Let's see your LJ's!

[legov]

Nice LJ's everyone!

I'll post some from abroad. That`s may LJ (and a friend's Defender) on our weeklong trip through Romania, Eastern Europe, in early 2015. She's pretty well travelled for an LJ having benn across Europe and the US. Now I have her back in SoCal exploring the southwest. I'm running a 3in Lift, 285/75R16s, some armor and an 8k lbs Winch. Thinking about adding a roofrack next. Those Gobis look nice!

What size tires are u running?

Sorry for the late reply. I'm running 35s or the metric equivalent 315/75-16s

I am considering an OME lift for my LJ, anyone out there have this lift and care to share their opinion?

 

[Beowulf]

I'm am running OME and it has been great. I went with ZJ springs up front and LJ springs in the rear. Running the newer nitro charger shocks all around. Additionally, I have the Nth shock shifters. Next I'll do the Rokmen spring relocaters.

Nice LJ!
I see you are running Black Magic brakes, do you feel they are worth the money?
I need to do something with mine to improve the stopping and am seriously considering ordering those. I can't buy them locally so I need to order online. I just don't want to get them and then find out they don't perform as well as they say on other sites.

With the Black Magic brakes, I'm still looking to improve my braking. I have the rooters and pads and I really didn't see a difference when I put them on. I like the pads, they do last.

I've read on other forums that you can use a Dodge Durango brake booster on TJ/LJ. That's gotta improve the braking.

Thanks for your honesty. I will research the Durango idea.
Edit: It looks like the Durango option is for the XJ not having much luck looking for TJ or LJ's.
I did stumble on this http://www.vancopbs.com/ it's a big brake kit, a bit pricy but should let me sleep at night.
Sorry everybody I don't mean to hijack the thread.

Just joined the other day and already my wallet hurts. So many ideas and information on here that I don't know which way to go. This is my DD. Typically load it up for weekend camping trips.

How do you like the Grabbers? They look super cool but I have heard they wear faster than others.

 

[jeepster1407]

There ok. I'd like something a little more aggressive and less weight than them but they seem to ride good and wear good. I got them second hand with very low miles but they've held up fine.

The factory booster is plenty strong enough, the problem comes from the tiny single piston calipers, and small surface area.

Looks like this thread needs to be revived
