Ben in trial run
« on: November 08, 2008, 08:22:44 PM »
This is a video of Ben, a member of my 4x4 club back in Michigan. He just finished doing a lot of upgrades on his TJ and went for a test drive. This is a 97 TJ with 4.0 and 5spd, but with HP D44 front axle and 9" rear axle out of a late 70s ford 3/4 ton truck. He built all of the suspension himself and is sitting on 38s. He said he still has some work to do. He broke two of his limiting straps during this test run.
