[N-Smooth]

UPDATE:

a little more got done

and there may be a change in hood plans...more to come

 

[RockMonkey]

Ohhhh... That's the FRONT end...

 

[tweakeyjeep]

Low COG??

Is that how low it's going to be (of course it will be bigger when you get the tires on it)?

that would be good for your COG, but how close is the chassis going to be to the rocks if that's the height your planning on running?

Looks good!

I believe there are some 39.5 IROK's in the works. That'll change his chassis to ground ratio a little......

yeah, and the shocks are just what came from teh factory so they will need to be adjusted for more PSI...its not gonna be a ton higher but it will be some higher...

man I thought it was a rear engine configuration

That's cool. I like the idea of it being a bit lower to have a better COG, but I was going to say, it looks a little too low right now.

39.5's would be sweet... Scott wants those for his CYJ-7 just for the bragging rights (what a weenie! )

So you just need to add a bit more nitrogen in your shocks? What kind of travel do those put out?

 

[RockMonkey]

16 inches

 

[cyberduke]

[Caleb]

UPDATE:

[Herzog]

What are your plans for the front clip?

btw - the race is on.

 

[RockMonkey]

Man I want to see it with real tires...

 

[Caleb]

for right now its lookin like a durango front clip...I'm gonna get a grill this next week probably and see how it fits and what I can do with it if it doesn't fit very well...I honestly think the durango hood is going to be an almost exact fit and the grill should be pretty close too...




BRING IT!!!

 

[Caleb]

Man I want to see it with real tires...

yeah, tell me about it...Carl said if they had time today they were going to stick his tires and wheels on it but they didn't...you just dont get the full effect till the tires and wheels are on
