autumnwalker Posted November 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2012 That's what I just put on mine lol Right on! So far they are an improvement over what I had... they were long past their useful life. I really need to clean my windshield though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4x4Mckay Posted November 5, 2012 Report Share Posted November 5, 2012 So today coming through sambro way to go home, came upon the road block.. Talking to the cop he goes "well I don't know if there is any trails around here to get around, but that thing loooks like it could make it". ... When infact there was an old trail, so went to it. Part way in realized it was way to grown in to fit through, so turned around... And this is what became of the tires ! 2 minutes from home, had to drive 2 33's allllllll the way around the loop, (30 min drive, only fit 2 in the cav). Drove it home with 31's on the front and 33's on the rear, again around the loop!!!! 33's back on it now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
97 cherokee Posted November 5, 2012 Report Share Posted November 5, 2012 Didn't like those tires anyway! Lesson learned don't stuff a jeep through a grown in old atv trail guessing I hooked a stump or small cut off tree somewheres got a nice hole in the sidewall of each OOPS!

You would have been f***ed if you didn't. You just have to find a couple of used 31s, if you still want to DD the smaller tires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRUXterra Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 Replaced both front spring thanks to Eibach warranty. It's amazing how much better the new ones ride compared to the old. Even though they were only 3 years old & ~30k kms), the new ride is much smoother and I gained another 1/2" to the front fender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

97 cherokee Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 Not sure if I want to use it as a tow point or not I would like to remove the hitch and build one into the bumper but i don't know how much I would trust it I was just going to put the weld on d rings just so there's something on it so its less boring and for light pulls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastcoastcam Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 You should run some pieces along the sides toward your rear wheels to give a finished look to where you trimmed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
97 cherokee Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 Yeah I might end up doing that too but not sure yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastcoastcam Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 I would do it, but you could always add on to it later, if you are wanting to install it on sooner than later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastcoastcam Posted November 11, 2012 Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 Repaired my hardtop yesterday, and prepped it to paint. Then today I sprayed it with bedliner, and ran out before done. Going to need 2 more rattle cans at least to finish it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
