i look through this thread, and by far HeavyMetal is probably one of my favorite Jeeps out there, not to steal your thunder but that one with all the doors off next to the water on the first page makes an awesome wallpaper! also probably one of the most well documented builds ive seen in a while. keep this jeep goin!

Thanks man, appreciate it

Jeez, thanks now its gone to his head, fuckin internet ego over here!

[Buffalo Phil]

[HeavyMetal]

too bad i dont have a dimple die..

[Zullock Holmes]

Holy mother of dimple dies!!!!! can i do some glamis shit like that to heavy....




pretty please

[Zullock Holmes]

agreed, you don't need to go that crazy on your front end.

I say we hide the tube inside the fender wells, straight forward from you A-pillars, and make one nice 1.75 hole through the upper corner of the grill just above the headlight.

Then tie into your stinger/bumper hoop (whatever you call it)


btw... pics of that xj. looks good, deff a good option, my thought is to pretty much completely remove any tube from the engine compartment alltogether.

Every chassis has flex.A matter of how much flex you want and where you want it to flex combined with how you want your car to handle is really what that "crossbar" is for.Unless you plan on doing high speed pavement turns a "crossbar" in that area wont be much use to you.

[HeavyMetal]

preventing chassis flex = structural support doesnt it?

[armadasx]

seee it this is on jeff gordons car actually but if its good enough for nascar must be fine for heavy.

JUST GLUE IT MILDRED

Dizz that "crossbar" is there to tighen up the front end of the car coming into the turn giving the chassis less flex,rather than providing structural support.Im not arguing that it dosent provide support,cause it def does.Just thats not whats its there for.
