Does anyone know how much lift i will gain if i do an soa conversion using my 4" lift springs? I am also using a 3" body lift, could also use suggestions on slip yoke eliminators and extended drive shafts...
4"+ the axle tube diameter+heighth of spring pack= total lift. I am guessing between 6 to 8 inches.

don't forget the perches, if they stick above the axletube.

spring it over with the three inch springs, take off the BL and cut some panel if needed. thats a lot of freakin lift. (ive got a buddy with that exact setup) with 3inch springs soa youll have about 8inches. install some tj flares and flat fender the front. if your gonna run 42s you have to change your axles to something bigger, one tons minimum cuz there is no way a 44 is holding 42's much less a 30 and 35

3" of body isn't a lift. You've got 4" of lift and 3" of crap wedged between your frame and tub.
Ditch the BL and go SOA.

4" lift springs + SOA + 3" BL = :massey: lift
for full Massey effect keep stock axles and get some Fodees
but still there is the newbie section and now even the Jeep newbie section and this still ended up in general 4x4? Come on now....
i havn't heard that one in a quite awhile. somebody smells a little massey. and oooohhh 60's are so massey. or don't you want to touch my massey.

I love how you don't even mention what type of vehicle you have:laughing: :flipoff2:
Ditch the body lift, keep the springs under the axle, and buy a sawzall:grinpimp:
