I like this comment:

The rear end has 2 Skyjacker extended hydro shocks, 4.88 gears with a Detroit locker and "curly fry" breather hose to make the differentials run cool

Huh :confused:
No mention of axle swaps either... good lord :D

Looks like his mechanic must be busy: :rolleyes:

Vehicle Condition

The speedometer blew when I put on the 44's since then it has only been driven about 400 miles, but the RPM still works. The 2 front tires also need to be rebalanced because of the new steering components I recently put in. Both these are minor problems and can be fixed easily. Also the radio needs a new fuse in order to make it work again, a small tear in the back fender carpet about 3 inches long(not too noticeable) , and the KC's could use a new wire set up !

Considering I'm new here, I must have no idea what is going on, right? :flipoff2:

What pisses me off is the amount of people who will turn their heads as it drives down the street (assuming it drives...) and say to themselves, "Wow, that is badass!" All the while some guy in a bone stock 2.5L YJ with some decent MTs can whup the snot out of that POS.

FAWK CHROME! :flipoff2:

And to inform the buyer that a fuse needs to be replaced?! What kind of a fawkin' idiot is this guy?

Here are my favorite quotes:

can be used for Show, mud bogging,rock crawling or a daily driver

...Yeah--just don't be surprised when your axles explode.

Supposedly this is the FIRST Jeep TJ on 44's!

...FIRST person dumb enough to put 44s on stock axles anyhow.

"Over $35,000 put into this jeep. One of a kind and can be used for Show, mud bogging,rock crawling or a daily driver"

Obviously used for show...I wanna meet this sucker and the idiot who buys it from him...I have a TON of stuff to sell!!!!

also take a look at how he took the picture off road...but see the pavement behind the jeep...what a retard :flipoff2:

It may not be a great finished product. But it is still lot further than most people get to. Wouldn't take that much work to make that thing real....

Who else do you know that runs 44's on a TJ (pics poooleaase)

Piece, pile, boatload, slice, whatever.

As long as we agree it's crap.

I'm not sure what's more scary about those axles: the 44's on the outside or the 4.88's inside...

Whats sad is he could have spent that $35,000 making it into a badass off-road rig...but instead he makes it into a pos :rainbow: mall crawler :rolleyes:

FWIW

Somebody on JU forum e mailed the guy about his axles... his response was they are Currie built 44's Detroit locked in the rear and Precision 4.88 gears

And he didn't deem that information important enough to put in his ad on e-bay? The guy's an idiot.
