PEAK PUTTERS

I have been planning this for a while now and do not have a job, but recently came into some $ and am itching to get started. the first issue I have run into is the trailer will most likely be under 1,500lbs and the only way I can buy a pre made axle with 6 on 5.5 bolt pattern, is to buy a 3,500lb ...

I'm gonna do some on my parents Cj5, but not yet.

I have to get a ram and build a cart for my new bender still before I can use it.

I got the T18 and D20?, seperated but all is there, could be bolted back together.

I have no idea on price, $150 obo for both.

I'm not familar with old jeep parts so if you want pics lmk.

3" overkill for a turbo 4 banger.

I'd do 2.5" possibly.

Thinking these might be better for my rear end.

Xj rear leafs.

Thanks very much

Need 47" front toy springs

My friend went to American and they ran the exhaust real close to some wires and ended up melting them on startup.

Kinda both faults. I would have checked that but besides that think he was happy with then.

I'll have to have someone run some on my Sami as it'll be 3" probably.

Trades. As in?

Put a cheapy 2" coil spacer lift, and new shocks, waiting to get paid for new 235/75 bighorns (130$ pc at Jegs) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v112/RadicalPede/1e117081.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v112/RadicalPede/4bd3d8a4.jpg Plans are just to throw some 235s on it, start DD'n it ...

Looks like a good mild wheelin DD. I got me one of them projects too.

Use to have an XJ, good power but horrible gas mileage (renix), like 13-15mpg.

Techinically missing 20" of stock frame and the wholefront end.

I added 24" of new frame straight out and will be a tube front end. :p

Yes I am. It depends on how much cash i feel like dropping at the given time for parts. Changes the whole plan. I know what i got in my head but as the build goes on things are going to alter.

Idk im just planning as i go. Going to get it linked and some steel rod to hold it at ride height and go to drivetrain.

One thing at a time and whatever i can swing.

4 air shocks and 2 sway bars do the exact same thing for half the cost. Ori's are all about packaging on moon buggies period. Stop trying to keep up with rockmike, he has more tools and far more money than you. Are you going to buy the shocks over a 3 month period and have no money for anything els...

Thats a high guess. ORI struts are 650 pc

No idea plans change alot. Go with the flow and drop $$ til its done lol.

Assumin ill have 10k or so said n done.

Making me 12000 into my sami start to finish.

Went to do a 3 link/motor swap and kept tearing stuff off til I realized its now a buggy build. :lol: Front clip, rear radiused fender wells (leave a sami look to it) Make up your mind are you using the.front clip on a buggy build or putting the body back on? Not a full out buggy (my bad), the fron...

Well at least you'll get the overbuilt boring crap out of the way while your young enough to have plenty of time to build something exactly like you had before you wasted your time tearing it apart. :lol: Personally I'd stick with the plan but put the body back on. Body is going on, just going to c...

I second what OG said - I can appreciate the time/effort it takes to build a rig. That said, my question for you would be why? I mean, if you can't afford to build it, why are you doing it? There isn't anywhere around these parts that requires a rig with that sort of hardware, and if you can't affo...

I appreciate your commitment. Yea know, I aint made of money, but I seek to get stuff done. I've been really motivated lately, only thing slowing me down is money. Toyota axles are all brand new, just need new yukon 5:29s and and weld the trussing on/do link mounts and they are done. New locker/spo...

Went to do a 3 link/motor swap and kept tearing stuff off til I realized its now a buggy build. :lol: Inverted 4 link rear 3 link/panhard front Built yota axles (5:29s 1.3 GTI (DOHC/forged/10:1 compression, MPFI, its identical to a Sami block) Tracker 5 speed, tracker t-case (1:1/2:28 I think) D300 ...

Aint got nothin but time. Sami is down to a frame. Wouls like to pay $300

Need me a Jeep Dana 300 (not sure if there is much difference in others)

I dont think you get stuck at Juniper. Its a decent place to test/break stuff though.

Need a wagoneer pitman arm, for my Scout 2 box like the title says.
