this was posted in the steering arm thread that has been up the last few days when they were talking about stingers......I want to know all about this thing...

That bar is way out there!

looks to me like he just got wood :laughing:

Dallas

teh reason I am asking is that I have a manche myself and I am trying to figure out what he/she is running there.

I see no front leaves, no front coils, and no front coilovers....what is holding that thing up there (or am I just blind?)


and for teh rear is he using chebby springs? that looks like too much lift for a basic SOA (I know, I've been there, done that)

I want some suspension info on this thing!

Looks to me like lowered coil spring mounts, and maybe the top of the spring, just above the tire.

I don't know any of the specifics, but it belongs to a guy who works in the shop at Mepco (Salt Lake City), unfortunately I can't remember his name.

lol, you're right...I am blind.


that is a joke though...he is using FACTORY xj springs on that much lift and the tj next to him is the same height........maybe that is a basic soa rear on factory manche springs....

That's a sweet looking MJ. It appears to have coils in the front and I can see what looks like a triangulated lower link.

Okay, I'll bite why is the front hoop that high? :confused:

I'm guessing he wanted to make a stinger. and he discovered he had no more sawzall blades or cutting wheels. He sent his buddy to the hardware stoore to pick some up.
Meanwhile he got impatient and sick of waiting so he bent a 20 foot stick in half and made his stinger.

So when it endo's you can flip back rubber side down again. :D

Or better yet do the Road Warrior shtick and tie you friends to the front hoop to scare the CHP.:p

so he can walk under it to grab the winch and not bonk his head?

time for a top 10 list of reasons to make this soooo tall ;)

that guy fawked up, he forgot to triangulate :flipoff2:

Lets put a hoop on it and play some basketball!
Put noose on it and do some lynching!

Now just add a pulley at the peak and a sling on the front, run the winch through the pulley, and you got a wrecker that runs backward!

IF you really want to know about the comanche call mepco and ask...its one of their techs comanche...as for the stinger...just had another discusion about that thing on an email list and I think the final descision was that it was for flying his :rainbow: flags...:D...pride I tell ya!!!

I used to have a bar just like that



































when I was 11 and it was on the back of my "banana seat"!:D

I think it would suck to drive with that thing on there.


It would block your view.

that thing looks familiar, i dont remember if i saw it around here at carnegie or hollister or if i saw it when i went to cal rocs in reno. either its the same one(before the tube work) or another copied paintjob. where was that pic taken?

that pic was taken at the SLC Jeep Show back in March...he has Tera 60s F&R I believe and I *think* he has coils up front a leafs in the rear...didn't pay much attention to it since I dont like the Mepco guys at all...:D:D:D

I think he must have some killer ft brakes on there and the bar is to keep it from doing the turtle, Kind of like a backwards wheelie bar!!! :shaking: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
wait, wait....maybe it's for the wylie coyote style slingshot!!!!!!:eek:
