http://cwm.ragesofsanity.com/otn/happy/drool.gif I can't ever get enough of your TJ Shlingdawg. You have my vote for the nicest TJ!:) I'm partial to big white TJ's though since we have one in the family.;) Not as big as yours, but working on it.:D :D

Do you ever want to throw it in reverse and ramp tailgaters?:D

That one's officially been reclassed as a peej. No person right in the head could call that a jeep. Maybe someone should explain to the poor soul the idea is to go OVER the rocks not under them...

Why would someone EVER, EVER lower a jeep, it makes me cry to even write this. Shling Dawg, I want you to take that TJ and scare that black stupid person w/ your jeep, and then ***** slap him so hard that he falls out of that jeep

Nice jeep shlingdawg. That photo makes a good height comparison between the two.

You left "EXTREMELY LARGE" out of your poll.

Very nice Jeep.

It is a big Jeep. Just wondering how much travel you get? Did you make it so big that you don't need much flex? Nice Looking though.

Well, how much travel do I need? I ramped it on a 30* ramp last week. I had street pressure in my tires and I stopped at 730. I imagine I could have gone a bit further if I really tried to milk it, but I thought 730 on a 30* ramp is pretty darn good.

There is such a thing as too much flex. At 13" over stock, I don't want too much. :eek: I'm happy where it's at, and with 38.5's, with score of 730...........I'm very pleased.

shlingdawg
04-10-2001, 07:34 AM
Oh, here is a more recent pic of it doing the 730 last week.

No bad, eh?

Ya that is sweet. If you ramped more it would probably be a little much off camber.

Nice looking rig though.

It seems to me that ZJ's go for more on flex. On the ZJ board a guy has ramped 934 front and 940 rear with 1.8" of lift.

shlingdawg
04-10-2001, 09:29 AM
Make sure you're comparing apples to apples. If he's ramping on a 30* ramp at a 940 in a 1.8" lifted ZJ, I want pics. If he's on a 20* or a 23* ramp, I'm not impressed. On a 20* ramp, my TJ will ramp around 1300 or so.

J's Jeep
04-10-2001, 09:48 AM
I just know he scored a 904 RTI with 1.8" of lift. To me that is impressive. I mean he is 10.2" of lift less then you.

I don't want to sound like I am not impressed with your rig or TJ's for that matter. Just was wondering if the size of your Jeep being 13" gives up any flexing. Like the higher you go the percentage of flex to how high you sit is less. Or maybe it is the tire size.

Like I said before difinalty thumbs up on your Jeep.

shlingdawg
04-10-2001, 09:56 AM
I see your point. It's all good. I'm not sure if it's lift or tire, but when I had my 3T and 33's, I ramped 1312 on a 20* ramp. There really needs to be a "norm" on RTI. I think that the 30* is now becomming the standard. There are still some shops that use 20 and 23* ramps, but they give a deceiving score. I'll see if I can find the calculation on changing the score from ramp to ramp.

Having seen a ZJ on the 30* ramp last week, with his 31's, he only scored in the low 500's. I'm not going to believe a ZJ with that small of a lift would get 940.

Here's a pic of Rand Ridges CJ 8 (comparitive wheelbase to a ZJ) and he scored in the high 800's or low 900's. He's running a lot more than 1.8" of lift.

Here's a Comanche that scored in the high 600's, low 700's.

I'm not saying that this ZJ is lying about his ramp score, but put him on a level playing field with the rest of us. ;)

Those are some sweet pics. Ya I did not see him do it so I was thinking he was full of caca. But I will send him a link to this and see if he has anything to say. I am sure you have already seen my ZJ. It has stock controll arms but still does pretty well.

In response to your "Grocery Getter" ramping.....DANG!

I saw a lowered TJ last night and wanted to cry.

I really like the comparison shot of it with the stock TJ.

I was hoping to check out your rig in a couple of weeks but don't worry I'll meet up with you one day and I'll get you that rear sugar that you want in your Coke

Thanks Cutch, I look forward to the 'rear sugar'! Hopefully a September run will pan out. Count me in for sure if it does!

That is one bad@$$ TJ shlingdawg. I've seen the same pictures over on JU before, but that one of it sitting next to the stock TJ just amazes me everytime. NICE Jeep!

Is there anyway we could work out a picture of shlingdawg's Jeep running over the top of Etnomaiab's peej? I'd pay to see it, I really would.

On the 20* ramp you would only score a 1095 (the conversion for 730 on the 30*).

A 904 would be 603 on the 30*

NNOOOOOO!!!
the poor jeep needs the skids and 4wd to get over the speed bumps. probably lifts tires on speed bump crossings too.
