Check out profender bumps too. They were cheap (when I bought them) and work great

The only negative to air bumps is you need a nitrogen setup to tune them. Nick has a setup for his oris. So it's not like we don't know people who have one. But still.

Wow Tom. You have a tiny little driveshaft.

Wow Tom. You have a tiny little driveshaft.

Shortest I've seen

[ridgerunner97]

That is one of the shortest driveshafts i've ever seen in ANY application. Congratulations Tom on the shortest driveshaft ever, may spicer bless it and us not have it explode in a giant puff of awesomeness and ruin our day of wheeling on the first trip out LOL

How does a stretched CJ5 have such a short shaft?

I never really payed attention but I am now... is it just the difference in pinion length for your new rear axle?

[justin'sbig7]

Well, I got the front fenders all done. I'll be the first to admitt that I'm not a huge fan of how all of this turned out but I'm not changing anything. I used a piece of angle and cut relief cuts to make the bend. Then I skinned it with .090 aluminum sheet. I do love the look on rivets in aluminum so that's where that came from.

Think I'll be street legal? he he







I'll add a top bar to complete the grill hoop some point later on.

I am diggin the way you did the fenders, small and tasteful and have an industrial steampunky mad max quality to them :thumbs:

I think the driveshaft on my 5 was 23.5 or 25.5. I'll see if I can find a picture of it. Even though I had a little shaft I still had lots of fun with it. My little shaft was easy to put in and out by myself. Heck, I could even hold it with one hand. My little shaft took a beating. I even broke off a pinion of an amc 20 and the shaft was fine. My girlfriend thought the ride was nicer with the shorter shaft. Not as many vibrations. Mine was a cut down XJ shaft. That's all the shaft jokes I got, but they're all true. I have a big penis.

[ridgerunner97]

hahahahahaha thats priceless!

[highlandercj-7]

Thanks Brian, goid laugh to start the day

[HeepH8erTy]

hahaha thats great. If you're worried about it being too short or not fat enough, you could always paint it black. Maybe it will look bigger and longer that way. Just don't let ridgerunner's mom see it...

[ridgerunner97]

Ha **** you ty and the horse you rode in on

[HeepH8erTy]

Haha sorry brotha, couldnt resist! i owe you a beer for that one

[justin'sbig7]

[Sycotik Skier]

Tom keep posting progress pics. It makes me miss my 7 more and more

[justin'sbig7]

Don't leave your bleeders open and walk away, it will bleed dry very quick if you have flow

[ridgerunner97]

Nice! Two things. Tom, are those the ruffstuff's 2+ perches or whatever they call them? And I may have a place that will repair that radiator. Is it all metal?

[mxg342]

I have always ran 3 core rads from 4wdh.

[Super Scout]

I run an Aluminum Rad from Summit, it was like 150 bucks or something. Been in there for years, never missed a beat.

what i ran in my 2a with the smallblock. just measure and go on summit's site and pick one with the correct inlet/outlet and size.

[PatF10]

ive run a stock CJ rad in my 5 with a 360 for years with no shroud and never had any problems. I got mine of someone on HRJA I think.

[Screamn56]

Check out champion radiators. I have one on my tj with a sbc. It never gets above 175.

[jackb1]

Post number 1, photo number 2, in the creek. I like it.

Also, +1 for 4wd 3 core. Had mine for 5? Years. Keeps the 360 cool... But think it is overpriced. Griffin makes every combo available.

[2002wranglerX]

what are you doing for injection?

[Mykal]

lol

[jackb1]

Is it a similar process for filling the transfer case? Please share.
