Next time just go out and get a Unimog 1100. (Mercedes, true...but absolutely NOTHING to do with the gelandewagon!!).
Sure, the Unimog 1100 is basically a street-legal tractor/skidder/expedition load carrier that gets about 8 mpg....but it has the most amazing articulation I have EVER seen in ANY vehicle....including a military hummvee. Look it up on youtube.
why is the back so long? I've seen the new Jk's but there not nearly as long. is that a different model and older or do they give you the option of that? could you tell me.
nope thats wrong i went off road in my 2001 jeep wrangler sahara and some JK's and some Yj's land cruisers liberties and the Jk's had hard tops on and they were the same size and shape of those in the video
Not since the Jeep Scrambler has one been, for the Jeep Wrangler line, that long until the introduction of the 2004 Jeep unlimited. I know, I have an '05. The last year they were made was in '06. Then in 2007 they introduced the the four door Jeep Unlimited and newer Wranglers (JK's). They never mad a YJ that long. Do your research first. Liberties aren't even a Wrangler.
@haleyfamily1975 more than a foot huh my brother has a lj and he worked at the car dealership where he bought it i thought it was only like six inches more but you could be right
did you have to re-gear your axles when you did your lift i have a unlimited that im looking to do the re 5.5 long arm w/35's wondering if i should add that to the list
@mpackey1337 some 3 inch lift and maybe leaf springs and if your driving over rocks body protection and metal step bars and if you want some Dana 60's a winch yea like that i think the would be a nice jeep maybe unstoppable evn
LOL, I can't afford it either! I had to do it the right way the first time instead of wasting money on other cheaper suspensions. I just did the major trails in Big Bear and had no problem getting through the trails that say "lockers required" in the guide book... without lockers! This suspension keeps the tires on the ground where they need to be. Keep saving it's well worth it.
actually it wouldn't have since its much much bigger than a wrangler but it wouldn't have gotten up there since it just wont have enough flex. (one of the wheels would have lifted) Hummers are good for flat grounds because of their large wheel base and the wide axles (as in side to side) but they are bad for rough surfaces because of that reason.
I went to Gorman with a Hummer group and did the same obstacle. A few were brave enough to take their H1's up and over the whole thing. Of course there were only 2 wheels on the ground after the 1st step. The H1 has a flat bottom that helps slide over pretty much anything.
whats your tire pressure at for stuff like this man? sick jeep also, it looks beasttt

It's an Unlimited made only between 04-06. It has a little more than a foot more in the rear.

i dont know how this is relevant to what i asked...
mpackey1337 2 years ago
I think that it's a good idea to stand on the rollover side and push on the top of the jeep...
I don't think that jeep was close to rollover land though....

Its my daily driver too, so I dont want to hinder gas mileage too much, its already poor with the stock setup.
C0MPUTER101 4 years ago
My daily commute is 60 miles and I am averaging 10 mpg. I figure it will do better with a v8 later on.
pizer99 4 years ago
With that setup, I dont think much of anything is going to be a challenge. Very nice, although I'm too poor to afford long-arm suspension.
