Jim Westling's 1989 4X4 |
|
|
Engine: Stock 2.9L K&N air filter AGR high pressure power steering pump Transmission: Stock 5-speed Transfer Case: Atlas II 4.3:1 (the best upgrade so far!) Rear Axle: Dana 35 with 4.56 gears and Detroit locker Front Axle: Dana 30 with 4.56 gears and Lock-Rite locker Warn hub conversion Heavy Duty front & rear driveshafts - Yarman Driveshafts 33x12.50 Super Swamper TSL Suspension: Rear: 6" lift, blocks and extra leafs Front: 6" lift, custom leaf spring conversion Body: Home-made steel rocker panel guards (repeatedly tested for durability in Moab) Custom full-size roof rack Front and rear winch mounts (no winch yet) This rig has been very reliable through many miles of off-road exploration and organized trail runs in California, Utah, Colorado, Wyoming, Oregon, and Washington. The next serious upgrade will probably be a 302 engine swap (the 2.9L has a little trouble pushing the 33's on the highway).
