couldn't tell if he was brave or stupid for stopping in the middle of that hill BUT that's one AWESOME rodeo.. Is that what you plan for yours?

[Squshiee1]

ummm eventually an sas would be nice. but i really am not sure yet.

[mattzj98]

why get rid of IFS? i saw that crazy flex!

[Squshiee1]

crazy flex????? really.... :confused:, its hard to tell if your being sarcastic on the web, no offence.
ummm yea i have alot of work.
i was wondering what SAS actually stands for, i know what you need to do but i don't know what it stands for.

[Squshiee1]

oh and his tranny poped out of gear.
Oh i want to take my muffler off now just to see how it sounds, any one want to help weld it back on if it sounds like a piece of junk.

[Squshiee1]

OK! it all makes sense now. Well i have some saving up to do.

solid axle swap

One question how much can you trim the rear fenders on your years cause my buddy claims he can't on his rodeo?

[mattzj98]

You don't trim a rodeo, a rodeo trims you...

Hope that helped? :p

Well i have some saving up to do.

With junkyard springs, FSJ or full size Cherokee axles, transfer cases, and other parts, it can be done quite a bit cheaper than you think, Chase. Do your research and start collecting parts now. Before you know it you'll be ready for the actual swap. But start with research. Talk to people who've done it, ask for advise, and above all, formulate a plan of attack, round up a "team" and it can be relatively easy.

Cool Chase! That set up would be cool on yours 4 sure!

[Squshiee1]

I believe you can trim quite a bit but only on the rear of the fender, by the bumper.

[Squshiee1]

Well first i would have to fix my water pump, then i can start thinking about all of the goodies. i have to make it run first.
And i might have to replace my rear diff also, it seems like it might be going out... :frown:

There's no need to SAS to do that kind of wheeling on slick rock, IFS does just fine and I'll guess you could do it now if your truck is running well. When you want SAS is when your wheels are going over terrain where they aren't relative to each other.

sweet video, bad time to slip out of gear! wish it was a little longer, I"d like to see how that played out.

[Cr33p3r]

That was one steep incline.

[Chris]

I'm thinking that's Kenny's Climb on Fins & Things. Anyone agree? Disagree?

[Squshiee1]

im thinking that im going to try it! :rolleyes:

[Rob]

I'm thinking that's Kenny's Climb on Fins & Things. Anyone agree? Disagree?

It kind of looks like Kenny's Climb, but I don't think it is. I think it is Launch Pad.

[Chris]

Not familiar with that Rob. If he made it to the top it would be easier to tell.

[Rob]

If he made it to the top it would be easier to tell.

I agree, but it was the bottom and background that looked different to me. (I tried to compare it with pics from our runs there.) And it seems a touch longer than Kenny's Climb.

What I liked about this video and all of the other 'Rodeo on Poison Spider' related ones that show the same rig are the amount of straps that start showing up underneath the rig holding all the junk together. Take a look at the videos and first you see an orange strap holding something together on the front...maybe..it goes all the way to the back. Then there is a white strap that shows up on the driver's side shackle...

Looks to be the shakedown cruise for the SAS...Agreed, a shaky place to have a rig pop out of gear...
