I went to this last year at vir and we liked it so much that we decided to do it again. We were actually going to go out and do it in Vegas but my brother broke his wrist snowboarding so we had to push it back to the Alabama location. I highly recommend it if you want to improve your riding and want to get out on the track
Cons: not cheap

Re: James's 88 Yj
The shock mounts are mocked up in a place that will clear the tire at stuff and body at extension. The jeep will have to sit 9" higher then it sits on the jack stands at the ride height to have 6" of up travel. Higher then I wanted it to end up.
Passenger side still has 3" left of down travel to go
Upper mounts
Lower mounts
Ripped out the dash
Shock mounts will get boxed/reinforced when I decide I am tired of messing with them and just mount them where they are.

Re: James's 88 Yj
The pivot point of the shock needed to be higher so the relative movement between the shock and tire would be less in order to prevent the tire from contacting the tire at full compression.willhf1011 wrote:Out of curiosity, why so high off the axle tube?

Re: James's 88 Yj
Badass.. Front frame looks good as well. I will take the credit for finding those mofos.. If I had the coin I would have bought them myself and let them sit until I could run them without destroying my rig. Definitely a steal. Glad you picked them up.
