Hey just like my original post with the box on bumper, zero, nada, nothing, front and rear are exactly the same measured to the same spot on fender, still the same and that is after towing up some big hills and trailering on bumpy stone roads. Now if my Factor 55 flatlink would ever ship, I...
Oh yeah, hats off to Aqcjeepglad, as he also did an amazing job, like Amish Mike , Divided_wood ,
Mr. COB and others before me, that kept me on track, sort of pioneers, cutting into your Jeep not sure if it is going to work out is scary. Each of us did it different but results are all very...
Don’t think I’ve any drop but I did not measure, finished early in the morning and hooked up the camper and will be heading home tomorrow, measurement to bottom of Mojave fender lip was 41”, I’ll check.
Sorry Onesicpup, Ona they don’t show it in their website but Northridge4X4 has it in stock on...
Only way to put a winch on without out cutting top of plastic bumper is to go with the basic old school designs without the decorative designed housings, and also relocate the control box, Mojave has a high hood so mine fit but need hood open to plug in until I put a remote connection in, also...
Finally, pushed through today enough to tow the camper tomorrow! Very tired of working on it, there are always the little things that make you go back and figure it out different, like the 1/4” spacers I put between the frame and the winch plate for more room, well with the 1/4” winch plate...
WelI finally did it, put something on the Jeep that does nothing to support it’s mission or do anything ………but, but…
….but look bitchin! It even has sparkles in the plastic like the Mojave dash does! 80th anniversary badges, but mine is a 2021, so also in 80th year!….Jack
The Wrangler 392 hood which is the same as the Mojave hood has a Hydro-Glide system which provides cold air direct to air cleaner and has openings directing air directly towards the rear on both sides of engine, with rubber flaps that hang down and shut off vents when not moving and allow...
I drive 3.5 hours to Delaware , then drive on the beach for the weekend and and then drive part way home before filling up, start your day with a full tank. I guess the question is are you just going to be driving up and down the beach the whole time, or stopping to chill or fish? I fish, the...
I have lived with death wobble on my company F-250, the steering wheel shakes violently back and forth, people next to me on interstate would move away even onto the shoulder as I was slowing down, hitting the brakes made it more violent. Sway of the trailer could start the truck swaying but...
We’ll it looks like I didn’t get much done the 95 degree heat doesn’t help or friends and family stopping by.
The news is it wil work! I always take the difficult route, putting it on with a front receiver took some effort, the heavier side brackets limited my spacer I could use, but I trimmed...
Next Venture makes an awesome set of skids, probably the best out there, they also protect the U joint and have a ramp design the glides the rock past the u joint, I idn't say they were cheap , but they are really neat.., work with Moto built and other some covers and have a spacer to run the...
More pics, planning on using 1.5” steel round stock to support hauser. Winch has a narrow drum so hauser has a very narrow slot. Very trial run of putting bumper over the temporary frame bolts and winch shows, yup gonna work!….I hope!…..jack
Here we go! It will work, this weekend should have it mounted, the LOD winch plate had a interference with the Curt hitch mount, required flipping the carriage bolt around retightening, and grinding the head of carriage bolt a tiny bit, putting the winch plate on required cutting a thin small...
Oh yes ,of the ones you are considering go with the 261BHXL you can probably end up at 6000 lbs. and 625 hitch weight if you run with empty tanks mostly and at most water in fresh tank. When towing every pound matters. Damn you are looking at 29-32 foot campers for the two or three of ya….Jack...
I would look light as you can, you are pushing the limits with what you have, you have to also add your passenger and even the weight distributing hitch to your load, those are pretty big with large tanks, I was very anal trying to stay at 3000 lbs, with a walk around queen bed and rear dinette...
