Have you always dreamt of desert racing but couldn’t afford it? The Jeepspeed Challenge may be the hot ticket into your dream seat. In three simple steps you can be out there racing in one of the biggest classes running. Step one: find an ’84-to-’01 Jeep Cherokee XJ (much like this ’92) online, anywhere from $500-$2,000. Step two: take your truck to the guys at T&J Performance in Orange, California, and drop about $10,000 in parts on their Jeepspeed Products Kit. Step three: sign up for a race and go for it!

4Wheel & Off-Road – Hydraulic Bumpstops

Neat New & Basic

Like any other act of evolution, your suspension can only stay the same for so long before you start tinkering. Whether it be a bolt-on kit or a custom job, you’ll probably look and (if not immediately) eventually find little ways your spring stuff can be improved. One of the biggest little improvements we’ve experienced a before-and-after with are hydraulic bumpstops. Hydraulic bumpstops like these Bilstein units (or air bumps as they are inappropriately nicknamed) have large shafts that can travel 4 inches up into their own bodies before stopping. They are pressurized with nitrogen (via a Schraeder valve on top) to your desired rate and get progressively stiffer as they compress and the cavity above the bumpstop’s piston gets smaller (creating greater pressure to deflect the compression as it compresses). And, no, we really can’t make a comparison with urethane bumpstops: they’re not even in the same league.

Hydraulic bumpstops were derived for the race scene, but in the last five or so years have made an exaggerated leap in placement on off-road toys and street-legal trucks that are greatly benefiting from the extra mod. T and J Performance has seen this trend and responded with reasonably priced hydraulic-bumpstop installation kits for the popular XJ Cherokees (and Comanches) that everyone seems to be buying up nowadays. We went to check out a front kit being installed. Though the kit is very simple and straightforward, it’ll require some welding skills to place.

Jeepspeed Adds to the Fold

From the October, 2007 issue of Off-Road

By Kevin Blumer

Photography by Kevin Blumer

“Like sequels to a successful film, Jeepspeed’s lineup has expanded to include several additional Jeep models. Have you got an old J10 pickup that’s begging to get flogged in the dirt? Jeepspeed’s got a class for that. Has the new-car smell long since wafted away from your Grand Cherokee, making it ripe for a rebirth as a racer? Jeepspeed’s got a class for that too. Finally, if you’ve got a TJ Wrangler that’s begging to go faster, you’ll find a newly built home for it in the Jeepspeed series.”

1986 Chevy Blazer Military M-1009 Commercial Utility Cargo Vehicle

(CUCV pronounced “cuck-vee”) ¾ Ton, 24 Volts

The M-1009 is a Commercial Utility Cargo Vehicle (CUCV pronounced “cuck-vee”), a military modified Chevrolet/General Motors Model K10516 Blazer with a 3/4 ton rating. The CUCVs were an attempt by the U.S. military to use COTS (commercial, off-the-shelf) vehicles with minor modification in non-combat roles. This effort to save money was not very successful and eventually all CUCV units where replaced by HMMWVs.

The M1009 was produced for the U.S. military from 1983 to 1986. The M1009 differs from the civilian Blazer in that it has a heavier spring in the suspension and has no air conditioning. The electrical system is a hybrid 12/24 volt, with most of the truck running on GMC OME 12 volt electrics, but the glow plugs, the starter, and the military slave cable jack are at 24 volts. The M1009 has a pair of 12v alternators and batteries wired in series to supply the 24 volt circuit. The glow plugs are standard 12 volt plus wired through a bank of resistors to run properly on the 24 volt side.
