Post by: Krawler00 on May 01, 2012, 11:05:56 PM: Dumb or cool? I say dumb. Way too unstable for my liking.

To be stable on 4d's he needs to be over a 100in wheel base, the stock 94 won't cut it when extreme flex is needed.

Is he even running wontons?

Post by: Krawler00 on May 03, 2012, 09:12:49 AM: Nope. He is on little axles. I posted on facebook (where I pulled the pick) that it was a rollover waiting to happen. I had guys jump on me and disagree. So that is why I posted it to see what everyone thought. NO WAY IN HELL I WOULD WHEEL A STOCK WHEELBASE TJ ON 42s!!!!!! That is retarded if you ask me. Like to see that thing do any of the trails here in the souteast... I would pay to see it ;D

Post by: tcdawg on May 03, 2012, 01:48:13 PM: Yeah, I saw this rig at Jeep Beach. I'm sure they do wheel it and as Doug said, it did some of the obstacle course junk but it's definitely more show jeep than wheeler.

Post by: rabunjeeper on May 04, 2012, 10:09:43 AM: Mine is a YJ, 2 inches over stock wb w/39.5s. It does get a lil scary sometimes but if you take it easy and r preparred for the wheelies, it gets it done. I would like to move the rear axle back 2 more inches. Side hilling is very stable but it does have stock width one tons.
