It has already sagged an inch or so just sitting. I am pulling the body lift soon too. And Sillyneck and co are going to twist me up a cage!:D

I understand, my front is getting lower everyday, I have been considering lift springs myself when I swap axles, let us know how they work out for ya.

How much body lift? Probably be about right when ya drop the tub back down.

Mine too. I had my stock springs rearched 2 inches over. It sat level for a few days but now it sits an inch or two lower on just the driver side. Dont know why but its pretty gay. Gotta get new front springs thinking about Skyajcker 2.5's. How does it ride with the triangles springs :question:

They are not triangles. They are rough Country. And let me be clear. I built a "custom" spring pack. I used the main leaf from the lift springs and the rest of the pack is stock. The main leaf settled onto the rest of the pack and I ended up with about 2" of addl lift.
I still need drive shafts so I havn't taken it out yet, but those lift springs flexed real well in the good ol days. I have high hopes. I'll get some poser shots when I can.

Looks good dude. It's a good thing it wasn't that high when we put those axles in the back. Our backs would have broken :eek: :eek:

Hell yeah! It looks great but you need 38's or 39.5's.

Sell me the 35 Claws for Amanda's Toy:D

Might be just the excuse I need to get a lift for the XJ.
I have some 4.10's sitting around for it.

What size are those tires?

Perfect for the XJ!

I've got it! You give Josh your 38's, Amanda get's his 35's and you get her 33's! Yeah, that's the ticket! Works for me:D

HAHAHAHAHAHA UM No:D

I'm keeping the boggers for the CJ.
I have a detroit and the gears on order as we speak I have the bellhousing finally.
I'm starting to roll with the project again :D
Hopefully it will be trail worthy this year.
