Hey guys!
First time poster, long time lurker. I'm currently deployed to Afghanistan and looking to throw some money at my dd XJ while I'm here. I've got a Cherry 2000 XJ. I'm no stranger to the XJ. Just want to clear a few things up. I'm talking to a shop down in tampa to do my build so i dont have to worry about my Jeep being down while I'm home. They want 2700 to do a 6.5 BDS long arm set up. Installed. SYE w/ tom woods drive shaft for 900, and 4.10's for 1200. The guy at the shop claims you need 6.5 at least to clear 33x12.50's. I know this is not the case. Plus this guy is scared to cut anything. I'd really like to be running a 5-5.5 inch long arm kit. I know how the flordia guys are. Everything is flat and strait so they jack everything up sky high. I've also been looking at IRO's 5.5 inch Radius arm set up. So any recomenations for a long arm set up while I'm in the planning stages? Keeping on road drivability is a must. Thanks for all your help in advance!
