HyLine Hemi Build

**TnTCustoms** · 10-16-2009, 12:50 PM

It's time for another great build by T&T Customs! I'm calling this one our HyLine Hemi build. You thought Cody's 40's on 4" were nice how about 42" MT/R's on 4.5"? To make it all the more fun this Jeep has already gone through AEV and had a 5.7L Hemi dropped in it

. Between the Hemi and the 5.13's in the ProRocks your face automatically goes

when you hit the gas! The Jeep currently sits on 37's and a RE longarm system. We are going to be upgrading the suspension with our Rock-Trek Long-arm Suspension, stretching the wheelbase front and rear, installing our HyLine Full Replacement Tube Fenders and HyLine Stretch Corner Armor along with our "Guardian" front bumper, rock sliders, tire carrier, replacement rear crossmember, etc..

Here it is..

37's rubbed on 5.5"

42's

The transmission is big and is running a deep pan so we'll be fabbing a custom BP for it.

On Cody's build we moved the the front axle forward to gain a couple more inches of wheelbase. We did this by rotating the steering box and moving the coil mounts on the axle along with some other modifications that I'll show later. His steering box was based off of a 4-bolt YJ box so all we had to do was notch the crossmember for clearance. This Jeep has the factory Mercedes style box which is considerably larger so just notching the crossmember was not going to be possible, it needed to be moved.
Before shot

After, using a new crossmember tube.

You can see how close the box is even to the new crossmember. We'll be making some plates to tie the new crossmember to the frame and to re-strengthen the frame rails and act as a steering box mount. I'm sure that you've noticed that the front tube is smaller than the factory one. We've been working with ORO on a custom mounting setup for their dual rate SwayLoc swaybar. Which we give a huge

to! We have been running the SwayLoc on a couple of our shop rigs and after running several other brands, it is by far our favorite setup, and is getting installed on the rest of our rigs.

Awesome. Can;t wait to see this one come together. Good work

It's going to be sexy as hell Rod. You need to talk the owner into doing the rear stretch corners with the wraparound flares. Those are amazing. Great job guys.
