your going to want a sway bar with those shocks on the front. looks good. can't wait to see this thing in person eventually.

jwend · 07-31-2011, 04:42 PM

this thig is going to be for sale or for trade when it is finished.. and that will be soon.. just a heads up I will trade for money a RZR or streetable jeep.. but it will take a little of all three or alot of one... going to be asking 27,000 for it.. i am very negotiable and it will come with a brand new car trailer... If you think i am asking too much i really dont want to hear yer opinion either.. i know what mine is and what is out there.. 90% of it is $hit, mine is right.

It is built,

Dana 60 front with spartan locker yukon cromos and Rpm slugs high steer arms with btf truss and full hydro with derail fan cooled cooler, linked with 8 1 1/4 hiems 2inch upper and lowers all set up by ruff stuff tabs and brackets 16 in fox airs 4.10

14 bolt rear with btf truss Overson mini spool, ruff stuff caliper brackets and 85 chev calipersLinked with all Johnny joints. 2 1/2 lowers 2 inch uppers to Gen right 4 link frame mount. 18 in fox airs 4.10

Tom Woods custom shafts

np205 transfer

th400 with a art car winters gate shifter with derail fan cooled cooler

05 70k mile chevy 5.3 with new jegs radiator shroud and fan

corvette master cylinder brake set up

CW built front bumper stinger and winch mount

Rear half of frame cut off and custom frame and bumper installed

Full roll cage tied to frame with seats tied to cage 3 prp high back comp seats and a preme seat for a kid, all with 5 point harnesses

It will come with a cb radio and wake board speakers

the dash has all auto meter gauges oil pressure water temp, fuel level, volts and fuel pressure. 12 fused switches.

The list on this thing goes on and on and on.. there was no cost spared in building this thing all high end parts and done right I love this thing and it pains me to sell it but I have things that are more important to take care of at this point. This is the only post for now but when its finished it will be posted on pirate and everywhere else..

George · 07-31-2011, 06:07 PM

George · 07-31-2011, 11:58 PM

I will get them to this week was not sure if you still needed them after the fallout

yellowjacket · 08-08-2011, 05:19 PM

So hows that 98% antisquat workin out? Is rear walkin under your rig when ur climbin? Or do u notice?

jwend · 08-08-2011, 05:43 PM

it works fine.. i don't feel or notice it wanting to at all... although i dont do hill shoots etc so it doesn't exactly have time... at normal speeds and crawling it tucks tail just like anything else... I have heard mixed emotions about 4 link calculators and off road... most i have heard is they are more geared towards the street side of things thus do not always equate out to being what is right off road... but that's just been threw some general conversation i have had with some folks..

jwend · 08-08-2011, 05:49 PM

its almost done... just have to reinstall the trans t case and shafts..

It is for sure that it is for sale! 27000.00 OBO and comes with a new car hauler

I am motivated to get it gone so make offer, looks like my move may be way sooner than i thought!

Trigger · 08-08-2011, 06:06 PM

What exactly is pulling a Bill? Trading a crawler for a streetable Jeep and then wanting another crawler? I see how you guys are.

It takes crazy time to wires stuff like that... that's why i buy my panels pre made... i have appreciation for that kind of patience.

Redriverranger · 12-03-2011, 05:18 PM

Holy **** batman, that's a lot of switches. Turn the key and start the engine, turn the lights on, turn the wipers on, turn the heater on. The rest is overkill unless this is some kind of James Bond super spy mobile, with lot's of trick gadgets to keep everyone from making the same lines you make.... Looks good though..

humpy · 12-03-2011, 07:00 PM

Nice work dude

Yeah it is alot, i like to be able to control everything on its own, switches are for radio, each set of rock lights and what ever else i may want to add but yes i think i have only wired to 6 or 8 of the 12 and have no clue what i will use the others for i also double switched a few things.. back up learn that one from a good buddy, switch crapped out on us on the nasty side of grape vine hit the back up and we went on our way.. i am excessive

jwend · 12-05-2011, 07:32 PM

Yes the switch panel is my work.. i can do them for anyone interested at a small fee

..... Worked on this some more yesterday, got my skid plate started and changed my x member a little wanted to protect the transfer case a little more and give it some more support from rotating.. also got my bump stop mounts fabed up.. will post some pics of progress in a few days coming along nice.. going to be wednesday before i can work on it again.. want to have it done to play in the snow a little bit.
