Guest, UPDATE We went through the site migration runbook and completed all steps. We will need to complete the migration next week, but will leave the forums up for the weekend. A few days after maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.
I've been keeping an eye on this trip but I have plans for that weekend already. If our other trip falls through I'm definitely interested in the central Oregon one.
I rides pretty good, I had read where a lot of people said 4.5" on short arms is too much and makes them ride like crap but I didn't really notice much difference from how it was before. These new springs are also stiffer than the previous one, 175 lbs per inch vs. 225 lbs per inch which also...
Got my new suspension parts on! 4.5" lift coils, Bilstein shocks, adjustable rear control set and a few other things. So when are we hitting the trails? Or at least getting a meetup together so we can plan for a trail run? It's getting to be time to head for the mountains!
Finally got around to installing my new suspension parts. List of parts included 4.5" Clayton offroad coil springs, Bilstien shocks, Iron Rock Offroad adjustable rear control arm set, front bar pin eliminaters and longer JKS quick disconnects. Installation was pretty straightforward since I've...
Well, I attempted to get the suspension work done this weekend but once everything was out on the bench I noticed I got shorted one piece I had ordered from IRO. Gave them a call this morning, they were super nice about it and have one on it's way. So since I was already out at the shop at 7...
Thanks, your WJ looks pretty good too. How is it running the 35's with only 4" of lift, seems like they'd rub a lot when you flex. We make it over towards Walla Walla a few times per year to camp and hit the trails. Where do you go around there?
Anyone else from the tri cities area plan on heading out the the Juniper clean up this weekend? As long as I don't get any calls for broken equipment in the morning I'm gonna head out until at least noon. We have some friends in town this weekend so I'll have to leave some what early.
I'd take a guess, but I really have no idea of what it might be... I am curious to see what it is and how you like pulling the trailer with your WJ set up the way it is. I've been kicking around the idea of building or buying something one day since there isn't much storage space in the WJ...
Not sure where I read about them being a direct swap, but it's an easy upgrade. If anyone is looking to do it make sure to get the 160A because there is a 136A for some of the Durangos. Here is the part number for the one I got from Napa.
Has anyone tried getting out into the hills anywhere yet this year? Curious what snow levels are looking like around the area, east or west of here. Heard from a friend of a friend that snow level is around 3300' trying to get up to Bethel ridge. Looking to get out for a weekend, might just...
Out with the old, in with the new!
New exhaust consists of Magnaflow high flow car, Dynomax muffler, Dynomax tailpipe and a couple 18" pieces of pipe all 2.5". I also replaced the O2 sensors while I was at it.
Also while at the shop I installed some Molle panels on the center console that I...
New exhaust! Magnaflow high flow cat, Dynomax muffler and Dynomax tailpipe all in 2.5"
While at the shop I also welded a tab to the roof rack for a whip flag and fixed the mount for my cb antenna in preparation for Juniper next weekend.
I'm going to try to make it to this for a while also. My wife just told me we have some friends in town this weekend so I might be able to come out Saturday morning for a while. @Ceg, let me know when you plan on getting to camp Fri night and I'll at least swing through to say hi on my way home...
Haven't gotten started on the suspension yet but I did make a minor upgrade to the electrical system yesterday. Replaced the battery with an AGM deep cycle and changed the alternator out for one for an '02 Durango. Direct swap and an increase from 136A to 160A, not a huge improvement but a...
Sounds like a pretty good set up, mines not there yet but someday. How much you want for the T case? I've already swapped mine to the 242hd but will need to do the SYE here shortly when I go up in lift.
