Took out the Cherokee over Labor Day to Cat House in Western Ks. Its just a large tract of private property in BFE but is covered in nasty draws and switchbacks of all sizes. I did one that looked like it had never been touched before. Its hard to see in the pictures but it was over 5' deep and had the Jeep teetering in these pics.

I was on the bumpstops on all of these.







Showing some perspective.

Are you swayless all around and what width are those tires 215?

holycaveman

No sways at all. Tires are like 32" tall 7.5 tread width 235x85x16. 2 to 2.5" lift.

Shocks are long travel in the front and rear.

Same pose.

Whyd you go thin on the tires. Just curious.

This is from last summer When I first did my BB. Use this as inspiration to wanna go bigger and flex better. After I redo my leaf springs in 2 weeks I'll see why I can pull off

In my op skinny tires are better for hill climbing, and slick trails when you have to hold or find a line. I have had both. And I won't go back to wide tires. Much easier to steer, better in the snow. Better in mud. Won my first mud run with these tires against mostly tsl's and boggers.

Yep that was me, built the hood from scratch.

Trussed 8.8 with Detroit and 1.5" spacers in the back. Leaf setup is Rough Country with a long leaf removed and shackle re locator. Also has a torque arm. Front is Rough Country long arm. I cut out the inner fenders and re welded them back together for more room to stuff. Front axle is a trussed hp dana 30, 30 spline axles, Ox Locker, reclocked and braced knuckles etc with 1" spacers. Hockey pucks for bump stops front and rear. Wheels are Eagle Alloy 16" x 8" 185's that I powder coated on 315 Treadwrights that measure 35".
