Everything looks good when its new and shiny, well almost everything. Lets take a look at the custom and aftermarket parts on my Jeep after 1 year and 20,000 miles of real world use.

Great overview of the project. You did mention in an earlier video that you changed the Caster on the front Dana 44 during the retube process. Maybe a little description of that idea could be helpful for the audience as to why you did that and why you choose the degree of Caster you wanted. Some of us know why that was done but likely not all know what it does or why a certain change of degrees does something to the drivability of the vehicle. Thanks for the video review.

Hey Tim, I like all of you guys' work but your XJ is really probably closest to my heart. It is very offroad capable but still street legal which is a must for me. Unfortunately street legal in my country means a lot of restrictions and many things you guys consider normal and do on daily basis are off limits here. My MOT is already expired, I've planned it for this wednesday so we'll see what they will think of my mods :) Still, I have used your XJ as bit of a guide/template in working on my Cherokee, fabricating stuff to have fun and also save money. Anyways, those rear bumb stops kind of caught my eye now. I will have a look into those, maybe make them adjustable 2 inches or so or put airbags there. Thanks for the video, Martin

Do you remember if that JK rear driveshaft is for the 07-11 or the 12-18. I love this build man. I have a vast background in custom fab but never in the 4x4 world. I bought my first XJ over the weekend. Already had my setup planned, found green machine, and it verified my vision!

Yea, me too, I think the Rough Country lift and other products I slapped on my 95, 93, and 88 YJ's are a great price and great quality, been performing for years now. I think it might be that "gear-head" mentality: "must be over-engineered or else it's not worthwhile"... but most people who do customizations to their vehicles aren't running them in the extreme.

People doesn't seem to realize the purpose of cores being returned to the part places like autozone and others. You return your core, an OEM part and they remanufacture said OEM part and sale it back to the public. With that said, sometimes reman'd parts can be better than their store brand that's new.

@bleepinjeep
@bleepinjeep 6 лет назад
I ended up selling some time ago to fund the materials to build a custom tire carrier bumper. Don't remember what happened but the money went elsewhere. I'm hoping to use a bunch of RuffStuff's bumper fab parts to finally build one this summer. I took the oem bumper off to measure some stuff.

How do they "fail"? What issue are you having and have you contacted TreadWright about it? I can't seem to kill my set.
@SprintingSheep
@SprintingSheep 6 лет назад
That's strange, I've had 2 sets of the guard dogs and I've beat the crap out of mine, and I've never had an issue with them. Only reason I replaced my last set was because the side walls were cracked from letting them sit for 2 years when the jeep was dicked.
@kylebrazell6575
@kylebrazell6575 6 лет назад
The tread is separated from the belt. I have contacted treadwrights and they are replacing them but I really don't trust them to hold up. Also there customer service is pretty poor. We the first two failed I never received any communication from them just the shipping notification and the third one has taken a month to get replaced.

I saw your pictures there. That's interesting! I feel like with my tires being slashed to the belt and running them at low PSI I certainly would have had this issue happen to me if it was a problem with their adhesion process. I haven't experienced any separation at all!
@jagray85
@jagray85 4 года назад
Question. I see it's a Ford Dana 44 with the 3 link on the passenger side. Everything is super smooth. And I want mine to come out the same way. What brackets did you use on your axle? More importantly, did you center the spring pad on the axle vs offset like the Jeep came factory? See I will be running high steer knuckles on mine so an OTK trackbar bracket In the same spot, directly In front of the spring would be epic.

With a hp 44 and 9" rear your safe to run up to 40" tires. It blows my mind you'd make the effort to make the axle swap to run re-tread 33s you can't even air down. Great build but there is so much more potential behind this jeep. I just got a hp 44 and 9" with 5.38 gears and Detroit lockers front and rear. 35 spline chromolys as well.
@stevefellers9349
@stevefellers9349 3 года назад
I like your vids, I was watching this one and you were talking about the brakes in the rear, I looked thru several comments and I did not see any yet about you having the calipers on the wrongs side.... the bleeder should be at the highest point to allow all of the air out during bleeding. I assume all is good for you and that is all that matters, if it has already been addressed please excuse my comment.

The upper passenger heim is loose because the axle rotates as it flexes. Metalcloack.com has what's called a lock-n-load that replaces the upper control arm on the passenger side. Unfortunately it won't work with your setup.

Hey Tim ! Although your rear limited slip is toasted, did it do it's job before it was worn out? Or are lockers the only way to go in the first place.
@bleepinjeep
@bleepinjeep 6 лет назад
Definitely lockers are better. It was toasted to begin with, after all these axles were pulled from a 1978 truck and I'm sure the truck was well used. It seems to work when I'm really spinning the tires hard but its basically useless for crawling.

@Garth2011
@Garth2011 5 лет назад
Tim: Not surprise the rear clutches were burned up or worn out. I noticed the condition of the gear oil draining out as you removed the pumpkin in another video and it was silvery black muck. Was really surprised you didn't service the front stub axle's and/or bearings too. Likely that will get done at some point when the front ring and pinion are replaced as they are mostly running on the "toe" side of the teeth. In the end, much saved dollars for those great front & rear housing parts no matter how worn they were.
