Got it together enough to flex it today. It seems to be working well. I didnt drive it much but it felt a lot different than the leafs. The rear steer is instant now. It felt like it had a kind of lag with the leafs but now its solid. It felt as stable or more so around the corners. I dont...

I sometimes wish I could go the way of the visa wheeler. Just take my junk to a shop and say this is what I want done and pick it up a few weeks later. Thats no fun tho. I do get a lot of enjoyment out of something that I built works good. It doesnt happen everytime but once in awhile...

How did it drive after the alignment? Any road issues? that SAS kit was a lot more involved than I thought it would be but a dang sweet kit. It had EVERYTHING except the front axle. I was impressed. Eric did 99% of the work and it turned out great. I was a dang good supervisor for...

We are heading up to the family cabin in the Uintah mountains. If all goes well, I might drag the Scout up. Nothing challenging up there (thats open to public anyway) but it would be fun to cruise around. Also a couple people are bringing 4 wheelers up to mess around on. We have 19 acres...

ya....she does not ask for much...............at all. Every time we go somewhere its what I want to do so I am scared for my life if I say no to the one thing she wants to do...lol

I will be there again this year. Im kind of considering bailing out early and heading up to Providence canyon for a few hours in the after noon.

OK.....Im out already...lol The 12th is Peach Days up in Brigham City. My pregnant wife said we are not missing Peach Days. Sorry and good luck!

TOYO mts. good luck on the 1000 dollar budget tho. I will be buying 6 of them for the dually before to long........OUCH

I am going to TRY to make it. I do need to test out the new 4 link tho so I do plan on wheeling that day. As long as that goes well I should be there

yup. coil is attached on both ends. The top is bolted down with a plate. The bottom has 2 loops that the coil twists into to hold it down. even with that tho Im going to need limit straps. A Rockwell and a big ol 47 on a HEAVY wheel will pull that coil into a nice straight piece of...

gotcha.....that is actually the ram for the rear steer. Your seeing the hyraulic line going into it

Are you looking at the stainless steel brake line heading to the caliper on the pinion brake?

My plan for bump stops is fairly simple. Im going to get the cone looking ones that are about 2 1/2" long. I will mount them on a tube cut to length and mount them inside the coils. They are going to look a little falic but they will work

I finally broke down and cut my leaf springs off the back. I really liked how the leafs performed but with as soft and flexxy as they were I kept bending them and ruining them. When I went to Fordyce I broke both centering pins on them on a super steep ledge i was trying to climb and I was...

Wish I could have made it as well. I planned to stop working on the Scout about 8 and head up in the Jeep but I was on a roll. Got a lot done. Next time I guess

Anyone interested in running a trail before hand? Snakes maybe? I should have my 4 link wrapped up by then and need to test it out.

:bow:

I just sold my 02 with 60,000 miles on it a few months ago. I really miss the truck but not the payment. I got a 02 Cummins and have been happy with it but I do miss my 7.3. Not for towing or anything like that. The dually is way nicer for towing but the Superduty was a nice truck...

I could possibly go this sat. Labor day is out for sure. The Scout wont be ready but I can just bring the XJ

Im running the 33" Toyo MTs on my XJ. I have 30k miles on them and they are still well over half tread! I drive the thing for work every day pulling a little enclosed trailer. They are decent off road but I dont think they can be beat for a dual purpose tire. Granted they are a lot more...
