Re: Advice please: '90 YJ Conversion
If you really want that much lift, tire clearance, you need to decide about
cutting the fenders, I'd just hack away and upgrade the drive train. If you want to keep the fenders, I'd get rubicon extreme 4 1/2" lift kit, and use those springs on a spring over application. That should get you the lift that you need. But you will need to do the SOA right, with the 4 link with those tires. Then, research your axles, and go from there. Lockers or not depends on your wheeling. sounds like desert to me, so why not a limited slip in the rear and a locker in the front? and gear it as low as you can in the axles, you'll need it to turn that rubber and still have any power.

Re: Re: Advice please: '90 YJ Conversion
Bill,
That's a great video that I've seen a few times. I understand your point, but to someone less understanding, that could come across 'insulting'. I really dont give a rat's ass, but do you think comments like that could be part of the reason for the trouble you've been getting? The fact of the matter remains that properly geared, the 2.5L provides adequate power off road while in low range. Carl "L.W.

Hi Carl,
That's why I corrected your post. You might actually mislead someone into buying a four banger. They're great for hauling around a Volkswagen, but put a transfer case in it and could get out of it's own way, let alone go off-road.

I suppose we have to agree to disagree here. I was very pleased with the 2.5L's performance in my 89 YJ, sprung over on 33's with 4.10 gearing. Highway included, I was not dissapointed.

It weighed about 3 tons and had military type tires around 36 inches tall in it and a engine driven winch. It was a tank off road and would go anywhere you pointed it and had right amount of power and gears for off road too. (first gear low range was about 2 MPH tops) If hill was too steep to climb you could winch yourself up in short order with good line speed and never worry about battery dying or winch overheating. I had a chance to buy that things years ago and kick myself for never doing it. It was 100% stock and it great shape too. Once on a old loging road we feel through a old wood bridge about 4 or 5 feet into creak below with a few feet of water in it. We simply drove down the creek for a while until we found a place to climb out and blaze a trail through brush and small trees to get back hillside to old logging road. It was a blast to drive off road. A V8 would not have made it any more fun to drive or able. The silly thing even supported a snokle but we never used that feature. ----------------- TheSnoMan.com |
