Not yet and im going out of town tonight, back tomorrow. Ill get them up this weekend. Ill post them in the build thread for the Sedamn.

Yep. it was the right rear CV joint. I think it did it here: Too much droop with the new rear coils and 4th great slinging mud and water may have done it.

Hack it. I kinda want to do the same thing to the Sedamn.

Ill get up some details as soon as i can get my camera back.

Next to my garage...

I gained 5.5 inches of travel to what i already had. It could be 6.5 gained but i need to do a little cutting.

Ill get some pics up soon. But to sum it up i gained 5.5" of travel. It helped out a lot.

Cool, thanks for the feedback. Ill check it out soon. I hope its something simple. I have a spare trans but im hoping its something simple. What confuses me is there was no pop grind or anything indicating 4wd is gone. Hopefully its just the linkage or something. Ill update later. Thanks again.

Is the EA82 D/R viscousily coupeled? I took the sedamn out yesterday and after a few hours of wheeling no more 4wd. No noises to indicate damage just stoped. Any thoughts? Orion

Does anyone have a pic of all this stuffed under a car?

Any Colorado Soob owners want to go? Im heading down that way around 10:00 this Saturday. Its fun, i went last time. Im going to trailer the Sedamn cause its not registered yet. Contact me for details.

Do you think you will end up running a larger tire that an 235? I want to see video of this crawling along.

So around 138:1 crawl ratio? Thats sick.

Tree roots and mud=no traction no matter what. You need to run these. http://www.cta.a.se/twin/DSC00223.jpg or these http://www.vermontracing.com/projects/project_steve/702/ice_racing_tires/ice_tires_one/ice_racing_tire_for_sale.jpg

Is there any visiable difference between looks of the sedan and wagon spring? The spring that is currently on the sedan has no problem being fully compressed. What this coil over is built from is what i thought 2 rear wagon springs. But one is significantly lighter. I might have to change the heavier one out with the stock sedan spring. The down and up travel i bet will increase 4" at least with this new coil setup. I guess we will have to see.

Yep, i kick rump roast.

Im starting with a video and a few questions. If for some reason you cant watch the video let me know and ill type it out and upload some pics. Thanks for the help. This might turn out easier than i originally thoughts. If this work im pretty sure i know how im going to build new long travel front struts.

Today I hacked the front and rear fenders, removed the bumpers and started working on the custom rear coil overs. Here are a few pics and a video In the video i have a few questions about springs, cutting springs and spring rate. Please post your thoughts and comments on building the coill over shock.

Thanks for the positive feedback. After I first saw pics of lifted sedans I knew that was the next project. Bill is right also; IT IS COOL cause its MINE! And wheeling in the winter with a open cabin sucks. But its hella fun in the summer. Also my garage isn’t built yet so an open cabin in a rain storm is a mess. Brian: Do you ever read your emails before you post? You must have a lot of hate built up or something. It’s a “build thread” not a “look at my finished sedan thread” What do you know about me wasting my potential….that’s what I thought. That’s what erks me about forums, you get people on here who have issues with themselves and take it out on others for no reason. And we all know what opinions are like…..

For the paint ive decided on Gun metal metallic grey from the old trim lines up. Then hurculiner from there down.

Jeep Wagoneer.

You can see in the pics the color. If you want them and pay for shipping ill ship them. Do need for a jack? The 6 lug isnt that bad, just time consuming. There are plenty of instructions out there.

Im waiting for the engine swap before i buy tires. That way i can see what my crawl ratio will be which will influence my tire size.

That was a subie.
