Migrating my build thread from NAXJA. Should have done this a long time ago. There’s been a lot happening this year so no better time then now. I get way more community/Tech support out of the NC4x4 family hands down anyway.
Quick synapses of where I started vs where I’m at..
2000 XJ that used to be my daily gone rogue after catching the "go fast bug" with ECORS and then Pro Rock Racing started an endurance series. Fell into that trap now here we are 5 years later.
Currie Pro Rock 44 up front and 8.8 in the rear. Still narrow. ARBs, 4-Linked front and leaf rear. Chopped up a little and some cool kid shocks, 35’s, stock 4.0, nothing super special going on. Its’ a “Stock” class rig more or less. Pro Rock Stock, but too kinky when compared to U4 4600 rules. I Self Identify as Sportsman Stock Class by todays standards with U4 or whatever the conglomerate ownership it is now.
You can view the build up to now over on NAXJA by clicking here. Progress forward will be documented in this thread.
My intent this year is to clean the body up and address a lot of issues, or half-assed work, that came from racing, destroying, fixing repeat for a few years. 2023 I intend to race in something, maybe only one race, maybe three. Who knows. Darkwater 100 was cancelled this summer, so now I have nothing but time. Been entertaining the thought of TREC in October, but its quite the haul for me. Thankfully @ghost offered up some shop space for me to work on this. Currently do not have a shop to work out of, and probably won’t for sometime thanks to the housing market..which hopefully will change soon
Picture dump to get this thread rolling.
