Bad324 Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 (edited) You should replace "Cleveland" with "ghetto" and you have every major metropolis.

motocat12 Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 (edited) Anyone ever see any post accident photos of dubs? With a useless bumper (and chit visibility)seems like they'ed hack straight into a sensible car's cabin. I guess it would be the same as a lifted 4x4.

magley64 Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 Iirc there are "bumper" laws for cars in Ohio, states your bumper must be within a certain range of height from the ground. I seem to also remember trucks being exempt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you read that pdf, it says the knuckle spacer on the lift kit failed, which caused braking imbalance and caused braking to be affected... It says the mfg took a 3.2Mil settlement for their liability.. So that's more to do with a faulty product than anything... It did say the bumper struck above the safety bars in the door, which would have occurred either way... Interesting read Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scruit Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 This doesn't really have much to do with your initial question...

It says the mfg took a 3.2Mil settlement for their liability.. So that's more to do with a faulty product than anything... It did say the bumper struck above the safety bars in the door, which would have occurred either way... Interesting read It's a bit of both. I believe the override of the safety beam due to the height of the bumper was part of the problem (driver's liability) and the knuckle failure causing loss of braking was the other part of the problem (manufacturer liability). Failure of the knuckle on an appropriate-height vehicle would have been mitigated by the safety systems in the jeep - and the high of the bumper would have been mitigated by fully functioning brakes. With my Bronco the only thing I did to raise it up was bigger tires - that adds like 2 or 3 inches to the bumper height - I'm still well within the legal bottom-of-bumper height for this weight class vehicle. Even then, if I get rear-ended by a sloping-nosed vehicle like a corvette or miata it'll miss my bumper and hit my fuel tank skidplate. I'm looking at my options for a quick-adjust setup for the bumpers - lower on road, but easy to raise for improved approach/departure angles off road.

redkow97 Posted September 6, 2015 Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 V6 Auto....the best one!If it's the old 4.0 V6, that's basically a truck engine anyway. For those wheels, it's probably not the worst choice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
