Oh there is lots of 2door luv out there... even spotted a neglected one I sort of want to rescue
4 doors FTWTanner, I disagree with the position expressed in your statement. A wide stance 4-door is not a Jeep (commonly accepted definition), it is an SUV. By todays nanny standards it may fit, but to me it is just another factor in the evolution of this enjoyable hobby. A wider stance came along somewhere in the mid 80s due to a bunch of reckless yayhoos that did not respect the vehicle they were in control of. Their poor behaviour became a legal liability to AMC so management tasked their engineers to accommodate government pressure concerning safety standards.
I will admit there were more pucker factor events with the old axles in the narrow track variation. Your point concerning stability is well taken and truly is a concern with the current marketing audience. The current audience is more risk aversive and lean towards a comfy ride during their off-road exploits, differing from the audience of just 30 years ago. Go back 50 years and Jeepers were mostly self sufficient in nature and possessed a pioneering spirit.
I do agree it is a sad time for fans of the traditional Jeep. And, I also accept the rights of others to do as they please with their enjoyment of the hobby, within legal limits.
Thank you!!Now in my mind this is a Jeep, well done.
Yes they are. I waited three months for them to arrive. They are the nicest looking beed locks IMO, I had seen and easy to clean. Installed by Daytona Garage at dealership where I ordered them along with the lights and winch guard.Are those the bead lock optional rims from Jeep?
I agree that it is a suv but does serve a purpose for those who need the extra space.4 doors FTW
I've had for around a year, no noticeable rusting, not too heavy. Can't complainLooks good. How you like that bumper, its on my shortlist for front bumpers.
