Sinking Creek 4WD Association

Update: Picked up some 5150s for the front. Got the driver side slider 90% done. Still needs paint and I need to trim the front fender to match and finish welding some of the floor inside. Have not started on the passenger yet... Also picked up some iroks on beadlocks. Here are some pictures..I still need to trim some sheet metal . Hopefully going to 35 spline rear to handle the new treads and 5.13s front and rear

That's a big tire

Yeah right now with those wheels they are silly wide..Im working on getting them mounted on a different set to narrow it up a bit. I had to throw them on as is though to see how the looked.

They are for sale..buy them

Figured I would update this since I never got a chance too before the Rausch Creek this summer... Nothing to big but here goes



Built some adjustable front bump stop pads/coil buckets for the front and added some new bushings up top

Got new 12" 5150s for the front

DIY beadlocks and bias ply iroks

upgraded my rear axle to a nodular 35 spline third and went to 5.13s front and rear also finally install my rear pinion guard

35 spline moser shafts

after my booger welds failing at rausch i ground down and redid most of the mounts on my front axle..since I first built the front axle I have gotten much more practice welding and I think I have gotten better..only time will tell

Just a side shot. I did the cut and fold to the rear quarters just before rausch I dont really have any pictures though

I have 5.5" of up travel in the front and 5" in the rear currently.

Next on the list is to get some rear leafs out of a k5 blazer to stretch the rear back 2 inches, putting my wheelbase to 104-105". Then build some rear bump stops and most likely redo the rear shock mounts.

Also possibly this summer I can save up to build a cage and get some nice seats with harnesses.

Needs a rear bumper too..

No need for such fancy items

I meant to say half welded in cage, not painted with lots of surface rust with zero triangulation that better haha

But yeah stables I do need to build a bumper sometime when I can afford a nice piece of steel for it.

Love the stance!

Nice XJ, nice setup.

Thanks! I think its semi-low for an xj.

I think you should do smthn like this with the body to your jeep!!
