Update 8/12/09
I purchased a Dana 70 that is set-up for 4 link already, disc brakes, but wrong gears. So I'm currently saving up my money re-gear the 70 and 4 link my rear. current plan is to link it with TJ coils. If I raise enough $$$ I'll either go with air shocks or even better coil overs. All boils down to $$$. But...

The mods since my last update. Installed a Thu-kool radiator, lost my right head light because of this. It wasn't my intentions on doing this but I had to cut more of the grill then I wanted. The missing head light made a good spot for winch control box. Now it kinda looks like a cyborg. Also installed a ford taurus fan to keep it cool. Found out the 12" fan I thought would work wasn't enough CFM's

But I did test out the TSL's and made it up a hill I haven't been able too. Only about 20 rigs have made it up this hill. If you take out buggy's I would say about 10 trail rigs like mine have. Anyways here's the video.

Since the video I have grooved the TSL's. Have yet to try them out. My rear leafs have taken a beating. I have a broken center pin on one. all sorts of crap failing. Time to link this sucker. Anyone want to sponsor it?

Update 06/15/09 : Well I did some more selling and trading of parts to score me a set of 39" TSL's. I wanted to get a new set of TSL/SX's but this deal came along and I couldn't pass it up. So here it sits with some new meat on it.
I'm getting some good feedback from everyone and I appreciate it greatly. Keep the comments coming. It encourages me to wheel and update my profile. I know it may be a plain jane profile, but I don't have time to make a pretty profile. I'm to busying giving this rig hell. Check out my video's on Youtube. Search user name JonsYJ
OK new news!!! I entered in my first event. It was nothing real big but an annual tough truck event in the area. Well I came home with the 1st place trophy for the modified class and set the track record of 2:08.56 minutes on some damn near bald Irok's.. (about 50%). Here's video of my first run, Which I ran a 2:22min. If anyone wants to sponsor me some New Irok's or TSL's. I'd greatly appreciate it. I plan on entering a few more of these this summer and traction is needed.

Update 4/3/09. Working in making this a full hydro steering and linking the rear. So far I have the hydro ram but am looking for the ideal Orbital valve. If anyone would like to donate one shoot me a PM. Since the last update. I have fab'd up some new tube fenders. I made a high rise hood design. I didn't use a tub bender at all. Chop saw, notcher and a 110 welder. Also added some rock lights. Vision X LED's. Here's some pics and link to video. Tahuya ORV's yellow jacket hill is getting better each weekend. Watch the video's and please remember to rate my profile and the video's.

Update 1/06/2009
I guess its time for an update....I took the sway bar off because I got used to the super flexy front end and like it better. I plan on re-locating my rear shackle hangers so the leafs will work better. But I'm being lazy. Just been playing in a lot of snow. Here's some videos.

Update 10/6/08
Alrighty. Well this summer the jeep got the front end linked. Custom 3 link with panhard, 14" Radflo air shocks. That took most of the summer. Took it out on a few test runs and found a few things I needed to fix. Just and I mean just finished installing a Rock Equipment sway bar. Here's some pics of previous test runs with out the sway bar. Also included in this set is some pics of the sway bar installation.

Then this happened, ruined the day and had to head home. Didn't bring a spare set of straps. So a $6 part finished the day. But I'll be back. I have some more plans for future mods and parts should be here this week.
Still gave it hell with only front wheel drive

Update 10/30/06
Well since the last tiem I updated this I have slapped on some 36x1350x15 Irok super swampers. They work great offroad but suck major ass on the street.

UPDATE 06/16/06
Just got the Joop back from Those Guy's rod and custom. I had them build a custom 6 point cage. I'm stoked
UPDATED INFO 03/22/06
Ok ditched the snorkel, it was doomed to get ripped off with the tight trail systems up here in the NW. Also ditched the fender's and went with some custom tube fenders. I had Pat at Those Guys rod & custom build me some skeleton tube fenders. I then cut off my old fenders bolted these on and added some skin. I also molded the stock wheel well into the tube fenders. Almost looks stock.
Ok this is my jeep. Got it in feb 2003.
