The unfortunate TJ of the day thread

Answer from owner.
It’s been regeared to 4.88. That was verified by ORI in Winchester, VA if you want to ask. Dana axles front and rear. It’s a 2.4L built for crawling out in AZ so, beefier axles weren’t really needed beyond some welded reinforced bracing, which you can see in the pics. It’s a great build that would benefit from a small block engine swap given it’s no longer used for crawling here in this area.

p.s. Who knew, beefier axles weren't really needed for AZ crawling? :unsure:

That 2.4 doesn't put out much torque, but Dana 30 stock shafts don't need big torque to make them go bang, but I guess as long as all you're doing is letting the gears do the work over obstacles.... :unsure: :unsure: :unsure:

4.88s and 35s means it isn't crawling that slow either... I had 4.56 and 33s and wished I had gone lower with my '97 2.5 4 popper...
 
Im tempted to get one because in Spring it can be sunny in the morning then get a 20 min downpour and back to sunny again.

Well worth it. I’ll leave mine in the driveway with it on or cover it at work and I’ve never had an issue with getting wet.

Thank you to you and @John Cooper helping me spend my money.... I'll add this raincoat to the list haha
 
It does, when I took it off to drive home, the inside was dry as could be!!!!

Is there a particular brand? I've been eyeing a Rain Gear cover.
