"Wheeler's Anonymous"

We had a 1992 XJ for a few years back around 96-99. The straight 6 is great and it never overheats, even when it doesn't have any coolant in the thing... The pressurized coolant overflow would always rupture and let all the coolant out of it. Sold it to our neighbors, who drove the piss out of it for a few years, then they sold it to our friends who drove it around Arizona for a few years. I believe it was sold as scrap when the rear crank seal blew and killed the engine on the highway. That was around 2010, probably.

 

Xj you gotta do some research I've done a lot lol the 84 -91 first years of the xj still considered AMC came with first generation 4.0 stilll same as newer ones,different cooling system, u joints on the front axle are smaller.

96 and above I believe are the good years the axles are the same but they improved them. High output 4.0 little things around but in general better drive train.

 

XJ has no frame. Or that is the newer model I think the grand Cherokee

 

I mob the piss out of mine lol its kinda nice having a second vehicle that you don't care about.

 

Really only hate about xj unibody the Comanche on the other hand would be great also frame and truck bed

 

Grand Cherokee no frame but the old Cherokee 4.0l h.o has a frame.

 

Cage it!

 

you know what else doesn't have a frame....

 

A good cage ties into the frame. This becomes difficult for the Grand Cherokee but not the old Cherokee

 

SUV with a truck bed stuck on it.

 

Otherwise it's that lame Jeep bolt on crap lol

 

Azusa can be fun. Definitely a good spot to bring lunch. Wheel, chill, and watch monster trucks mash and get stuck in the mud.

 

Okay, so I've gone to Azusa like 6 times this year. Primarily because it's close.

Difficulty level is definitely low. However, there are a few offshoots that I never worked up to trying. It's basically a little 4x4 playground. Some water, some sand, rocks, small hills, and trails. Lots of people wheeling all sorts of 4x4 and AWD vehicles. Stuckage and breakdowns. Monster trucks. I like it best because it provides some great locations for Tacoma glamour shots!

 

Let me know when you go again. My parents live in the area and I spend weekends either there, Havasu, or my girlfriends house.

 

Damn.. You're all over the place!

 

Azusa is usually a last ditch option to wheel when I didn't have the "Wheelers Anonymous" support group.

Lately I've had much cooler places to go.

I don't dislike Azusa at all though.

 

Its a Honda Pilot with a bed.

 

Pending work, count me in for next weekend 16-17th at Pismo then. Hoping my transmission is done for the toy by then

 

84 till latest edition xj are unibody old grand cherokee are have a frame

 

I am between La Verne, Simi Valley, Santa Barbara, Lake Havasu, or Idyllwild every weekend this summer. I don't like SB very much so I try to get away.
