are you trying to compete with Mr.Henry for lift and mods ?

doublej · « **Reply #2 on:** October 21, 2008, 07:15:44 PM »

not sure who Mr.Henry is, if im being forced to keep up with anyone it would be KingCJ
it isnt gonna be alot of lift if thats what you mean, gonna stay as close to stock as the 404s will let me with alot of up travel.

JJ I believe there is a plan for the 1st/2nd Nov for a visit. Warthog has been organising as I have been a little busy. Looking forward to it though mate. :lol:

doublej · « **Reply #14 on:** October 23, 2008, 05:37:46 PM »

Yes 1st and 2nd, will be great to see ya again, hopefuly not the last before i have my "vacation". And the help is always appreciated.

I NEED Team Monkey stickers or at least print out so Stacia can cut them out. Actually if you can do me a print out too, mama can sew them into shirts or something too.

Bubba · « **Reply #15 on:** October 23, 2008, 07:00:48 PM »

thats gonna be monster how you gonna overcome the compound low ratios of them axels

doublej · « **Reply #16 on:** October 23, 2008, 10:30:47 PM »

there aint no compound low ratios - thats a myth :-D

just stick big tyres on and go play

honestly playing in two different mogged rigs, we bomb around all the time.

Bubba · « **Reply #17 on:** October 25, 2008, 12:57:21 PM »

dunno kings seems to need a lotta revs to get any wheel speed i know folks keep trying to go slower n slower for inching over what they tern technicle section but there are a lot of times where wheel speed is a deffo advantage i only mention kings as i have now at last seen it itss uber cool but i have been looking at some chalenge vids and ther seems a few that are so low geared that they may as well have a lawn mower engine for the amont of power they are able to use 40 million revs and 3mph seems a strange route to go use does anyone use a three speed transfer case maybe

doublej · « **Reply #18 on:** October 25, 2008, 06:10:24 PM »

rev wise hell have to chime in and answer, but i know power wise, it has never hurt him. thats the only department i might have to do some catching up. Some of what you might have seen with kingcj also is the fact that he doesn't change gears a lot. he picks a gear that he thinks is best suited and stays with it for the most part. i know when i drove his jeep, i kept wanting to shift all the time, and hes just learned to live with it.

at the end of the day, whatever you have to do to make the drivablity how you want it, is worth it to me to use the mogs.

well said....

Bubba · « **Reply #20 on:** October 25, 2008, 07:02:30 PM »

i do take ya point dood not knocking a good thing but there is folk out there on some of the chalenge sites they enter some deep gooo engine flat out and the wheels hardly turnning then the runners out with line faster than you can say bogger
maybe they got the gearing but tackle mud with there rock vision goggles on

Nosebolt · « **Reply #21 on:** October 25, 2008, 07:15:13 PM »

this is all very technical, but I am still waiting to see this monkey JJ has on his back.

....I like monkeys :-D

isle of man · « **Reply #22 on:** October 25, 2008, 07:15:41 PM »

rocks and portal box's don't mix - it was a fad in amarica sometime ago it's topsy turvey technology

Bubba · « **Reply #23 on:** October 25, 2008, 07:58:56 PM »

i would love to see a jeep on rockwels over here mog axels would be easy to end up high and narrow wazzas dont look narrow i realy like kings but i feel he will develop his a lot more i have only met him once and i can see them cogs never stop in his head

Dana60's and Rockwells are scarce over on this little island. Mogs are easier to source and cheap. Volvo 303's work well too, but not cheap.

Well in favour of Mogs, KingCJ's truck laughs at some pretty large stuff at Kirton. Crawls like spider and i dont think he has smashed a portal gear set yet?

Previously punched the ratios in for Mogs running stock TJ running gear. AX15 Gearbox onto NV231 Tranny. The results are below:

44's at 2000RPM

Gear---High(1:00)---Low (2:72)
_______________________

1st >>>9mph >>>3mph
2nd >>>14mph >>>6mph
3rd >>>24mph >>>8mph
4th >>>35mph >>>12mph
5th >>>43mph >>>16mph
Rev >>>7mph >>>3mph

What Autobox do TJ's run? maybe the ratios in an Auto maybe a little better?

Keep up the work JJ 8-)
