Its my G6 setup got the mayhem monsters with .750 hubs for good width... the tires in front are much softer then the back 2 for some reason. I trimmed all the inner ribbing off all 4 tires with plenty break in time plus a healthy lug haircut never hurts. No inner weights added

As for foams dual stage lil novas all the way around.

For class 2 I running mayhem trailshooter flipped around with the small mayhem hub. So my width isn't out of spec. With the pitbulls of course. Love them tires! 3oz each rear and 3.5oz each front.

here it is installed had to use a smaller rod as the stock one was way to big and didn allow any flex at all but this seems to work well gonna try a slightly larger rod n see if it works a lil bit better. but this will suffice for now.
also had to trim the arms down a bit as they were way to long

A little curious, what does the sway bar do for you?

[j-bird]

So how well does that sway set up work.. I'm sure it's great for higher speed on a rough course but does it affect you climbing..are the pro's better than the cons.. I was thinking about doing it on my k5 because I'm vonna be running a 18.5 and mmp on 4s but I don't wanna lose any advantages climbing.. I'm setting the rig up for the g6 we are having in march.. Buggy is gonna be in it and we all know how fast his rig is so I'm wanting to get a step ahead of that douchebag..(just kidding) gabe.. And I've said it b4 but I'll say it again I freaking love that jeep man.. And those mayhem's are the ice on the cake.. I have mine set up with the .750's too the extra width has to help me out IMO ... Keep up the great work you never seem to disappoint me

Thx jay I really appreciate the kind words.... really do!

My rigs rear suspension is rather soft so when climbing steep climbs it tends to wanna twist and sometimes resulting in rollover so I wanted to limit the side to side movement when the truck is not articulated with out having to stiffen or further preload the shocks. As I wanna make it a bit softer in the rear w/o affecting the side to side roll.... hope this helps

This rig is awsome great job cant wait to see whats next

[rcscaler]

lol...really love this winch
as u said it has a 7lb dead lift capability, so it has more power than servo winch, right? (if we compare with hitec 7955 servo winch, or some other over 300oz servo)

by the way,
do u run this winch with CCBEC?

I'm unfamiliar with this winch, but my lackluster 160 oz-in winch servo on 6 volts deadlifted my 11+ lb. scaler relatively easily and barely slowed down. But I'm very interested in this new winch and will have to dig up some info. on it.

Rig is looking great and I'm digging the rear sway bar set up!

i wouldn go so far as to say stronger than a servo winch.. but def is stronger than any other of its type.. besides the quicksand but that is a servo winch as well...

no i run it strait off the rx as i dont have room underneath for mulitiple bec's..

Thx bro I like it to just not sure about it yet.

The windshield frame looks killer! And the reduced boggers!!! Nice! 2.2s cut down right? I've got a question though, how round are they? Do they have any pronounced out of shapedness to them? They look sick!!!

Yup from 2.2 down to 1.9. And thank you very much!!

You tell me how round. Both without foam

[YoUnG_vErSiOn]

how wide is the windshield? if you want to sell one of yours ill buy one from you. i need one.

[kaneohecrawler]

Just bring ur rig by some time I can toss one together rather quickly. Shoot me a pm if anything. But the stock tj ones are way to narrow and short for a jk. Lemme know bro.

[Bulldog]

They look pretty damn perfect to me. I've heard it's not that hard, but I'd still be scared to try it. I guess the only way to fail is by not trying at all. It's in my mental rolodex!
