Description: Vehicle: 2002, Jeep, Wrangler TJ


Owner: Bill Babnick, Albuquerque, NM.

Tires & wheels: 37 x 14 SS IROK's, on 15 x 10 Trail Ready Beadlocks
(Just mounted a new set of 37 x 12.50 Goodyear MTR's, will post a review on this tire after I test them. I haven't owned Radials in YEARS!)

Suspension: 6 inch SkyJacker Rock Ready Upper and Lower arms

Drivetrain: TeraFlex 231HD 4:0:1, Center Force II, Rock Crusher Dana 30 front with 30 spline Alloy shafts CTM U-Joints and Ected Locker with 4:88 gears, Dana 44 from 4-wheelparts Whole Sellers with 33 spline Alloy Shafts Detroit Locker Timkins, and Disc Breaks.


Performance: 4.0L with K&N FIR PK 2 Air induction, Power Aid Throtlebody Spacer, and dual Optima RedTops.



Other mods: Rock Hard 4x4 Full Roll Cage with frame tie-ins, Fab Fours Front and Rear Bumpers, Ramsey 9000 Plat. Winch, BomZ Racing Seats with Master Craft 5-point Harness, Best Top Soft top, Poison Spyder Custom Tube Fenders and Crusher Corners with 3" Flares, Windsheild Fog Light Mounts with Rally 180 watters, High Lift, SkyJacker Strap Grab Handles, a kickin Sony X-Ploid System, and a whole-buncha Stickers!

Does it work the way you want: Oh Yah!


Anything you would change: I don't know,... everyones going so over kill anymore.... I might go to a 44 front but I ain't broke that 30 yet!
I am going to go to 38 or 39 inch SS - TSL SX's or Boggers if these MTR's don't cut it. (Again, will post a review)


Funniest Wheeling Incident: Man thats a long story... Las Cruces Chilli Challenge 2007, (It Just happened) My buddy Stan broke his rear 35 Yukon Axle (PS: Never buy Yukon Axles). They go to town to get a new Shaft, and while they are gone we are trying to winch his jeep down off this big ole' hill, and the winch cable gives, and no ones in the jeep! BAM there goes his jeep backwards down this hill, bouncin everywhere, and we can't do nothin but watch it roll. Luckly it hit a big ole' rock on the rear diff, and stopped it about 3 feet from a 150 ft straight drop off. Bad news, I got stuck replacing the entire break assembly, axles, c-clips, everything... all done layin in the dirt with a High Lift holdin it up.


Anything to add? I got an AGR Rock Ram waiting in my living room to be installed... just haven't had time, and Tube Fender LED's from Poison Spyder Customs coming as soon as they release them (Waiting since November of 2006... Come on PSC).

PS: You'll notice the picture with Bigfoot. I was doing a concert for that dealership, and they let me pull up there with him. There are some perks to being a singer.

Pros: ALL I CAN SAY IS WOW! WISH I HAD YOUR JEEP!
Cons: NOTHING! THIS THING LOOKS PERFECT

THANK YOU FOR THE INFO AND OPINION ABOUT THE DANA 30 FRONT, AND HOW EVERYONE IS GOING OVER KILL. ALL THIS TIME I HAVE BEEN THINKING THAT I HAVE TO GET A RUBICON JUST FOR THE 44 FRONT, BECAUSE I WANT TO RUN 35'S. IF YOU AIN'T BROKE NOTHIN YET, THEN I THINK I WILL BE SAFE WITH JUST A OLDER TJ WITH A DANA 30. GREAT INFO!

Are you a factory guy? I have not seen this jeep in any of the Skyjacker adds... how come?

Seems some guy doesn't like Bill but that doesn't matter. All reviews are moderated and you're wasting your time bud. Bill's got a nice Jeep regardless if everything is a bolt on or not. Thanks for stopping by though! Wink

Pros: One cool cat

I have known this guy my entire life. He probably doesn't know I'm on here, but i tell you he's a straight shooter who knows his stuff. An honest guy who never lies. If he says it's worth it, it is!
