    Thanks all....it sure feels better having "Man Tires" under you.....:smokin: Got some rubbing issues right now, I'll have to either put the clevis lift back in, or do a little more front bumper / wheel well trimming.... Not so bad going forward, it's when I back up with the wheels in full...

    I will be selling my KJ

    No, in '05 when the flat hood Renny came out, Jeep watered down the Renagade package into an appearance package, mine came without the roof lights or skid plates, and I need a complete set.....(of skid plates) As for HJ, he's a sick, twisted evil man that has sex with barn animals, you surely...

    LRR tires such as Mich Latitude Tour or General Grabber HTS?

    I have the General Grabber HTS in 235/70-16 on my '05 Renegade, they're a good general purpose tire, ride nice, and showing very little signs of wear with 10,000 miles on them. I would say they are a very good road tire, but have their limitations off road, they work well in beach sand, limited...

    2010 Beach driving season opens....

    No daily permits around here.... Ocean City is annual from Sept. 15th to May 15th, cost is $125.00 and there's a very long waiting list since they are limited to 250. Corson's Inlet State Park is $50.00 annually from Jan 1st to Dec. 31st, but like the rest of Ocean City, the beach is closed...

    Exhaust problem, need help

    If I recall when I connected my old set up with the 2.25" Thrush Turbo, 18" was the length needed. With the 2.5" welded Thrush it's moved forward about 6 to 8 inches, and the distance to the tail pipe...(had I used it)...would of increased a little. Just get a 24" length of 2.5" straight pipe...

    Exhaust problem, need help

    I retract my previous statement, and conclude that going to 2.5" is indeed an improvement. Not that just going from 2.25" stock to 2.25" high flow wasn't an improvement, because it was, but reading and digesting the opinions in this thread got me thinking about the increased flow of cutting out...

    Exhaust problem, need help

    Sorry Troy but I gotta disagree on that one.... The exhaust on the KJ chokes down to 2.25" at the stock muffler, and comes out at the same size before expanding back up to 2.5". I installed a Thrush Hush Turbo muffler on mine, both ends are 2.25". You have to cut the old muffler off tight to...

    265/75-16 on a 2.5" lift....?

    My original plan was to go with 265/70-16's, they would run about the same diameter as the 245/75, but wider, and since most of my off road driving is on the beach....wider is better.... But I really like the Goodyear Duratrac tire, only problem is they don't make a 265/70-16, so I'll have to...

    265/75-16 on a 2.5" lift....?

    Thanks Chase, I do have my front bumper trimmed up fairly tight, and my pinch welds are already pounded, I was thinking that if I added the clevis lift I might be able to get away with the 265's, but I wasn't even considering the mileage issue.... I'll probably stick to the original plan and...

    265/75-16 on a 2.5" lift....?

    I'm getting ready to pull the hook on a new set of Goodyear Duratrac's, but can't decide if I should just stick to 245/75-16's recommended by the manufacturer of my 2.5" lift, or if I could push it and go with 265/75-16... Right now I'm just sitting on the lift, but I do have the ability to...

    4H and tight turning

    You do not need to use 4WD in the rain, you have more than enough solid tire to road contact without engaging the transfer case, and if you are loosing traction, then you're just driving too fast for the conditions.... It's no different than turning the wheels on dry solid ground, and it's...

    Jeep Pickup Truck Coming for 2012

    I've got my fingers crossed..... That they actually build it as a serious pickup with real world off road capabilities, and not water it down so it appeals to the mall crawler / soccer mom crowd.... That it comes standard with heavy solid axles front & rear, properly sized mud-terrain...

    Aluminum wheel adapters/spacers

    I purchased a set off eBay from Racing Garage, 1.5" aluminum with grade #8 studs & lugs, they've been on my Liberty for a couple months now without any issues. Haven't had them off road much other than a couple runs on groomed trails and the beach, but I've nailed a few hard potholes, and none...
