Hey, I am mostly a Toyota guy, but I thought I'd throw up some pics of a Jeep that I helped build that I think is pretty cool.
Specs:
CJ7 extended W.B. ~103? ( I forgot, maybe Gary will chime in)
AMC 304
NP 465
2 Toyota 'cases, 4.7 in the rear case.
full width chevy 4d44 front, Chromos ARB and all the shit
Uncut Bronco 9" rear ARB
37" MTRs
Lots of other details

Winch, 9.5 Ti

Took it to Glen's for the shakedown run

what springs are on the front? There huge, why didnt you use some springs with an off set pin?

They are 44044's None of the equipment was my decision. I just helped put it together.

Oh, check out the belly. It was a bitch.

:d

More....

Sweet looking build but...why is the guy in the first pic groping himself and looking confused? Did he find something he didn't expect? Nice work on the belly!

Glen's got a cool little rockpile.....

Well, our day was cut short due to a slashed tire, but I'll post more in the future.... (damn MTRs!)
Later John

That doesn't look too tall for 44044s. Are they new, used or missing a leaf?
Where did you stretch the front. I could see the steering box seems to be in the stock location but obviously the new front cross member is way forward.
Looks good.

We lopped off the whole front of the frame just ahead of the body mount because it was bent like a mo-fo. Its all fabbed out of 2x4" tube

who needs approach angle when you have that kind of front end ? :flipoff2:

Looks like it would be fun to play with. Don't bring it to Washington though. Exhaust is not legal in this state for off road use. Must have a spark arrester (baffled muffler)

It's not legal here either, but if you don't have to smog it then what's stopping you from having it?

Just stay away from the Liberal "West-side" :flipoff2: of the state and you'll be fine. :smokin:

Last summer the Rangers were on the trails giving out tickets for not having a "spark arrester" to those with glass paks.
East side mostly, but were on both sides.

what size tube did you use for the belly?

Sweet setup, the belly work came out nice :D

Yeah i know how that goes. Digging the belly skin here is one we did just to give others some ideas

I'd be screwed then as I don't have room for anything but glasspacks.


I forsee super traps in my future :D
