    Home Made Jumping Jack Style????

    I too am in the same design phase... I like the J.J. platforms & the way they deploy. Hopefully I can mimic that & then find an appropiate sized tent... Mine will be off a truckbed trailer, if I ever get my ******** in gear. Good luck... Curt

    I see it as a good platform to build to ones liking... While not small by any means, many use a 3500# axle for allot of builds... Good Luck Curt

    Rebuilding an XJ 4.0--in Hemi Orange!

    While it could be cleaner with A/N fittings and such it's worked for...... 10 years... I usually put a small (foot sq.) piece of foil under it to catch the residual oil once the filter is removed, plus a little will spill when I tip it slightly to maneuver it out. It's tight, but doable. Oil...
