    Progress for working on my 95 Sahara

    So, I have done some more mods on the YJ and also I had to change out my new winch too. I loved the look of the Rugcel winch but when I went to stretch the rope before using it as per instructions, I saw that it was wound over the top instead of under the spool. The only way to fix this is to...

    Thinking about a YJ

    Hrm... Just my opinion but my jeep has some obvious rust on the fenders front and rear of about a 3 inch spot here and there except the front driver that got hit at one point and rotted through. My point is I have some rust but with the 95 it is galvanized so not normally as bad as other years...

    Progress for working on my 95 Sahara

    So, compaired to the first photo with the original rims etc, besides the new to me tires and rims that fit the 4 inch lift much better I started working on removing the red paint, My goal is to return it to a Sahara so I got about half the paint removed with Grafitti remover the other day...

    In need of lift and tire advice

    Ya, I just put 33x12.5 on mine because it had a 4 inch lift and it would cost more to remove the spring lift then just try it with 33's. I might have to stop by a stump to get in and out of it ;) but it looks kewl and has a ton of clearance.

    In need of lift and tire advice

    I would put 31x10.5 on it. The 2.5 can handle that for sure. He probably did that and is looking for his new set now... lol

    Progress for working on my 95 Sahara

The jeep will eventually be topless except the rag top or Bikini and I will be and am already looking for half doors or tube doors since it will be...

    I am new too! 95 Jurassic soon to be brought back to Sahara.

    I have to wait til the snow clears, should be gone by the 15th of april about but then I will remove all the red paint. I used some grafitti remover yesterday and did a 5 minute test and it should be done in a morning I would think... Also put on the tires which makes a huge difference, I will...

    In need of lift and tire advice

    My last jeep had 31's on it and I believe it had no lift. The 2.5 and ran pretty good but was no speed wagon. I put a ton of work into it then had to sell it because of a leg injury. I just put 33s on this one but it has a 4 inch spring lift and a transfer case drop. Looks good, I have only...

    Here it is!

    Wow, beautiful jeep! I also have the automatic in mine too and towed it home with a dolly but I took the rear drive shaft off so hopefully my transmission is ok. I just put some 33x12.5 on it too and have a 4 inch spring lift and a 1 1/2 to 2 inch transfer case spacer. If you are still in this...

    Should I get a hard top or a soft top?

    I have the same plan for mine too. I have had lots of jeeps in the past and only one that I left the hard top on was my daily driver and even when I had that one I had two vehicles licensed and the only driver in the family so I didn't need the hard top or hard doors really because it is always...

    I am new too! 95 Jurassic soon to be brought back to Sahara.

    No brakes on the tent trailer as of yet but I know what you mean, I towed this jeep home in one of the worst snow storms this year behind my Tacoma on a car dolly with no brakes and no locking pin and it was pushing the truck sideways a number of times in a 150 km journey. There were 2 semis...

    I am new too! 95 Jurassic soon to be brought back to Sahara.

    Yes, like i said I have a 4 l ( 4 litre in my jeep HO ) then, I mentioned the towing with a Tacoma which is my 2006 trd offroad it has a tow capacity of 6800 lbs and my old camper trailer was approx 6000 loaded and it pulled it at the speed limit all day. I mentioned that it is also a 4l meaning...

    I am new too! 95 Jurassic soon to be brought back to Sahara.

    Also, how much does your trailer weigh that is in the photo, I have the 4l ho and plan on pulling my tent trailer that is about 1100 lbs. It might be pretty gutless with the automatic. My Tacoma could pull it down the highway upside down passing everything on the road just sayin. It is a 4l too...

    I am new too! 95 Jurassic soon to be brought back to Sahara.

    Ya, For BC in Canada this is a good one. The tub and frame on the 95 is Galvanized and it great shape. where the front fender was damaged it is rusted out but the other three small spots are surface and the frame had to pass a safety here a few years ago so it is solid too. Alot of the wrold is...
