We are giving away a IRO lift kit for your Jeep (wj, zj, xj, jk, jt) once we reach 15k subscribers!!!
We love to adventure anywhere and everywhere! My name is Derrick, and I am currently building my 2003 Jeep WJ that I picked up about 6 months ago. So far we have our 6.5" Iron Rock Offroad long arm lift and 35's on. As well as taking you on all of our adventures, I will be filming in-depth walk arounds of the best local rigs. Welcome to the channel! Insta: @OverlandingOzarks
i have the ac2a as well as a ac180. I purchased the smaller unit out of convenience to run my BougeRV 30 quart 12 volt fridge. I use grid power to bring the fridge down to my needed temperature and then use the ac2a to maintain it, it lasts 12 hours. I have a 200 watt BougeRV Arch panel on my truck cap, so theoretically, it will run the fridge indefinitely as long as you have sun shine day times hours.
Those are closed knuckle axles I couldn't see the transfer case that well but I believe that's the mp24 that's your weak link I've got a couple m24s and they gave me problems because once the rear bearing goes on the rear of the transfer case it has to be machine to be fixed so I swapped out to a MP 205 transfer case I got the same truck I got two of them I got a 1971 Ford f250 with a 460 out of a1968 Lincoln Continental and 409 axle gears I also have a 1968 highboy with the 360 with married transfer case I love both the trucks do you have the original 4-speed transmission? In what year diesel engine is that
Great video, hope you see some more front end IFS rear axle in your comings and goings to prove to you they are not left behind VS front and rear solid axle
This is what I've noticed in my 61 years here on Earth. Years ago, you could buy a Jeep off the Kaiser / AMC showroom floor and take it 4-wheeling without doing any mods. Once Chrysler got a hold of Jeep, they started making them cheaper, but you could still do some rough driving with them (with slight mods, of course). When Daimler-Chrysler made them, flimsy and cheap was the way they went. You were lucky if you didn't break something in the suspension driving over a pothole in your favorite mall's parking lot. If you wanted to do anything remotely resembling 4-wheeling, you had to pretty much custom the entire vehicle. Today, under FCA, all Jeeps are complete garbage and no amount of work will make them any better. Jeep should have died in the early 90's, but somehow it held on. Now, it's 2024. Pull the plug FCA. Let Jeep finally die before it becomes an even bigger embarrassment than it already is.
Looking how hard it was to lower the control arm for 2", I would think there is no room to push the ball joint on for 4".The lower ball joint would be vertical angle, am I wrong?
With regard to the EVAP system, in 2001 the canister/pump and other associated equipment was actually in the engine bay, tucked in behind the brake booster. Which eliminates the canister from behind the tire and eliminates one of the lines running the full length of the vehicle. Ive bought the the entire system at local salvage in my area for less than 40$. Its tedious, but a rock solid solution you only have to do once. Great build my friend!!
Coming from a Toyota guy, these Jeeps and the XJ are my favorite ones, even tho my buddies are always broken down on the trail & idk if people just dont maintain them right? But thats why i stay away from Jeeps my 4runner has 547k miles and still runs strong. Compare to my buddy's Jeeps with under 200k miles always braking down lol but these rigs are badass!
