She's Gone...

[spressomon]

Sam's getting the rig in a couple weeks while I'm backpacking...looking forward to it...however it'll surely take me awhile to tune the shocks to my liking (not looking forward to that part). I was concerned about overall durability on the Foxes but he assured me they are tough and relatively maintenance free...

Bet I can guess who's shocks those were. Now that you have gotten rid of your VERY nice jeep, good luck on the hunt for the 100. Did you sell it to someone local or did it leave town?

Now maybe we can get you and Redline to hook up with the rest of us and do some Nevada traveling. (Of course while I am typing this, I am without a vehicle:safari-rig: )

We (Redline) and I were discussing this very topic. I'd love to go on a run. at least there is still the HJ45. The rig went to Cali, but he is supposedly a very active rock crawler. Look for it on the 'Con and Johnson Valley.

Durability of the Foxes won't be the issue. They (Fox) makes a great product. I wish I would have had Fox's or King's on the Unlimited.


Take great notes on tuning and such...I'll be following your lead on the shock choice eventually. I'm just waiting for you to dial them in.

Good deal.

We will have to see what we can come up with.

Jereme you are welcome to take the 4Runner if you want. It is prepped and parked just down the street from you.

Thanks Harry. That's very generous of you.

Hey

You know, I think if AEV could come up with a brute style bed to modify the 4 door wrangler, they would have a real winner. Especially if they made into a "reasonably priced" turn-key models that was sold through existing Jeep dealers. Equip them with 35's, make an option with available hemi, and rubicon version.....They would lose their minds with orders for them.

You need something like this!

I'll be touring the AEV facility in about 7 weeks. I have to see one of these up close and personal. Has anyone seen a build thread for a Brute on the net?

Yes, here is one:

I have never coveted a non-sports car as much as I have the Brute. I also love that the pic appeared to be in Moab. If I didn't wheel my rig as hard as I do, I'd consider doing one. I just couldn't see flopping a Brute and not wanting to kill myself afterwards.

As to the JK Unlimited, if you need more doors, just get a Cherokee.

You parted with your LJ easier than I thought you might... but you used it well while you had it and now its time for a change (of life).

I was a little concerned after selling my LJ, and still think its a really nice Jeep when I see Mike driving it. But when I'm driving the (Toyota) Mall Crawler I'm very comfortable and happy

Going all the way back to the beginning, why race an Early Bronco? Into the whiplash that short WB offers?

Least anyone think I'm anti-EB search this user name on Broncofix.

This wasn't slated to be a normal early Bronco.
