You have a month to get it dialed in

 

[NashvilleTJ]

I think Pritchett will have a lot of people reevaluating their builds. Before you know it we'll all be going down the same path as @NashvilleTJ after running golden crack.

I need to see if I can dig up a picture of the rig doing Golden Crack...

Deadlines.

-Trim savvy GTS at the rear shock crossmember for trackbar clearance (1 hour)
-Hand throttle
-Couple of test runs

I think that’s it.

Driving ability aside, you and I are probably pretty close to equal capability. You running Pritchett?

You forgot 4" coils!

Yes, I think we are going to do it first thing in the morning on Monday. I think we are pretty close if you get the 4" coils on, just 33" vs 35". Of course another variable is my longer wheel base - which is both good and bad depending on the obstacle.

Haha.

If I do that I have to do shocks, adjust pinion front and rear, adjust trackbars front and rear, perhaps remove 1" bumpstop , oh, and extended front brake lines (which I 'm doing anyway). Geez.

Right now it's sitting pretty much perfect.

What to do, what to do

Shocks you should measure, I did the 2" ranchos and they were still too long collapsed for the 4" coils. Thus began a rabbit hole. Once my 12" fox's ship the old ones will be up for grabs for the rear - unfortunately I am guessing mid summer and not before TJ Fest.

Dang. I'm still sitting on my 2" Ranchos. I have 5 up and 4.5 or so down (whatever the exact number is). I was going to try the Rancho's @Alex01 is using. I've got the numbers somewhere. A good reason to probably just sit tight and hit Moab with current configuration.

Run with us on Monday of TJFest doing Poison Spider and the gold trails. Then decide if Pritchett is doable on Wednesday. Don’t overthink it.

RS55241's? I just found out my left rear is seeping oil.

Correct. And RS55239

If you decide to break up the set, I'd be interested in the rears. I can't seem to give away these JKS shocks. I hate it when I do stupid shit!
