I checked Quadvan's site...no info about the Transit (unless I'm missing something obvious). One of the issues I've had with Quigely is their use of Quigely mfr'd parts. I spoke with one of their reps at Expo in Flag, and he said something about the hub assemblies being mfr'd by Quigley - I can...

It seems you and my wife were communicating via some sort of weird telepathy today......on the way to work this morning, the wife was thinking the EB51 is not a good idea, but suggested the 4-captains chair layout instead. She was concerned about being able to reach the kids if necessary to...

Well - the time has finally come - it is time to move on from my beloved Jeep JKU Rubicon...there I said it. Our family is growing and our needs are changing. We are 4 - my wife and I, a 9 mo, and a 90# St Bernard mix. We are planning on adding 2 more - another kid and another big dog. The...

I've been all over the US on various work and business trips...and my home bbq, the neighbors bbq, and just about anyone that does it 'right' - will produce better BBQ than from a restaurant. I was pretty suprised at the instances of dry overcooked meats at the famous bbq places in Chicago, St...

Thought I would update the thread a bit with some info. I have used C no-name AT tire rated 31 x 10.50 tire and passenger car tires of slightly similar size. I ran 18# in the 31's and 20# in the passenger car tires. The passenger car tires ride a great deal more smoothly with less bounce both...

Off trail behavior gets these places closed for all. via pyramid energy waves.

Looks like there is a potential for lots of wasted space from the boat sides/beveled portion. Looks neat and is innovative, but I would likely pass on this design as all the crates, boxes, bags, etc would have a tendency to roll into the middle...and especially the loss of a vertical surface as...

Congrats on the jeep...you will enjoy it. ...one thing about the jeep fourms - make sure you understand who is posting (JKU vs JK). Different animals when it comes to capability & handling...Example: I was following a stock 2door Rubicon on a trail. My tires were frequently full stuff & rubbed...

It has been sometime since you first posted - I'm hoping your best friend is still with you. I cannot express my sympathies enough for your situation. It actually brought a tear - I lost my mother to an incurable cancer when she was in her early 60's (similar to super ford). Just as she was...

Some tests... I experimented with my light weight trailer (around 400#). Swapped 500# springs (1000# total) Ran the tires that came on it - set of noname 225/75r15 passenger car tires(1700# rating). Pressure around 20#. Moderate bouncing, but much less than when it has the rusted...

True - I didn't know if the thing would bounce around more/less with the heavier tire. Driving it home with the current tires 225/75/15@ 20PSI, it bounced all over the place. Scared the crap out of the people in the lanes next to me. First thing I did was swap out the existing springs from...

Quick Question: Should I look for light weight tires or does it matter? Not sure they have to match size/weight/tread pattern of my jeep as carrying a spare for each is no big deal. This thing loaded will likley be less than 1000lbs (its barely over 350# now). Suspension is currently leaf...

tlbeach, Where did you get this from? The dealer list appears to be RV guys (which is fine), but I'd rather support Expo/Jeep community. I'm headed this route with the jscherb tire carrier + Titan Fuel Tank...

Any Photos? I am in a similar boat as the OP...I'm looking for decent springs for my jeep since it serves so many purposes. Use it like a pickup, kid mobile, overlander, and road tripper. Progressive seems ideal comprimise ... However, I have to agree with Geoff, I'm not thrilled with the...

Keep it Simple...Keep yourself Happy :iagree: Having gone down the mod path on various vehicles, I have come to learn the stock/close to stock systems are usually the most robust (there are exceptions, but...). If your intended use is hard core wheelin', go with 35s and a decent >2.5"...

Clutch... Nice jeep! Really like the mod list. How do you like the clutch? What prompted you to swap out the OEM clutch? Mine clutch is getting cranky and the bearing has been loud for quite a while Also, what size tires....(edit - n/m saw the size.) Looks great! GLWS

Would really like to see a pic of the battery mounted up!
