Tommy's ZJ reincarnated into a CJ8

**Tommy** · 02-02-2009, 05:29 PM

Added some GENRIGHT protection to my scrambler this weekend. Thought I would share.

**easymunny** · 02-02-2009, 08:56 PM

Thats a dirty girl... very Nice

**Tommy** · 03-02-2009, 01:04 PM

Thanks. I haven't logged intot he site for some time. Sorry to all those I have not responded to in PM's. I have been working two solid months on this scrambler, and put together this trailer. I haven't had much time for web wheeling!!

**Tommy** · 05-11-2009, 08:51 PM

A couple PICS from my trip to Johnson Valley. Had to order ROCKCRUSHER diff covers as I can now see the ring gear of the 14B.

Oh, and I miss my ZJ...

**zj95maxx** · 05-11-2009, 09:00 PM

sweet man. Not as sweet as the zj though...

**Tommy** · 05-11-2009, 09:02 PM

I have something in the works to repalce my ZJ.

It will at the least have a WJ resembling front clip so I can still hang out here....

**zj95maxx** · 05-11-2009, 09:14 PM

Can I have your zj's coil overs ? <3

**Tommy** · 05-11-2009, 09:26 PM

LOL. Sorry, they are going on the new rig...

Fuck it. I am going to pick this rig up in June.... More pics and a build thread to follow when I get it home.

I have a few changes planned for it.

Those coil over brackets are BEEF

sickness!

what meats?

**Tommy** · 05-11-2009, 09:31 PM

It currently sits on 40” Maxxis CC's Comp compound. I can't wait to go pick it up and get started on it.

**DaveB** · 05-12-2009, 08:41 AM

I need some protection for my Scrambler, it looks like a twin of the blue one in the bottom picture.

**Brad S** · 05-12-2009, 10:08 AM

See aren't you glad I suggested that you go buggy

**ATL ZJ** · 05-12-2009, 10:43 AM

Gorgeous chassis. who built it? wheelbase?

**Tommy** · 05-12-2009, 12:05 PM

Thanks guys! I like the look of the chassis as well.

It is a modified Spirdertrax STX chassis. The wheelbase is currently set to 103". I would like to get it in the 106" to 107" range if I can. I think I need it a little longer to work well at the HAMMERS?

Want to run the Rubicon in June?

That would be fun but I would definetly need rocker and tail end protection. Here is a picture of mine. I could take my son's MJ that we just put in a HP 44 and my custom long arm kit.

If you are really interested I will PM you the dates. Let me know.

Built a spare tire carrier out of some scrap from the ZJ....

**zj95maxx** · 05-20-2009, 02:10 PM

How dare you scrap tube on the ZJ for this thing!

**Tommy** · 05-26-2009, 04:39 PM

More than just some scrap tube may find it's way into this thing. I have a fuel injected 5.2.... HMMM...

It will be a sad day when I cut up my ZJ and load it in the back of my pick up to be recycled.

I know, the thing that keeps me hanging onto my unijuggy is sentimental as much as anything else. Crawling over an obstacle remembering back about those times in high school and college with some girl, in this thing... haha

Oh did I say I am jealous of your chassis?

**Tommy** · 06-29-2009, 05:56 PM

Thank you for the compliments. I can't wait to get started on this thing. Meanwhile, the Scrambler got some new shoes. 4deeees. Stole them from the buggy. I want black powder coated ones for the buggy. These fit nice on my Scram.

**zj95maxx** · 06-29-2009, 05:58 PM

shit you're keeping both?

niceeeeeeeeeeeee

**Tommy** · 06-29-2009, 07:03 PM

Thank you.

Yep, keeping both. I need something that has four seats so I can bring my wife and two little girls. The Scrambler suits that job well. I can still wheel the piss out of it and drive it back. Plus I can cruise the mini malls by my house.

**Tommy** · 07-21-2009, 11:31 AM

Scrambler is getting a new motor. Maybe I will be able to add some actual tech during this swap. I need to order an advanced adapters transfer case adpter for my Dana 300 to 46rh. I have allot of wiring to go through....

**Tommy** · 10-05-2009, 12:23 AM

Poser pics from this weekend.

Rough/Expensive Saturday at the Garden.
1. Sheared rear output on D300
2. Front axle side yoke, broke in half.
