wasnt as big of a cluster f%*k. The hill turns into a zoo when its icey.

x2 on the cherokee forum banning.

x3 :wierd:

Actually looks like it works better then i would have thought.. Leafs tend to be stiff and very unforgiving.. but these look soft enough to do the job :attom:

Having seen some of the places that John wheels, I have to agree (*gasp*). Those would get in the way.

X2! The only thing that would be better would be having the shackles on the rear. But in order to do so the front would still have to hang down alot.
