I was on my way to meet some friends and saw a lifted Renegade on the West Side of Hamilton at the Skyline Chili. I wanted to take a look, but didn't have time. Looked like stock wheels with MTRs and it appeared to be the cactus green color, but it was completely covered in mud. Couldn't see through any of the windows. I've never seen another modified liberty around town, anyone know of such a Jeep in my area? |

Swap Thing's got a nice rig! I'd like to know how that lift was accomplished. Looks much taller than most KJs. |

Hey. That's it! I guess they weren't MTRs after all... That think looked like a jeep commercial when I drove by. |

He's claiming 5.5" of lift, as is Perro Bravo, and sporting 33X11.50 Thornbirds. Look at all the space in that front flare! meh_kick, track this guy down and see what he's got under there, and take a camera with you!

Yeah. It looks like he did the same as "PerroBravo" (cardomain, not LOST). Put a Rusty's suspension lift together with a spacer lift for 2.5" + 2.5" of destruction.... I'm thinking of setting up a Cardomain name just to contact this guy and meet up with him. Or to invite him over to LOST... |

From everything I've read, it seems like he would barely be able to drive down the road with out ruining his front end, let alone wheel that thing! (it does look pretty clean) unless he has some miracle solution under there...and if he does, then everyone needs to know about it!! |

Not sure if you all can read my messages on Cardomain. But I did get a hold of SwampThing and we're going to try to meet up some time in the next few weeks. He's extended the invite to any one that would want to meet locally on a weekend. swmpthg wrote: there is a pretty nice spot to go across from pyramid hill on 128 or B st. that where i took some of my pics. We need to get together and i will show you what my lift consists of to get the a 5.5 lift. I will talk to you soon on here i should get my new wheels this week my buddy with the silver wrangler will go too if you have any of your buddies with a rig bring them too.
Any interested parties? |

The Suspension!.... Just have him help you turn it over, so you can get good clear pics of everything.
