Hey whats up all!!!

I just joined this forum, I been a member of Jeepsunlimited forum for a while and one member suggested I join this one!!!!
So just wanted to introduce myself to all!!!=)


By, the way anyone willing to HELP OUT on installing a RE 5.5 6200 kit in the near future??? I'm located in Bellevue, I'll supply the beer and food....

SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD TIME? Let me know!!

Thanks,
Chris
 
Well, I'm a bit far to help ya (hehe) but WELCOME TO NAXJA! Great group here, very respectable and giving. My Jeep build would have taken 5 times longer if not more had these guys not stepped up and helped when needed! Good luck on that lift! Post pics when that bad boy's done!
 
just give a heads up, I had "fun" doing mine.
 
4SURE!!! It's a 1992 Laredo, 4 door 5 speed.

My plans

1st. 5.5 RE 6200 kit
2nd . Rear Dana 44
3rd. 35'sx12.50 baja claw - with some locking wheels (Not sure yet)
4th. Gearing most likely 4.88's
5th. Bushwacker FF
6th. Exhaust, but not sure so could use some good advice on what both preforms good and sounds good! (DEEP and MEATY) you guys know bout it!ha

7th. KICKING ASS & TAKIN" NAMES
 
Hey i have the same lift! I think, is that the short arm or the long arm, i have the short arm! I had Central 4WD install cuz i didn't have the proper tools and i didnt want to mess with the driveline and SYE. Looking at mine it doesn't look too hard. Im not an expert but im willing to help!

I'm a n00b that uses my resources and learns from other peoples mistakes. I don't have an RE lift, mine is an OME.

I love my OME springs they freaking rock. I just wish I had been able to test them last weekend on the RTI ramp.

Yeah, i mean i think so, i don't know what other people think. But i dont know i mean it looks cool and its street legal but i had a hard time going up the RTI ramp at the BBQ cuz i couldn't see my tires, i needed a spotter and everyone tells me they get ripped off easily. There are some pix on BBQ thread!
