    Right, cause the Golden Crack is such a hard obstacle
    I saw somebody try to jump it on a dirt bike once... went straight down into it, bike stopped moving when it hit the opposite slope and the rider didn't, smacked right into it. It was pretty damn funny... someone took a video of it, I'll see if I can dig it up.

    ETA: Found it!

    Not to mention it is a dumb picture to show off a lift (it is from a site selling a lift). Hard to tell when one tire is stuffed and the other is dropped all the way.

    EDIT: LOL, looks like someone forgot to stop preloading and actually pull UP.

    A pic like that is good for showing off a lift because it shows how well it can flex (which ain't very well, judging from that pic). A pic of it on level ground, and the size of the tires in the pictures, should be shown as well though.

    You beat me to it with your edit. IFS flex fail.

    Funny, I've never seen you post pictures of your Jeeps.

    IFS is plenty for anything I'll ever drive on.

    This guy designed some kit that links the torsion bars together and said that he was able to keep the tires on the ground better. Everyone got all excited about him selling it, then he sold his truck and dropped off the face of the earth.

    I was giving you a hard time since you always seem to have really long Ford trucks.

    That's because I'm compensating.
    And because while I love my Jeeps, I need truck beds and diesel engines to work, and need>want at this point in life.

    Here's a few of them that were on my desktop...

    My 79 CJ7 on 33's



    My 93 XJ Cherokee on 34's. Notice all 4 tires are on the ground... I love solid axles ....



    Then there was this thing. 88 XJ on 40's. Bought it for the nice parts it had (built rear 60, Super44 front, 4:1 tcase, Detroits on both ends, suspension, beadlocks, etc.), although it was put together by somebody that didn't know how to fabricate worth a damn... as shown by their innovative use of latex house paint on the body. Stuff came up and I ended up not having the funds to cannibalize it and build something out of the parts, so I sold it.



    Also in the family are a J3000 Gladiator, a J10, a FSJ Cherokee, and a couple more.

    I was looking at getting a Cherokee when I bought my Amigo, but I didn't find the right Cherokee in time.
