Absolutely enough power, don’t forget all WW2 Jeeps were 4 cylinders 😊

I have a 4 cylinder and take it on trails all the time. Its actually got more than enough power if you change the gearing and it actually takes a lot of strain off of the axels. Less power but more control and it is also 600 lbs lighter than the 4.0 so it actually gives you a lot of power to ground on 33's. :)
I put Turbo on my yj. It drives like normal until i put my foot in it. The 4cyl seems to be fine with a little boost. It's most helpful on the interstate.
This was a really fun project Jeep to watch you guys build week after week. That squeak is killing, but it’s probably just something stupid. Can’t wait to see how the LJ build turns out!
I dig it , I also have a 2.5 liter , 4 banger It’s slow but it’s extremely reliable,dependable and fun to drive I m running 33’s Mickey Thompson Baja legends mud terrain with a 2.5” lift A slip yoke eliminator Heavy duty rear driveshaft Ultra black rims A garvin wilderness swing out tire carrier with two gas can holders,hi lift jack holder ,axe and shovel holder Heavy duty front suspension system Sway bar quick disconnect Hd tie rod Hd trac bar Hd drag link bar steering stabilizer All new ball joints Chromoly axles with stainless steel timken wheel bearings and hub Frameless top Everything has been replaced or upgraded Next I want to go with either 4.56 or 4.88 gears and lockers So I dig it hitting the California mountains around may Thanks for the video and info

Welcome aboard!
Do you know what that squeak is coming from? I have a 97 tj that has that squeak and I can’t figure out where it’s coming from.
That looks like such a beautiful area! I was just actually at Canmore up here in May and went down some roads that look very similar to some of those trails. I did it by myself and I do wish I had someone with me, but it was still beautiful and peaceful!

Totally! It's so peaceful! Next time we'll take our RTT and stay the day
Everything depends on the gearing. 4.88's would make that a trail monster. 4.56 for a middle performance road/trail rig.

Yeah.. for us the gearing is more to make it better off road. 4 lo and manual even with 4.10s were great

Thank you!
It's not about power it's about the differential. If you're running a Dana 35 then 33's are the biggest tire you can run. And better be easy on the skinny pedal.
Great looking Jeep

Your right about 1 thing! You shouldn't go out into the middle of no-where by yourself! If you would have broken down...WOW!

Totally! Luckily we have cellular service here and lots of people around us
You could always throw a 4.0L throttle body on for a little more power
You should have two handguns with extra clips and one rifle. This country is really messed up. Don’t let her get hurt. And always cover your plates

Like those rims
I would assume that the roof/luggage rack restricts opening the convertible top.
Very awesome trail! Where is this and what is the name please and thank you
I love my little 4 cylinder TJ I have a 2013 JKU and I wanted something simple and fun so I bought a 1999 TJ

Nice!
What lift? What do you think of the tires? I’d been eyeballing those. Considering a similar build in the not too distant future.
I have a 4 cylinder it needs different gears the gears are factory I have 32x15 and if it’s windy out side forget it I feel like the Flintstones in it any recommendations it has a 3 inch lift

What shocks you running? Some stiffer shocks can make a big difference in handling
Hey! Can i instaill 33x12.5r15 as my spare tire on original tailgate?
@cbmadcow
Жыл бұрын
People have but it is totally not recommended. A 31" tire has already caused my tailgate to sag to the point where I did a spare tire delete.
What happened to making this a mini truck…?! 😃
Need to unhook the sway bars for a smoother ride.

Not necessarily smoother. Just more capable over uneven terrain
