Any updates? A little internet peer pressure for ya: V3.0 well on its way! May or may not start a thread, haven't decided quite yet.

Plug is looking good! I don't have the patience to do bodywork......... Too bad I missed you this weekend. I picked up the top to start on Jeepagon 3.0. I just have to clear the que of projects a bit to get started on it!

Mods sure do snowball out of control fast don't they? What ratio are you running in the axles? Gearing really helps overcome a lack of power. Which is a problem my rig has with how its outfitted........I am gonna be putting it on a diet this year!

You planning on pulling more than one top off of your mold? More than 2 Jeepagons? PS shot you a PM

8600 lbs empty with the trailer in tow? That's asking a lot of that poor minivan engine!

Your fiberglass work looks great! Keep up the good work, I cant wait to see what you come up with for the canvas!

I chopped a giant hole in the roof of my last rig installing a high top (4x4 van). I think it was like a 4 foot by 9 foot hole but that was all body-on-frame construction. I know it might ruffle a few feathers: I will be chopping most of the roof out, but not planning on doing a full blown...

Been watching from the sidelines for awhile now, I love the build you have going on! So much so that it inspired me to get back into a Cherokee again. I found a fiberglass top online that I could use to make a Jeepagon 3.0............just gotta get the nerve to chop into a clean XJ!

Ps thanks for posting that willys/ teardrop combo! Really cool piece of history

If your trailer ball is popping out YOU are 100% to blame. Either it's user error (wrong ball, worn out/ not adjusted, overloaded, etc etc) or you cheaped out and bought cheap junk........... For you yes it's totally worth it! But most users aren't towing the rubicon, most of us never wheel :(

It may be an unpopular opinion......a 360 degree, multi axis coupler is overrated! You would be supprised how far some 2inch couplers can articulate. Stamped steel units seen to flex way less than a bulldog cast hitch. I believe 360 degrees of unrestricted rotation is what leads to all the...

I had a trailer that was sub 750 lbs loaded. I had a really short tongue and like 50-75 lbs tongue weight. It towed well as fast as my jeep could go (60-65). I had a 3' extending tongue, absolutely scary at speed! But with the long tongue it was easy to back and push around the garage by hand.

RTI numbers don't mean squat! A well balanced suspension is where it's at! It might look cool on a ramp, but when it handles like a there wheeled street cleaner around town not so much!

Others have covered some really good points already. Having owned 3 Xj's and 1 WJ i thought i would throw my 0.02 into the discussion: Clean XJ's are starting to cost considerably more than a clean WJ in utah. But I still would go with an XJ anyday. XJ's have a massive parts interchangeablity...

They are called "Anti Luce" fasteners........not quite so sure why I know that!

New diesels with their high initial purchase price, borderline insane emissions controls, and more expensive fuel we have moved away from them in our fleet. We have been running 6.0 chevy gassers for the last ten or so years and besides our heavier hauling applications we are not going back. A...

Just playing the devils advocate, maybe I am just bitter I couldn't find a diesel in my price range;)

Let me preface this with I have no real world experience with the 7.3..........but here in Utah diesels are so much more spendy than a gasser! I was looking for a Duramax van (unicorn) and figured that I could buy a gasser, lift it, get new tires and build out the interior and be cheaper than a...

The rears sound like they are standard 5 blazer springs with extra leafs. Only 44" OE spring I know off the top of my head of is a Wagoneer leaf front leaf spring. Are the front spring pins offset 2.5 inches to one end of the spring?

What length are the springs from eye to eye measured along the arc of the spring? I would probably imagine they are 47" or 52".
