4.0L HO Jeep Engine Build
Thanks 74scamp360! I thought it was a nice improvement without looking garish and since these are factory wheels, they are cast here in the US so I have no worries about excessive runout or the like. Hell, I don't think any aftermarket wheels under $300 a piece are cast here anymore. AND they have the Mopar Pentastar cast in the back. 8)
Mope, as you know, there's nothing so unsafe as a poorly done lift. I've seen aluminum blocks wear and break, driveshafts vibrating and tearing up bearings, not to mention the handling and power problems you speak of. Yeah, it looks neat standing still but WTF. It's the difference between looking cool and being cool. 8) No posing here, just the real deal. Feel free to PM me ahead of time and get my number as you are welcome in my shop anytime. You are a thinking man and that's a breath of fresh air from the younger generation. :read2:
While I was in the rear suspension I checked the brakes and found that both wheel cylinders were leaking and had polluted the shoes with brake fluid. In the course of rebuilding the brakes, I twisted off one steel brake line. Doktor_X said I would too, lol. Thanks Dok.... :finga: lol. I got lucky with all the suspension and hitch bolts so this must've been karma. No big deal though, I just made another:
