it wants to crawl on something

[rhulain]

I'm Evan I really love taking the jeep out when i can. I dislike mud cuz when its there i just have to swerve for it. i really do prefer crawling on things from rocks, boulders, fallen trees, difficult mole hills, or staggering mountains. I drive a Tj Named Rhulain green I literally got my lift on the night before last.a 3 in sky jacker makes a world of difference on the look but so dose my fenders Im in the process of making.


in this pic i have one fender done and one in my garage being finished.

Im in the USMC and when im out i drive thees i was really surprised at how well they handled and with care you really could crawl over anything. Having selectable lockers, 46in mitchlin tires and armor oh ya. http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc ... 7111_n.jpg

Kind of the same deal except you have to re-size the photo to the dimensions specified on this site. And, you do not use the img tags.

At least that's how I do it using photobucket. There could be an easier method, but I seem to be good at doing things the hard way.

rhulain, welcome to the site and way to just launch in.

Welcome. . .

Could you explain the fenders?

Could you explain the fenders?

Ditto... :popcorn:

[rhulain]

sure i loved the look of the metal cloak fender but theres no way i could pay the price. so i made my own in a way. I really like square tube so thats what i used i made every thing my self out of used metal that i put the time in to clean up. os far i have only had to pay for the lights $15. the square tube $40, and the yj hood latch $13. thats for both fenders and the flairs. so a total of 68 bucks, sure thats not including the cans of paint.

[Grumpy]

You're not done yet, right?

[rhulain]

i compleatly replaced my inner fender as well. so i when i pay off my jeep i can get some money back out of the stock fender. with out cutting it up. Also my fenders allow me to fit 35 inch tires with no lift, and with my 3 in lift i can fit 37 in tires. sadly i only have 33x12.5 right now. but i havent up graded my axles yet. so play smart till i gear up or axle and gear up. what id like to do is go to dana 60 and 4.88 or 5:13 gears ands slip yoke eliminator. big plans high hopes.

[tobyw]

Are you going to incorporate a flare to provide any tire coverage?

[rhulain]

no not yet i still have the flairs and and finish the battery bracket on the right side. it cant be down for long its my daily driver.

[rhulain]

i am not to worried to much thuo

[iaccocca]

I think the question is, "Why is the fender flair up not out?
And on the upgrades, I think you are right, but the 60 is overkill. For now go play on the 33s and figure out what you need.

[Grumpy]

Personally, if you leave it as is, I think you're a ticket looking to happen, on or off road...Best be learning the fender laws we have to deal with.

[rhulain]

im going to make a build up page. i know its over kill on the the axle i just prefur the full float. dana 35 and most dana 44 are all semi float

[rhulain]

i not too worried because the flair is going on this weekend and im not driving it till next week.

[rhulain]

the law as iv seen it is the tires shouldn't be further than 2 in. outside of the vehicle or flair. that's what it is on base and that fairly congruent to most states.

[rhulain]

a lot of the bigger items I for see long down the road. not any time soon. Im content with what i got so far. and i buy much of my stuff i use secound hand.

[White trash]

A fender that goes up to look like a highline fender from a distance but not actually do it. So what's next, a snorkel?

[rhulain]

yes it is on the list of wants of it. i have been up to the hood brifley twice going through water. once during mudding and the during a hurricane/flood waters, "in NC" if your wondering where. i try not to go deep the idea of hydro lock dosent sound fun.
