Crystal Rubi build…

[Roky]

Good idea. Now. Let’s see how super glue holds

Yeah exactly..... lol.... I put it through a couple miles of washboard, pot holes and whoops, then 80 mph on freeway to and from wheeling today, so far so good. I figured I’m not any worse off if they fail, I just didn’t want to have to take front end apart just to add the seals. Was hoping they last till I re-gear......

Hello, Mr. Jelly do you have your own Off-road shop?

If for some reason a wild hair crawls up somewhere and I wanted to just shot for the stars and set my Rubicon up to do what yours will do what dent would it put in a wallet??

My biscuit is on the plate but my Jelly is in jar still.

Lol.... I have a nice shop with a lift I can use whenever I need it, otherwise I do all my work in my small garage. I used to wrench for a living many many years ago, got into building houses, now I wrench for a hobby, and sometimes a little Jeep parts money.lol.

As for the dent, it will be a pretty good one, but will eventually buff out........even though it’s the same amount of money, mine has been spread out over a couple of years, so it doesn’t hurt as bad....

Nice!!!! ..... well if you just did lift and shocks, that would give you the flexibility, that’s around 5-6k then you can do steering later when needed, but if you did it all at once, probably close to 10k.

Haha. $3K in shocks alone

Dang left my PC on all night long. Hell getting old. Just walked in to turn it on and it's on.

So you are talking about the BIG 6 pack shocks I see on Litebrite videos and the RC 3.5 lift you have?
Question will Jeep still fit in the normal garage? I haven't measured it but I would guess my Jeep with the Mopar lift on 35's have 3 inches to spare.

It May sound corny but one bucket list is the true Rubicon trail. Barlow adventures group says need skids and at least 35's

No 6 packs shocks for me, I’m a Fox guy, lol. I have the Fox 2.5 DSC reservoir shocks . There’s a high speed and a low speed adjustment on them........

And yeah, you will still fit in garage, it’s 78” ground to top of hardtop.

There are 4 on Fox website. External Bypass Coil-over Internal bypass Coil Over and
Smooth Body.

None look like the short fat reservoir you have.

Mine are for 4.5-6” lift. I’m not sure what those numbers are for, but if it’s shock travel then mine are 12”. If you considering these shocks, definitely talk to @AccuTunedJL , they will custom tune them for your specific rig. How you use it, weight etc.
