Scott in Bellingham

I got my first car back from Rollie. came without a Moter so in drops the EJ 2.2 going in almost there in place plans are to made a decent trail rig out of #1 , after the moters up and runnin reds going on a diet, insides will be gutted , dash, carpet all extra weight is going away , rear section bobbed 1 foot , run gutted safari doors , right now it has a 6" lift , will bring it up to 8" and install a nissan transfercase,

till 6:00 your welcome to use the shop,its my birthday:banana:

thank you

Im with this one the vacume out the ash

Im not against a carberator, even 2

Thank You thats good to know, Ive never seen a 4.44 , sounds like a early one would be a direct bolt in where a a later one would not Im not against using the later style even the later style axles if its the stronger choice, might have to fab up some custom trailing arms and utilize the newer style axle and hubs , might get away from the week stub axles on the older cars

ok Ive read all the jokes about how this engine is helplessly flawed with siamesed ports and all , but I would like to know what can be done to get more, even if its a little, lowend torque out of the EA82 engine, I have a 87 SPFI EA82 which I offroad and without low gears it needs some more lowend grunt, also I am aware that a EJ is more superior so lets not go there Thank You SJR

now thats what I want to hear !!! lets start makin plans!!! Dylan we need to fix your car, add weber, weld up the diff , maybe some bumpers :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:

what model EA81 or EA82, we can provide you with stock geometry if thats what you want

putting rollies car together tonight will be installing the 6" lift on the rear , whana help?

Im interested in running 4.44s on my wheeler with a t-case , do we have a complete list on which cars had them, also in a EA82 car what axles would you run, are all the stubs the same or are there differences ,

thats the hill, in the video I bypassed that one, went around the left side of that stump

I knew I had a winch:banana: :banana: :banana:

the newer legacy cars have a much stronger rear axle setup I know its not a bolt in would take some refit but that might be a option

I just sent a lift kit to Norway took 1 week for shipping with UPS

now thats a list to top, tools we used Big Hammer winch shovel axe 3/8 , 1/2 sockets and end wrenches floor jack hi-lift jack shims winch block (pulley) tree strap shackles 2 pull straps lug wrech air compressor tire plugs come-a-long a big thank you to Karl with the Jeep this guy had all the equiptment , it was a Awesome day, the weather was perfect, new to build a radius rod that wont bend, maybe one that is spring loaded
