looks awesome cody

as in throttle position sensor? i think its on the throttle body little black box that screws to the side

my 03 factory sub worked with the METRA harness. just hooked it up color for color. i was concerned too...but it worked without any additional modifications.

Talk to Zach at A to Z Fab. http://www.atozfabrication.com

i agree with quantum. call zach. he did my cage in the tj. I never got the chance to try it out but i knew i could trust it.

a cage is a safety feature. i would not trust someone's "prototype" or a bolt in design over a custom built professionally welded cage. Ask Ian. he has tested his a couple times.

a posi-loc get rid of the factory setup. best 200 bucks you will spend

i agree with jerry. go with bestop. you get what you pay for

he did mention you WILL need spring compressors for the front.

a friend of mine put an Old Man Emu (2 inch i think) on his grand. looks great. he said it took him around 4 hours to put it on with shocks. added just enough to make it stand out without being giant. rides and handles like stock

you dont happen to have his number do you so i could contact him?

i got a reply from him through ebay and he told me there should be more up within the next 24 hours

someone from wilmington has a BUNCH on ebay

is this open to everyone...swap only or can we come shop and buy (flea market)

IMO 3.5 RE superflex lift, 33's and 4.10 gears if/when i get another TJ that is the setup i will run. it will go about anywhere you want to go offroad, and still be comfortable on road.

i had the 3.5 superflex, 1.25 body lift with 35's and 4.56 gears. great setup but the 35's were a little much for daily driving...

I am just impressed you still have the door nuts

why..i still have mine....just not the jeep they go on LOL

they look like something i may have to invest in.

Quote from bmf24

the warn rear bumpers are nice, but i have noticed the tire carriers sag out pretty bad with anything over a 35" tire

the building kit i was talking about is just the brackets and the hinge. didnt realize you wanted a tube bumper.

i had a warn on my TJ with carrier. depending on what i decide to do with the YJ i will most likley have AtoZ make me a carrier. was not impressed with the warn unit for what i paid. the powdercoating sucked, it started to sag, and the latch could be a PITA if you didnt keep it lubed regularly

if you are going to go custom anyway..talk to zach and buy the pieces you will need and some extra steel. no point hacking up a bumper to re-weld it and try to match the finish.

you can use scotchguard spray on the top at the seams to help keep water out. i do this on my halftop and it works like a dream. as for the zippers, i would take a rag with some WD40 on it and wipe them down every now and then. cleans the dirt off and puts a small layer on them. i had the soft top on my TJ for 4 years without a problem with zippers

i got the SYE, driveshaft, and upper control arms for my old TJ from them. id buy from them again.

Road Clean up HELP ONE MORE TIME
« on: March 05, 2008, 11:26:08 AM »

OK guys I need some help next Saturday the 15th. All of the tires that we piled up on the last clean up need to be put into dumpsters that are being supplied by the state. This is a big deal because the state and local government is now noticing our efforts and getting involved to remove these tires the “correct” way.

I can’t stress how much GOOD press we got from the last clean up and this next project will be huge to show how we can ban together on a short notice.

So the plan is this for next Saturday. Meet at our office no later then 9am and head over to the clean up area. Take the tires we got piled and place them neatly in the roll back trash containers. If we get enough help we may try to pull more of the tires from the woods.

What is in it for you? Come help in the AM and get free lunch and the rest of the day to go wheeling in the park.

PLEASE help me spread the word to all of the clubs in the area and let’s show the local government what we can pull off. Show them that our sport is not the image that most think of us.

Thanks
Bruce
