Alright, I'll introduce myself here, my name is Tyler. I'm the owner/operator of Crawler Ready, LLC. Been building Jeeps for as long as I can remember with my family. Started with a '91 XJ when I was 15 and sold it in August 2006 to buy a 1995 Orvis 5.2L.

I pulled the ZJ in my garage in December of 2006 and pulled it back out beginning of Feb. 2007 with new axles, t-case, lift, tires, bumpers...figured I'd do it all at once this time. Sitting on 35's and 9.5" of lift (wasn't planning on 9.5" but the spring perches I used added 2.5" over stock) and to say the least I was fairly happy...HOWEVER before you flame me....it's now sitting on 39's and 6.5" of lift .

Any questions about it, just ask because I'm sure I left some out.

How it started.

Sweet man! I like the build...I'm in the middle of mine and puttin it on 38's. I like it alot though. The back hatch with the spare tire carrier is really clean lookin.

[zj95maxx]

[CANADIAN ZJ!]

Thanks man, it takes up some room for sure, but I still fit everything needed. ie tools, spare shafts, fluids etc.

ha yeah, finally....I decided now that I dropped it from the 9.5" height, maybe I'd be accepted

Let's see here...that I do

It's made of 5"x3"x.180(3/16")

Did you fab the suspension up yourself or is it a kit from someone? Can't tell from the pics.

Rig looks good! 6.5" of lift with 37's should work well.

It's the RK 7" LA kit (I know shoot me ). I got one HELL of a deal on it from a kid I graduated HS with and couldn't pass it up (~$1000 new). Cody on here is actually the one who finally convinced me to drop it a bit...to be honest, it was pretty stable at 9.5" with that sway bar....but I know I'll be much happier now!

[zj95maxx]

it's the RK kit

[ZJ Pappy]

Sweet rig man. Can't wait to see the cage getting built.

[CrawlerReady]

haha thanks Maxx

[CrawlerReady]

Sweet rig man. Can't wait to see the cage getting built.

Just waiting on the 1.5" die for the bender...I only have a 2" die right now that I used for my Exo-Cage on my old XJ. I figure 2" is a bit large for an interior cage though.

[ELLLLLIOTTTTT]

Nice rig but I would consider redoing the links and the "frame" brackets.

Nice rig but I would consider redoing the links and the "frame" brackets.

Links...as in...? As for the "frame" brackets, it's all sub-framed now and those brackets are part of it. I don't have any recent pics of that though. I'll get some soon.

[ELLLLLIOTTTTT]

Gotcha. I was referring mostly to the brackets because I have personally seen those brackets begin to rip out of the unibody framerail. What size joints are those?

BTW, I just noticed the color coordinated air tanks... PIMP!

[CrawlerReady]

They are actually still the stock joints that came with the RK kit...gotta redo that soon...

[Cue-Ball]

Looks great. I love the tire carrier although I am planning one to hang off my TR bumper.

But looks pretty clean, keep the pix coming.

[CanadaDry]

Clean looking rig guy, I like the Rodeo Dana 44 in the rear did you do a disc brake conversion on it? or do you still have the drums in the rear?

The front is from an '86 Waggy, rear is out of a '95 Rodeo, so it came stock with discs

[Hot Carl]

Very nice. That stinger doesn't really float my boat, but everything else looks good.

Just one question...in that pic, is it just me or is that lower, right link bent?

Yeah...stinger is going once the winch goes in . I originally built it just to tie in the exo cage, but now that I'll be doing an interior cage, doesn't serve a purpose.

"frame" end or axle end? I assume you mean axle end?....I think it's just the angle I took the picture at because it's not bent.

[ZJ Pappy]

Sure as hell looks bent to me.

[zj95]

MORE PICS Of SEATBELT BAR PLEASE!!.... I like it alot...

Hows it attached to the sides?

Nice rig... alot of cool idea's and very clean finished products

[CrawlerReady]

Well it sure as hell isn't...thanks though
