How About the WJs?
- Thread starter Overland 505
- Start date
I rebuilt the motor. Then put 2" pucks on it. Then 3" springs then came across a set of IRO front long arms cheap so I had to go 4" for those. Swapped in some some overland axles with 3.73 gears and Variloks (limited slips) front and back.

Thinking many of those blown motors were 4.7l bought my WJ for 250 with a motor that dropped the timing chain dropped a good used one in and then proceeded to spend all to much on secondary items 2" bb led lights, roof rack and several other superfluous items now I'm in cool off mode until the summer.

I miss mt WJ.. it was a 2004 with 4.0 and only had 90k on it when I bought it, this thing was show-room clean. I lifted it 3in, slapped 32in Duratracs on it, roof rack and lights and loved it! Now I own an XJ and love it more, except I really miss how comfortable my WJ was. Sadly, Red Riding Hood was totaled a year ago :(
Here she is, with my parents sitting on it when we went to get our Christmas tree a couple years ago.

Here's mine. It's turned out to be a great all around right.

I like the Gatekeeper, been thinking about making something similar.
Got my IRO track bar bushing and a couple weld washers from Kar tek Off-road.
Very nice!! What size are the weld washers? I definitely need a set of these

can anyone with a v8 wj take a quick measurement for me?
I need the battery location measured.
basically from the rubber seal to the condenser (or whatever the silver thing is lol) back by the coolant reservoir, and then from the fuse box to the a/c line.
width by length.
thanks to anyone who can do this.
