Camel's TJ

Thought i might do a quick blurb on my Jeep.

Purchased it 2nd hand in June of 2002. Was stock as a rock apart from a set of very badly worn 31's. Put a set of 31 MT/R's on and started wheeling it. Oh i also had the worlds worst set of side steps courtesy of the fine folks at Steel Horse.

After a long time planning, dreaming, planning and dreaming of getting the jeep lifted a great opportunity came up. I bought LEXX's old suspension bits and a Sydney wrenching day was convened for Easter 2003. All went well and soon the Jeep was running a shade under 4 inches closer to the clouds. A SYE was fitted a week later to keep the ride a bit less vibey.

I wheeled it in this state for most of 2003. I first ran stock OME shocks but these were too short so purchased a set of 5-way adjustable Rancho 9000's.

Wheeling in the Watagans.

After getting some extractors fitted at the end of 03 i was in the spending spirit and bought a set of 15x8 Black Steelies and a very well priced set of virtually new 2nd hand MT/R's in the 33x12.5R15 size. These went on at the end of the year even though gears and lockers would still be a while off.

Eventually mid way through 2004 funds became available to do the diffs on the jeep and i filled them with some 2nd Hand 4.10's (cheers Pizzazz) and ARB Air Lockers front and rear. This opened up a whole new playground of trails and potential for carnage.

Dont you think rock sliders should come before sub machine gun? 8O

I saw what you did last time at Winchbreak... :wink:

Yea rocksliders should be right up the top. That's whats happening next after my auto is fixed.

although a gun would be cool dont get me wrong.. :D

VERY NICE Jeep! Very Nice! In looking at some of the pix....the trails that you are on look amazingly similar to trails that I wheel on near my home here in Tennessee, U.S.A.!
