I just drove out and back from Philly to Pittsburgh for first time in a 24 hour period for a funeral...roads are decent til you hit Harrisburg but nothing to see just mountain after mountain.
I like it. It rides like a truck now, not like a car anymore... which honestly I think is why people complain about these springs so much. I think that they are used to the car-like ride and putting truck springs in it stiffens it up. I even took it down an old railroad bed (tracks and ties are removed, VERY rough) and I liked the way it handled and took the bumps. got up to almost 30, front stayed smooth and the rear started bottoming out so i slowed down...

Got new shoes!
Put the 3, 000 mile old Toyos onto the 2WD to replace the quickly disintegrating Scorpion ATRs. It's been a good day.

I finished the lift and took it for a shake down drive. Have some slight vibs at about 20 mphs. Need to fix the speedo but not bad otherwise. Packed the jeep with the new to me 33's and new wheels to go get mounted and a alignment in the AM.

Those wheels look good. Brand, size, width and backspacing? (On my phone, can't read the center cap)

Put my Dana 44 rear end up for sale so I could afford to replace my cracked transfer case. Got all but one but broke lose. Then it will come off.

After a recent tune-up and two years of working the kinks out, I just have to say today was a really fun day of ripping up the pavement. I'm going offroad in the next year after I buy a dd, so I'm having some fun with the street setup until then. =^ )

While doing 85down the freeway the gas tank strap decided to snap. Had to drive 2 miles with the tank about an inch from the ground. Found some rope and temporarily tied it up till I get home to buy the parts to fix.
