diesles are waaaaay to heavy, 4 cyl. have no power, a lot of jeepers keep the I6 decent power/torq at the low rpms, but it all depends on what build you do for what kind of crawler/trail vehicle glad to see some one else sporting a YJ  what are the mods on that? i plan on doing the rubi in september

the torgue just isn't enough to compensate for the weight, but you can go under water with gas too, with a snorkle heres my YJ nothing special 3 inch body life :(, 32" procomp muds, custom J10 rear seat , brute force clutch, other then that its stock, but i think a lift kit is coming for my bday, then its off to get a Dana 44 for teh rear and regearing to 4.10seven with it unbuilt, i make it go every were   |

i've considered a spring over, it gives you about 4.5 stock, but i think my brother is getting my a lift kit for my bday, so we'll just have to see what happens, full cage and an ausie locker as next in line for it

After watching that it reinforces the "I understand the jeep thing, thats why I drive a Toyota". my 4runner has a 4 banger and dont have problems, well I also regreared the axles to 5.29's Last edited by Crawlsalot; 04-04-2006 at 08:10 PM. |

Moved to chit chat. This is a Radio Controled Crawler forum, not a 1:1. If it's not RC Crawling related, then don't post it in the videos section. |
