Default New shoes = better traction
Fenders rolled slightly, no rubbing issues. Noticeable improvement around corners and over potholes.


15x10 Centerlines + 35x14.5x15 SuperSwamper Boggers

BTW, I also did a RHD conversion. C&C welcome

I think you might have an alignment issue.

^^I wonder if that is BMW powered? I always like to say it's your car do to it what you want and support people doing that but I would never do that to a BMW...

I've actually been considering putting a BMW engine in my Jeep.
Its relatively light weight, revs good and vanos should make it a good off-idle performer. Especially if I have the cams re-ground for torque in the 2500 RPM range.

That or a V12 out of a 750IL.....
Would still weigh less than the 6 cylinder....

If I had the cubic dollars I'd find one of the new 3 series turbo diesel engines... "Im in love!"
