My other Jeep - 2.5 inch Frankenlift, MOAB rims w/ MTRs


Action shot in MOAB, Utah - 2006


Can't wait to see what I'll do to the JK.

 

Wow, I've never seen anyone doing anything interesting with a Liberty unless it had a solid-axle-swap. Nice to see that a guy bought one and really drives it.
Does it have any articulation in the front? Do you disconnect the swaybar? Did you work on the liberty yourself?
By the way, hello...
I'm new to this place as well. I don't have my new Jeep yet, but have had a few in the past. I'll build and wheel whatever I can...

 

There has been only a few libbys - probably 3 or 4 that have gone SFA - those are monsters - pretty nice set-ups.
On mine, when I wheel it, I never disconected the front swaybar at all - too much work - a quick disco was made by somebody but never got to put it in myself.
I also installed the lift myself - New front struts/springs, new rear shocks & springs too. The Frankenlift is an easy lift to put on because it comes all pre-assembled - front side - quick 4 hrs work.
I've been wheeling it since October 05 - at least once every Month or so. I belong to the L.O.S.T. club and we are pretty active here in the midwest. Been to Badlands, LBL in KY, Daniel Boone Nat'l Park in KY, and the most interesting of all of course MOAB, UT for our annual LOST Safary which usually runs the week after Easter Jeep Safary.
Why have a Jeep and not wheel it?
