thats crazy that should have gone over by seeing how far over it already is. that is the rig to have one that dont want to ROLLOriginally posted by spencurai
this thing just did not want to roll over. We pushed it, full throttled hammered it, it just wouldn't flop over!!
how did you guys up AF canyon roll over so easy? I am in AWE!!

well, since it was stripped down so much, the center of cravity is way lower than it would normally be. Oh yeah, and Andy's fat butt holding it down too.

Chandler has a wheelbase issue. I have to give it up to Brent for building a monster, it flexs over every thing and goes anywhere you want. I still have to finish up some stuff, rear shocks, traction bar, getting it running better. Oh and I need to put a cage in it.

nice, one of the reasons could be, that one of those tires weighs more than all the metal above the dash board.

I'm in for 2901-3200 lbs....{Brent's probably pretty close though---what's the pool for--hopefully a new thermostat housing for an HO 4.0L?}

Is it just me, or does it look like that thing has almost no flex whatsoever? Specifically, take a look at this photo

you need to take into concideration just how little the back of that thing does weigh. the "massive" 44 in the back probably weighs more than all the "tin" from the rear seat back.http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/attachment.php?s=&postid=1651002
then look at that one.

definitely not flexed there..........the springs are actually pretty sweet flexers on a 'normal' XJ.........I expect it to move pretty well {same fronts as mine (if I remember correctly) and a 'rebuilt'/selected stock/augmented rear leaf pack by Brent}.
