    New wheels for the Jeep.

    What tires and lift are you going to have? I don't know for sure but I would think shifting the tires outward 1.5" would cause stock tires to hit the pinch weld or the front of the wheel wells if you're not lifted. Lifted with that style rim and 30.5" tires I had to trim a ton off the bumper...

    What should I ask for it?

    Heck I am a Liberty enthusiast and I don't know what a freedom edition is. Clue me in.

    "WesWay" Lift

    I'll have them out at lunch today, and it's 2-3 day delivery from USPS. Can't wait to see the write up. Just thought about something. If you are thinking you'll want to do a Frankenlift someday, I'd get the 1/4" spacer plates. They should give around 1/2" lift. The 3/8" spacers are too...

    "WesWay" Lift

    Actually, I don't think I do have a vendors account :rolleyes: What are they, and how do I get one. Also, can I run a banner like some of the other places? How does one go about getting that all going?

    "WesWay" Lift

    The plans were from LTT, which was based on a template tom made for him. LTT deserves a little credit though, the cad file would have taken a little work to make from a tracing. I was having problems accurately representing the template you made me in cad, so I asked him for his cad file and...

    "WesWay" Lift

    This is a good idea for those that are too impatient or money hungry to buy a full lift. All stuff you can use later for your full lift, and none of it should hurt your other parts. They definitely can make their own, if they are inclined. And X2 on the alignment. But I can't believe I...

    Are JBA a-arms necessary for alignment ??

    Even if you have nowhere near you that does lifetime alignment, I'd still do one ASAP after the lift and one 4-6 weeks later. I did that and both times I was waaay out of alignment. After the second one they were looking at me like "what did you do???"

    Infant Child Seat Size...parents experience needed!

    Ah the good old days where accidents meant your kids became bullets.... Until I was about 10, my brother and I rode in the "way-back" of my parents 1976 LTD station wagon. Pillows and sleeping bags were our safety equipment!

    Infant Child Seat Size...parents experience needed!

    Yes it is true everyone recommends middle seat for the safest spot, and they recommend rear facing for as long as possible. I've even seen seats that rear face until like 45 lbs!!! The problem is, in the real world, sometimes these just aren't feasible. Getting little arms into the straps...

    Infant Child Seat Size...parents experience needed!

    I used the standard, rear-facing, permanent-base removable carrier Graco for my kids when they were babies. My wife had to be scooted up about half way. Once we had our second kid, my 2 year old was in a forward facing car seat that freed up a lot of room. She could fit behind me, and the new...

    Ohio folks..Could Use A Little Help?

    Skyline is quite nasty...is that anything like Goldstar? I normally get armour for making chili dogs and it disappeared about 2 months ago from the shelves. I tried a can of skyline and O-M-G did it suck...think chili + ketchup + tomato juice...

    okay is this normal

    Let me get this straight, are you saying it decreased from 70 to 35 in just a few seconds? Yeah totally not normal. Brakes, bearings, any of that would hurt your milage. I still feel like I have a brake problem. Mine decreases about 1 mph per second when I let off. Easily 5x faster decel...

    Looking for a cheaper synthetic regimen.

    mobil 1 filter is $10-14 usually, fyi. Recently I stocked up on mobil 1 and mobil 1 filters for $28 per 5 qts + filter. Got 3 changes worth and ran them out of 5w30....was at advance or autozone, i forget which.

    which diff. Cover would you go for?

    No fill plug :p wouldn't that be a trick. Drain plug would've been nice though. I still like mine.

    Would you want an aftermarket rear bumper WITHOUT a heavy tire carrier?

    I have 4" backspacing too. Mine would be a line to line fit with the back of the bumper. I can probably make about 1/4" clearance for a 4" backspaced 245/75 R16, then require a shim, washers behind the mount, something to get fatter 4" backspaced tires on... I'll keep working on...

    Would you want an aftermarket rear bumper WITHOUT a heavy tire carrier?

    The problem is two cans don't fit back there very neatly, unless you turn them on edge, in which case they will be the point of first contact. It could easily be done though, spinning them sideways and having two. I understand your feelings but that is a DEEP bumper considering some folks are...

    KJ owner gets the "Jeep wave"!

    Personally I think the Liberty "Crowd" (being enthusiasts, not grandmas who make up 90% of the liberty ownership) is pretty awesome. A bunch of people that love their jeeps, working on them, making them better and more unique, enjoying the outdoors in them. Yeah, I can see how horrible that...
