I agree! There's no good damage. I just noticed some more damage on mine today when cleaning out the truck. When you run the harder trails body damage if highly likely, unless you get lucky or pick the perfect line, but it's hard when it's the first time you've ever run the trail.

I agree, it comes with the territory. The harder the trail the more likely you are to have damage

I've got video of the #8 hole. I'm still working on getting it up. Work has been crazy this week. I guess thats what happens when you take off 2 days in a busy week. I'll have it up in a couple of days.

Thanks for the compliments everyone.

I have the BJ Spacers up front with a little torsion bar crank. I think I'm 16 1/4 fenders to wheel.

I have FJ80 Land Cruiser Coils out back and a Downey 1.5" pan hard drop bracket a marlin extended brake line.

I have Rancho 9000s for my shocks. I can get part #’s if you need them.

The cruiser coils gave me a little more lift than I wanted but I’m very happy with the out come. I have huge amounts of articulation. The street ride is better than stock. I would recommend the lift to anyone wanting lots of articulation for the less amount of money.

You guys suck for making me have such a good time.

I can’t get any work done because I can’t stop thinking about how much fun the trip was. Plus my wallet is getting much litter.

I plain to take on slickrock the next time and maybe some of the others .

I’ll have my rear locker and sliders on plus my front and maybe even my rear bumper before the next trip.

I have a vidoe of the ZJ( Grande) taking the mud hole, but other than that, it's all on Greg. I would really love to take Slickrock on the Fall Colors ride, but I'll think about it after I see it again. I should have 33s and a 2" Bl by then(crossing my fingers.

Chris I found a really good shot of that white Jeep's upper control amrs. I'll see if I can make it fir somehow and get it up for ya soon.

Here ya go Chris, these are the best 2 shots I have of the Jeep's link system. I wish we had had the foresight to tkae pictures while we were walking around it at camp. Then we could have got really good detail for your inspiration. Good luck, I can't wait to see what comes out of your garage next. Have you ordered the 35s yet?

JEEP PICS.

Thanks Scott! We'll see, but first thing is to finish the front crossmember, then on to bigger and better things, hint, hint!

Post up that vid of the grand if you can... (It's mine) If not, just email it to me at csimonds@gmail.com and maybe I can get it hosted on Imagestation or something. Thanks!

We had a real good time with yall at the hole on 8 and watching those FJs tackle the top of slickrock. I didn't realize it at the time, but I ripped off a lower shock mount hitting that hole so hard...

Hey ATL ZJ,
Were you the one running around with the yellow YJ/TJ/Wrangler or whatever it is called?
