Thanks!

Fix up the jeep. That sounds like a great jeep being it has low miles

@@TroyLee- thank you! 🙏

I had them straight before. But the springs contacted the track bar mount. No change in handling, it's only looks and this is a trail rig so I don't care. Not worth the time or money to change it

@@TroyLee- I understand completely, as long as it's not binding up or anything why mess with it more. This is a awesome build though man.

Thanks, yours looks good too

Not sure in centimeters. I don't remember exactly but something like 3" in the rear and 2" in the front

@@TroyLee- thx

So that is an ARB bumper that I cut up to look better

@@TroyLee- you do anything to the exhaust? I ordered a flow master 44 muffler that I’m going to install soon

Yeah it's catless and I put a 10 series muffler on it dumped right in the middle. I did a video on here of building the exhaust

So that I did not do. It came with those sliders. I would check out bleepinjeep on youtube. It's going to be the same process as the xj's sliders/rockers

Nice!

Thanks man I appreciate it

They're rubicon express springs

I got one coming soon. Made a few changes since the last one

Not this one. I saw another one same color with beadlock wheels for sale recently. Probably that one

@@TroyLee- Ahh! Yeah I think it might be that same one. Hopefully have my 9er back up here shortly. Just got the feame stiffeners ordered up for it. Be cool to catch another 9er out at uwharrie at some point 🤙

Nice! What color is your zj? Hopefully we are going to URE in the next couple weeks. Waiting on my buddy to fix his jeep. Dickey bell should be open soon too

@@TroyLee- Its Slate Grey. Have had it for the last 10ish years, its been sitting the last 3 yeara, just letting the NC sun beat away at it. Havent had much time to tinker with it with school and traveling for work. Its nothing crazy, 7 inch Long armed on 35's, HP30/8.8 set up with lockers and 4.56 gears. Was my daily for a while until I picked up my car, so held off on Ton swapping it with coilovers. Its needs some TLC. Ive never been out to Uwharrie, but have heard good things. I came down here from PA about 5 years ago. Used to wheel up at Rausch Creek up there all the time. In addition to the ZJ, workin on my brothers 8" Long armed 4.7L stroked XJ and doing a frame swap/tub resto on my buddies YJ. Hopefully there will be an end too the madness soon.

Right on man. At least you didn't sell it. So you still have plenty of time to get it back on the trails. Hit me up when you get it back out there

I don't have any plans to sell it. But you never know. I could find a good deal on something else in the future. As for now I plan to keep it and continue building it

I am running 4.11 gears. 4.56 or even 4.88 would also be a good gear set for this tire size

Thanks for the info. I'll check it out

@@TroyLee- What's the coolest are the X-max ZJ fenders, formerly Icelandic fenders, if I was doing a trail ZJ I'd use that MasterPull ZJ as the model it has the original Icelandic fenders on it and looks amazing and it's on 37's with some trick axles...

@@VenturaITthe Icelandic company was bought by notch customs who still make them. I had a 12 week wait, but they are awesome. @jeepzj2.0

The tie rod is home made. The drag link and trac bar is the ruff stuff DIY steering kit

Around 7-8". In this video I lowered it to around 6". But I raised it back up after flexing it out

Okay

Okay

Okay

Okay

Okay

Thanks man! My zj was no gem when I first got ahold of it

Rubicon express 5.5" front and 4.5" rear. On grand cherokees the height varies because those numbers apply to the cherokee. Also you can't use my jeep as an example for height using those springs because I am using different spring mounts on a different axle and using spring spacers. So my lift height is closer to 8"

@@TroyLee- thank

Yeah her dad made her do it. Off camera I tried to help her and have her back up to take the easier line and her dad made her gun it forward into the wall instead. They spent at least 15 min there sending it

@@TroyLee- Skee Yee 😄

Yeah I like the lower look better. But unfortunately I raised it back up days later and it's stayed in its big size. The issue is when it goes up a obstacle, it bottomed out the rear. So until I work out a better coil for the rear that takes a heavier load, it has to stay big. All the recent videos of offroading are all with it big again. You can check those out. I got more comfortable in it and it's body roll

Thanks!

Nice man! Maybe we will see you out there again. We might be out again this weekend

Yes 5.9

Yes 1998

Yeah it got worse after that video too. Now the window doesn't go up more than halfway. Track on the inside broke a tac weld and it goes all over the place. So a new door is in the works

Haha I hadn't noticed that. I just looked it up and supposedly that's thr Canadian liter? I guess certain year cherokees and grand cherokees had litre instead of liter. Here is a article of people talking about it www.cherokeeforum.com/f59/help-settle-arguement-litre-vs-liter-130170/

my CA zj has 'litre' and my US zj has 'liter'. Well, someone stole it or it fell off but was a funny thing to notice after like a year of owning both

I'm planning to get a antirock sway bar for the rear in the future. Right now it has no sway bars at all

I am running zj pitman arm drilled to accept bigger bolt for ruffstuff drag link kit

Are you talking about the exterior trim not matching the other doors? That's because the limited trim is extremely hard to find and it didn't have it when I got it. And there is a huge dent underneath that it's covering. So I found a trim piece for a not limited and threw it on until a find the correct limited one

@@TroyLee- can't be rotated to match the trim lanes? :D

@oktanskioktan9372 haha no you cannot flip it upside down. It's not like a perfect rectangle. Plus how it mounts and the fender side and door side are different. Even top is different from bottom. And only at a certain distance does it even remotely look like that's possible. If you look closely one panel the grooves go in, and the other they come out and have an extra indention line. So no it's not possible to flip them. I am not too worried about it because this is a offroad rig and those things will get torn off again on the trail

Yeah man all those guys in the video are cool

Thanks man!

So none of my suspension is a kit. It's all home built. It's custom triangulated 4 link in the rear. Front is modified 78 ford front suspension

Yeah I meant 18k. I noticed it after I published it and was waiting for somebody to call me on it. As far as suspension for d60's when i make the change, I will be building everything myself in house

Front bumper is arb that's had the top section cut off to make it look cleaner

Xfap?

@@TroyLee- crap...I keep forgetting to read before I post

Oh gotcha. I don't have any issues with my brakes. I have a 78 bronco front axle and brakes so that could be why

@@TroyLee- Yeah I think the brakes are adequate unless you are towing heavy loads.

Thanks! I really appreciate it. I have spent every weekend for almost a year working on it
