I know it's not a xj but it is gonna be my next project. It's a 93 sidekick and I got it running and out playing today. It flexes pretty good and I did add a emblem to the front grill so you guy's wouldn't get mad and call me a traitor. 2in spacers and a 3 in body lift is gonna get me started then I'm gonna put the 32 discoverers on it. It's gonna be a cheap build but something I can tow behind the xj.

looks good, that lil bugger.. My uncle used to have one for farm work. they were good for that kinda work.... also if you dont mind me recomending,, you can do an engine swap to a WV jetta deisel engine and run it on veggy oil like en extreme 4x4 on spike tv did..

Did you recently get that one? I dont remember seeing you posting pictures of it before.

Yea it's a new one., I think this one will make the cut though. Seems to get around good.

What are your plans for it?

I see it has a driver already. Just need to do your magic to it and then you got a built in wheelin' buddy. Kewl!!!

Here's a Geo(basiclly the same) I've seen wheel and it's a good one for getting the brain moving.

Details:
2.7L 190hp aluminum v6 (50lbs heavier than the old 4), 4 speed auto with lockup, dual cases now with a dana 300 (front dig), what should be a very neutral 4 link, sway a way air shocks, bump stops from a 1/2 ton chevy P/U, 102" wheelbase, a bigger fuel cell mounted in the tub, full autometer gauges, true to their size 37" sticky Trepadors, roll cage with the front half exo so i dont wreck the tub since it doesnt have replaceable pieces like a jeep or sami.

Post up some pics of the 4 door if you have them. Is that guy from any site we share?

nick_n_ii · 09-28-2008, 11:58 AM

the site is www.greatlakes4X4.com Good info but the guys on there are worse than the ones on Pirate4x4. This is the only pic of the 4 door I could find right now..
