Hey guys quick question... did a search with no luck.

Wondering what springs people are running to fit 35s? I have a TT YJ kit with missing links all around. I have very little trimmed and the sammy i have is MINT with low low miles so i dont want to cut it up....

I have 33s on it now with stock YJs .... should i go with some 2 inch lifted springs? Or some OME? or what?
thanks for the help...

also during this i will be putting yotas underneath it.
thanks!
cant wait to get started.
:D

i would rather stay away from blocks...... i have had some issues on my diesel with those.... i dont think i trust them with the punishment that i expect to put the sam through

I was told you can only do this if you paint the front fenders white:mr-t:

if your goin to bash your rig, why not just cut the fenders cause the body will get dented up if you plan on bashin it, and there goes that mint condition.

my 2 cents

I had stock YJs on mine with 35s. Open up your fenders, it can be done where it looks nice. The front is really the only ones you need to do so you can turn and stuff at the same time.

There's your problem. When was the last time you saw a "mint" samurai on the trail:flipoff2:? You should just trade for my dented up beater.:homer:

Well its a trail rig..... Wanna keep it nice. I got a bash buggy for the carnage.

will 36.5s fit on it with 1.5-2 inch lifted yj springs? I assume so.

part of the body is already cut.

ya the two inch springs will work just fine. do the yota IFS steering box at the same time. you will be much happyer with your rig.

Yea i plan on the yota steering box.

i just arent sure what size tires i want to run with 1.5-2.5 inch lifted yj springs....... Will a 37 fit?
irok 36.5?
I havent found many pics of zuks with bodies running much bigger then a 35.
thanks!

this is what I did and works great..... But would consider using 1.5 inch re spring over springs rather then 2.5 inch re spring under spirngs..
