i have play in mine as well. Just have not uploaded video yet. I'll try to remember to do it tonight. it's not a left - to - right play, but a rotating front - to - rear play

Here's the high level science guys, there are 2 things to consider that impact fuel being burned. The first is engine RPM, and at highway speeds engine RPM is low (i'm calling 2650 and below low) which means torque and HP at that RPM are pretty low. (now the caveat to this is the torque curve on...

for those interested I've been jumping my JT since I got it. I purchased the Sport model (not even the S trim) so I have manual doors and windows, along with a 6 speed manual transmission. Upon delivery i installed the mopar lift kit and started to test the capabilities right away. The first...

@Insert_Clever_Name_Here what lift kit from evo did you install? my JT has some pretty random bump steer issues going on and I'm using Synergy's 3.5in lift front springs + Fox DSC's. For the track bar I used rustys off road, which I thought might be the problem since the angles are not 100%...

what RPM are you at when traveling at 77mph in 8th gear?

I have a MT with 35's, and went from 3.73 to 4.56. This is a hell of a lot better both off road and on the highway. I should have done 4.88's to be honest as I'd have a little more pep in the desert, but I'm still happy with the 4.56 Here is my approach to this. I looked at what tire/gear ratio...

yup, it's awesome!

anyone have good videos of ripping through the desert with this lift? I'm particularly interested in the rear cradle upgrade. I'm already running Fox 2.5 DSC's with 11in of wheel travel front, and 12 in the rear. I've coupled that with their IFP Bump stops on all 4 corners. next up is improving...

I'm always for sharing to help improve things overall!

i just regeard from 3.73 to 4.56 to be as close to the max tow ratio as possible with 35in KO2's and it is waaayyyyyy better. Now I also have the 6 speed manual so that could be part of it as there's a huge step between 1st and 2nd. the 35's with 3.73 in the desert is a bit of a dog, now with...

Liquid, with pressurized nitrogen at 250

yup! thats in Kern at about 35 mph, i didnt get a video in Barstow, but I'll be back there in October and will definitely be taking videos. the photo below you can see how one bump stop had the sheet metal frame completely smashed in vs the other with a taller frame. the other photo is after...

Did you regear for the 38's? I just regeared to 4.56 and what a difference over the 3.73. I'm only running 35's and have the 6 speed trans. I'll be in Barstow on 10/18, i found a sweet jump there I hit at 70mph, totally trashed my stock rear bump stop so now I have Fox's IFP bump stop and will...

I'll keep it until the end, one of the last ICE trucks with a manual that will be supercharged. My mods are based on jeepspeed and ultra4 class. I live in SoCal and romp in the desert, a lot, so I am building my truck to have 12in wheel travel with a gearing that matches the ratio of max tow...

ShadowsPapa is spot on with regard to keeping things loose until you have all 4 wheels back on the ground for final torquing. This is absolutely important because of one additional item, almost all links (track, control arms, etc) are torqued between 2 pieces of sheet metal, and as you torque...

35's and the mopar lift work fine for jumps, this is at 35mph, I hit a much larger one in barstow at 70mph, only rear fenders popped off. I did just purchase fox 2.5 DSC's + 1in taller springs from Synergy since i'm out in the desert a lot, jumping a lot, and beating the shit out of my cheap...

what is the part number for your front Fox DSC's? i just ordered the -051 which should work for the 3in springs i ordered, but also curious if you can actually bottom out the piston on the compression side of travel, or if the spring/bump stops prevent that.

this was me in Kern river at about 35mph, I jumped easily 2.5 ft. in barstow at about 60-65mph, my truck is the sport (not even sport s) with the rubicon lift from factory (warranty included) and 35in KO2's

anyone know what size fox shocks were used?

Hey community, anyone have experience racing the 2700 JeepSpeed class, King of Hammers 4600 class, or Baja 1000? Fox just released their 2.5 DSC's and 3.0 DSC's and I'm trying to figure out which to get. (the 3.0's are not allowed in the 2700 or 4600 since they are bypass, but I might still get...
