[QUOTE=Gorillaxj;1637375]Lame!!



inverted t. i swapped it back to crossover at lunch. The crazy roll steer is easier to deal with than DW.
Still need to test drive it to insure I can't provoke it into DW again. I am waiting for some JB weld to set. My dust shield tack came loose on one of the front calipers and is making all kinds of noise on the road. It makes my rig sound like a hoop-D mobile to passers by....and I just can't have that

Yeah it blew up a little before, then the "slap on the wrist" and its been better ever since! Its nice... a bit more BS, truly lol but its a little more light-hearted and more fun IMO! Even gained a few BS'ers lol

People argue tooth and nail that the weight makes no difference. "It's unsprung!"

Whatever, right?

I'd say a lot of it was seasonal depression as always in the offroad community!

i'd like to go but unless i can find a rig to tow the XJ out then i won't be there. it's pointless to run "the snakes" in the ZJ when i can bypass them and go up and checkout the mines up sunshine canyon and miners canyon.

Lol, It makes a huge difference, its rolling mass that takes more energy to stop and go... off road I don't think its an "advantage" or "disadvantage" though.
