If your referring to me as much as i want to get wheels now (and trust me i really want to!)
This thing popped up its still in the making tho


Im gonna go for this so it wouldnt be smart for me right now to get wheels for the stock fenders.

Hopefully the dipped wheels will hold the urge for a couple of months. haha

The wheel gap was too horrendous for my liking, so I slammed it

Increased fuel economy due to better aerodynamics? hahaha

On another note, yesterday my passenger side door window randomly exploded while the car was sitting on jacks... I had no idea how this happened. Picked up a new window this morning from an autowrecker and installed it. This is such a freak accident - going to start rolling down windows before jacking up the car now...

Installed a clutch stop. I like it much better now.

Swapped back to street pads. I managed to melt all the black coating off the edge of the rotor that centric puts on to stop rust, it literally turned into a powdery white substance that looks like talc. Woops! :lawl:

Coolant change in the Cherokee, some jackass at Chrysler designed it so you have to rip the front end off to be able to open the drain petcock, brilliant.

fliptuner 06-03-2015 09:55 PM

Looks great. Where did you get them made?

is your doors misalign by any chance?

both my ef has certain degree of misalagnment on the door i guess due to years of slamming it by the previous owners. since the jack point is directly below the door, it is possible that it put pressure on the misalign door and thus pressure on the windows exposing an existing weakness in the glass and it finally give in?....

i means it seems impossible but what you describe seems impossible too lol

It seems totally possible with a frameless window, I know the doors on some of my vehicles are harder to shut when it's jacked up.

I don't think the doors are misaligned. I had a feeling it had to do something with jack points. Perhaps the manual windows were rolled up too much which created pressure and jacking up the car for a prolonged period of time could cause stress? I only jacked up the front end of the car. This is the oddest thing that has ever happened, but I'll take precaution next time to roll down windows FailFish
