Colorado B.S. Thread

I believe re-routing the exhaust is only necessary when switching to long arms. Rubi's have front and rear 44's and the other models have front 30's and rear 44's. Some models have a 35 rear, but it's pretty rare I think. Also, gearing was an option. My Sahara had 4.10's to my surprise, but some have 3.73's.

 

Nice Oldschool Nuggets colorado sticker noah, i have that same one on my desk at work. Being an artist has its advantages, i get to bring a bunch of shit or toys from home to work and personalize my office!!! ha ha ha skateboards, nerf guns, camera shit

 

yeah its going to depend on the use of the jeep another thing to think about is with the 4 doors I have heard some guys bending the axles and all other kinds of supension issues

 

Thanks man, I am always surprised there arent more cool stickers out there given that there are so many sick artists and technology.

 

Apparently the retards over at discount tire cannot mount a wheel on the spare tire I just bought because its too old?

 

Go here and ask for Jason. He is my Cousin he should be able to hook you up.

As to the Jeep questions. You can run 35's on a sport...problem is they come with a D30 front and D44 rear. Which last I checked were geared with 3.73's...the mileage will take a shit and the get up and go will be slow, almost painfully slow, but livable if your don't mash the skinny pedal. I have seen this setup run all of MOAB and so far the only upgrade my buddy has made is re-geared to 5.13's. He has since sleeved and gusseted the front axle.

The Rubicon has D44 front and back with 4.10's. I ran mine with 35's for over 25k miles with this set up. After some very heavy wheeling (MOAB / Rubicon) I finally broke the front axle. So replaced both front and rear with D60's and 5.38 gears and 37" tires. I sold it shortly after doing the rebuild.

If its a weekend wheeler and you want to run 35's that's an easy 2.5 inch lift that is very capable and with the stock Rubicon 4.10's doesn't suck to bad. The 3.73's will be livable until you can save up enough cash to rebuild them. One other thing to consider is that the D30 will house a 5.13 gear, but it causes several problems with drive lines and is very weak due to its size in the D30 carrier. So if in the future you wanted to go to say a 5.13 which is great for 35's then the D44 axle is a better bet. If you ever wanted to re-gear to 5.38's which was amazing for my liking, you couldn't use the D30

 

On a side note...I am buying a lift soon and would be cool to do a meet and greet to help me install it. I know perfectly well I can install the lift on my own, I can use all the on base tools on Fort Carson or Peterson. I really only want to do it for the friendship and good memories. The one thing I would truly need help on is a cab mount chop because I have zero welding experience.

 

Thanks Eric. Got it accomplished. Went to big o tires and they did it for free. Discount are a bunch of Idiots

 

Yup!!

 

Just got an iPad for free! My bro got two o the new iPads and gave me his old one. It the one that needs a wifi network but who cares it was free!

 

Damn! I got the wife to okay buyin the ome lift being sold by the guy in castle rock when we get back in town on Saturday and someone else is getting it

 

Damn, he did have it for a good price for sure. Im surprised it lasted as ling as it did. I mean you an buy it from toytec and pick it up. There are some of us that can assist with the install if need be.

 

Hey man, that's a pretty good stack of info on the jeeps. If I ever decide to go that route I'll take it all into consideration. The cab mount chop is pretty easy but I never welded plates on mine.

 

1000 pages !

 

you can also get the coils done at like a big O for $15 a piece which makes the install alot faster

 

The Big O that I contacted here wanted $100 back when I put the 884's in. I did them myself. I did the 885s myself as well. I would actually pay $100 if I were to go to 886's though.

 

Drinking already?!

 

just depends on who you talk to I know the big o I castle pines I could always wheel and deal with them
