Run longer springs, either...

Rear-up-front/CJ front-in-the-rear
or
YJs all around

For one, it's ZUK NOT SUKhttp://www.rx7club.com/forum/images/smilies/Freak_anim.gif

The first thing that I did was to put 4 sets of leaf springs from an early 70s Jeep Wagoneer under it. That involved extending frame 3 1/2 inches front and rear to accomidate for the longer springs.
The Zuke rides like a Caddy on the street.
Pics are on my web page.

Hope that helps

you need a hover conversion.

Go ahead and get good shocks, not the weenie stock replacements. Any type of lift or suspension mod will require it.
Get longer and stronger shocks and enjoy a better ride even before your start building.

I made the front and rear mounts on mine with my limited fabbing and welding skills. fab your mounts, measure and then go get the shock that works.

I tried the hover conversion, but only works for about 0.8 seconds and the landing is Beeyatch.

Get rid of the stock seats, just about anything is better.
