[45asetr]

[DallinJeepsUtah]

Well Done.

[cynicalwry]

What exhaust are you running?

[chaw1]

@cynicalwry

Magnfalow muffler and 2.5" pipe from cat all the way back.

[86powerram]

body lifts are nice if u do alot of work on your rig the extra clearance around the tranny makes life so much easyer

[mattbob18]

Body lift doesnt help ground clearance cause ur only seperating the body from the frame thats it

[rumswigger]

but you can fit bigger tires to gain ground clearance... it just don't flex better cuz it's stock suspension. good to do a little of both. tj guys say 1.25 body and 2.75 suspension will fit 33's and not give too much angle on drive shaft u joints like a 4 inch suspension will

[craner6]

that was nice !!!!!!!

[LaZyLuKe25]

whats the difference between a body lift and suspension lift?

[akrackenberger]

they are exactly as they sound.

A body lift lifts the body. It puts spacers between the body and the frame.

The suspension lift is anything from new leaf or shocks to add a leafs.

[LaZyLuKe25]

does a body lift help with clearnce or just looks?

[akrackenberger]

It helps with clearence...but I have been told, they are not what you should do? Suspension is the way to go is what I have been told

[LaZyLuKe25]

i plan on doing a 4in suspension lift and 3 inch body lift to a rubicon

[TJvigilante]

@LaZyLuKe25 please don't do the body lift. body lifts are dangerous over a certain amount because it puts excess strain on the body mounts, the body mount bolts, and the tub.

Body lifts are only good for getting more room for your driveline. A 1" body lift allows you to run a flush transfer case skidplate by allowing the transfer case to fit between the body and the skid. 1" is the most I'd go, personally, and I did.

[mrledlights]

COOL! good looking jeep

[rumswigger]

you running lockers? how much lift? snow wheeling rocks!!!

[chaw1]

Yes, ARB air lockers front and rear. Running RE 3.5" lift, but actually gained closer to 4.5" from the lift.

Snow wheelin' is a blast...it makes everything harder!

[40ashort]

@chaw1 You gain more than the lift actually says because you have to take into account that the tires are bigger. So, if you run stock tires, say 28'', then you'll get 3.5 inches of lift (and it will look stupid). But, when you put on 31 or 32'' tires, then you'll get closer to 6 or 7 actual inches of extra ground clearance.

[Blakspire]

@40ashort LOL Basics bro, Welcome to the world of internal combustion.

[40ashort]

@Blakspire Internal combustion? I'm confused, that suggests an engine, but I was talking about a lift. Just curious.

[ImportMafia]

can't wait for some snow wheelin' this year

[spondylos]

Cool, what tires are you running?

[chaw1]

305/70/16 (33x12.5) Goodyear MTR

[TheJeepWheeler]

Any Lockers or Limited Slips?

were you even aired down at all?

[tryxx8]

70 means 12inchs bud. 75 are true 12.5s

[ridejb99]

very nice! way to keep those rippies up

[PANCHO686]

it's a jeep thing !!!

[tonyaltn]

Yellow Jeeps rule!

Sweet vid....wish I would of bought mine before winted ended, now I have to wait till next year to play in the snow, lol.

[gangstagunitt]

[chaw1]

Snow is fun! It makes everything harder ...

Thanks for the compliments.

[maxwatte]

HELL YEA!!!!!!!!!!!

[traxxas91296]

[Bassmasta94632]

[c2c2p1]

[Vampirotuning]

Jeep Rulez!!!

[shadz83]

NICE!

[wakeboardwacko]

THATS WHAT I CALL WHEELIN

Awsome jeep dude

[brucesterj]

SWEET..! Gotta love snow wheelin'.. I got some snow vids too. I switch it up and put mine on "cruise control" too. lol..

add a Banks header when you can to that I-6. I must have got a 15hp boost from mine.

[exonei]

hey man what exhaust do you have on that?

[chaw1]

I am running a Magnaflow muffler with 2.5" diameter tubing all the way back!

[exonei]

It sounds great. I have a 85 CJ7 with the 258 4.2 engine.  I wonder if it would sound the same on my Jeep?

[vegetablegod]

That video has actually turned me away from a glasspack. I want the Magnaflow

[centralgrand]

I can't believe I'm askin this as a Jeep owner myself... what engine is that? I'm picturing a 2.5 w/ a glass pack or something or an I6 w/ an aftermarket intake... but hell my I6 doesn't even sound like that w/ an intake and flowmaster...

[chaw1]

4.0L stock I6.  Stock Intake.

Thanks for asking!

[1stTimeJeeper]

VERY nice, I'm starting to understand what the phrase "Its a Jeep Thing" means! hahah

[94jeeper]

damn that thing sounded fn awesome. that did really good up that hill. sweet jeep

[chaw1]

Thanks for the compliment! Took several tries before I made it up....had to work the wheel back and forth to keep my momentum going. Wheelin' in the snow makes everything so much more challenging.

Thanks again for your comments.
