jwmyers23 Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 I noticed the other day that if I pull out of an intersection and I am heavey on the fun pedal that my Pathfinder will pick up either the front or rear tire. It depends on how the road is sloped. I do have my torsion bars cranked, Grand Cherokee springs out back, a 2 inch body lift, and my sway bars are connected when driving on the street. I don't have a problem with it doing that (its fun to scare the crap out of my wife now and then)I was just wondering if anybody elses does that.

jbdevega Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 never picked up a tire on normal road conditions. did you replace the shocks? I know a guy that use to have a issue like that because the shocks were not long enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MY1PATH Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 after I did my 3" springs in back my stock rear shocks would go CLACK after each bump as they topped out. It was not long b4 I heard PING CLACK CLACK CLACK. the internals had had it I was now riding and unchecked spring lol. I got some rancho's that are a few inches longer.

silverton Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Why are your wheels on jackstands? Shouldn't it be safely perched on the frame? Sounds like you have some rather unsafe working conditions... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 in 4L I can get both front wheels off the ground. I don't even want to imagine the stress on the drivetrain from that... I've had one wheel come off the ground because I turned it too sharp and gunned it on dry pavement, but it's really hard to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
