finally got some work done to my jeep, im no longer bottoming out my shocks, and my jeep is about 3 inches taller.

i copied crazyjim's idea for the rear bumpstops but i took a new spin on it. rather than attach the bumps to the axle i put them on the metal plate on top of the leaf springs. and up front i just got rid of the BPE's and poped in some coil spacers. sorry for not having picture im having problems with my phone. i'll have them ASAP.

Right on dude! Keep an eye on that metal plate if it's hanging over like I think it is. It will eventually bend.

Sweet.
Pics?

Swamprat · Apr 27, 2009

im not too worried about the plate bending, im worried about killing my little Dana 35.

and i'll go out tomorrow and buy a camera, i give up on my phone. thats what i get for buying used

fronts are stock, i should be running 6.5 up front and 5 in the rear. uhhh i think theres a 2-3" gap and the bumps should compress a good inch or two. and hell if i know i think there 3" or 2.5"

kmanxj5050 · Apr 28, 2009

ok thanks man

wered you get the rears from?

so no aftermarket bump in front?

Swamprat · Apr 28, 2009

kmanxj5050 · Apr 28, 2009

kmanxj5050 · Apr 28, 2009
