I will need help with Cooking, and need grills and tables (big).. "Wanna a be a BBQ hero?" bring a grill Also, need some one(s) to work the ramp.. (Hackle??)

I have just picked up a 91 wrangler which I am going to lift. I am interested in a 4" to 6" suspension lift. I want to install a 4" spring lift and reverse the shackles. If I am correct in my terminology this means placing the springs on top of the axle housing as opposed to leaving them under. Can anyone tell me the advantages and or disadvantages of doing this? Are there kits available to perform the reverse shackle lift? What do you recommend?

Subject: [TR] Trip Report - Tin Can Alley - Saturday, January 18, 2003
Hello All,
Stu Olson lead a trail run Saturday, January 18, 2003 across Tin Can Alley
Wow....what a turn out! I believe the count 16. 15 SWB and 1 LWB. I pulled off the highway onto the Haul Road and there was already 8 or 10 vehicles prepping. We aired down, had a brief driver's meeting, and then hit the trail.
What we hadn't planned on was some type of OHV event (quads and motorcycles) running the same trail we were going to be on. All in all, it went pretty well. A few of quad/bike owners need a lesson or two on trail sharing, but the rest were curteous. I am thinking that when a Jeep has pulled over to the side of the trail to allow the faster OHVs to pass, the OHV driver should not nail the throttle once they have just cleared your front bumper....what do you think? Watching the stones and rocks fly is NOT cool, in my opinion.
One of the TJs had a rear locker problem at the first obstacle. His passenger rear tire did not appear to be getting any power. Although the bypass was attempted, the TJ would push itself off the trail to the right with the slight off-camber slope and the extra drive power from the passenger side. It was decided to call it a day and not chance a worse situation further down the trail.
We stopped for lunch part way through the tail, leaving room for the OHVs to get pass us. There isn't much room on these ridge top trails, that is for sure.
After a nice lunch (beautiful weather and all), we started up and headed for the finish line. Since we made much better time than expected, it was decided to head back to the air up spot while making a detour to a small rock out cropping. Many played on the rocks, all taking turns trying different lines and techniques. I believe those with the lower gearing and/or higher clearance were the ones making less "noise". Plenty of pics were being taken so I assume some of them may find find their way to a mail link.
Upon wrapping up the side excursion to the rock pile, we headed back to the highway, aired up, and said our goodbyes. While some of the faces were familiar and others were not, I had a great time and look forward to sharing another great day with you folks again!
Till next time!

Subject: [Tech] 1992 Wrangler - Coil spring lift conversion from leaf spring lift
I am looking for information on kits and feasability of changing the suspension on a 92 wrangler from the leaf spring suspension to a coil spring suspension. What all is involved? What kits are available? What is the cost? How much conversion time is required? Does this conversion require professional welding? Any information or previous experience is appreciated. I will take the leaf lift from the 92 and install it on the 91 mentioned in my previous inquiry.

John, If you want to use my Jeep as the Demo vehicle while you weld in the front part of the cage, I would be willing to volunteer it.

If you have a soa you probably get a lot of axle wrap. This is
another good idea that may be even better than the standard trac-bar

Subject: [TR] Trip Report - Tin Can Alley - Saturday, January 18, 2003
Hello All,
Stu Olson lead a trail run Saturday, January 18, 2003 across Tin Can Alley
Wow....what a turn out! I believe the count 16. 15 SWB and 1 LWB. I pulled off the highway onto the Haul Road and there was already 8 or 10 vehicles prepping. We aired down, had a brief driver's meeting, and then hit the trail.
What we hadn't planned on was some type of OHV event (quads and motorcycles) running the same trail we were going to be on. All in all, it went pretty well. A few of quad/bike owners need a lesson or two on trail sharing, but the rest were curteous. I am thinking that when a Jeep has pulled over to the side of the trail to allow the faster OHVs to pass, the OHV driver should not nail the throttle once they have just cleared your front bumper....what do you think? Watching the stones and rocks fly is NOT cool, in my opinion.
One of the TJs had a rear locker problem at the first obstacle. His passenger rear tire did not appear to be getting any power. Although the bypass was attempted, the TJ would push itself off the trail to the right with the slight off-camber slope and the extra drive power from the passenger side. It was decided to call it a day and not chance a worse situation further down the trail.
We stopped for lunch part way through the tail, leaving room for the OHVs to get pass us. There isn't much room on these ridge top trails, that is for sure.
After a nice lunch (beautiful weather and all), we started up and headed for the finish line. Since we made much better time than expected, it was decided to head back to the air up spot while making a detour to a small rock out cropping. Many played on the rocks, all taking turns trying different lines and techniques. I believe those with the lower gearing and/or higher clearance were the ones making less "noise". Plenty of pics were being taken so I assume some of them may find find their way to a mail link.
Upon wrapping up the side excursion to the rock pile, we headed back to the highway, aired up, and said our goodbyes. While some of the faces were familiar and others were not, I had a great time and look forward to sharing another great day with you folks again!
Till next time!

Yeah... you need to bring your own supplies... 4 batteries, 5 sets of jumper cables, and a couple coat hangers. The rest of us who don't burn holes can opt. to use the machine :)
