You would think it would, but probably not.
I think what would happen in that case is it would find the weakest points in the sleeve and instead of crumpling like they should it will just break clean in two with enough force.
I imagine the passengers would feel it more as well. You might not...
You can get a welder capable of doing work on doors for next to nothing. This little one I picked up just cause it was light and easily portable, plus dual 110/220 was about perfect for doing doors and I picked it up, sticks, gloves and helmet included, for $65 from a pawn shop...
coil spring, leaf springs, shocks, uca/lca, trimming, brake lines, hack&tap or SYE at minimum...
stock axles might get eaten by 35's if you don't know how to run it so a 44hp/9" would probably be in your best interests.
hold your old rotors up to the new ones and make sure the sizes are the same. If they are, then yes, if not, you may have to grind on the knuckle a little.
Axle shafts, maybe. Measure them with the old ones.
My dad just said "I hope you know how to put that thing back together... I'm not coming all the way out here to pick your @ss up every morning for work!!!"
Yes and yes.
Gears ran about $250ish each (front and rear), install quote from a local shop was around $250-400 each axle if I brought the parts and axle in already off the jeep.
I didn't really care about the water... I had just a little more space than yours. Took a BFH to it for about an hour and that closed up most of the gaps. Tossed some cauking (like that'll hold ;)) and drilled some drain holes. Haven't had a problem yet.
I'll be doing the same this weekend making a few packs. I can get S10/dakota packs for $35/pair here locally, so I'm going to go ahead and rebuild all 3 leaf packs while they're so cheap.
My main already has a RE 4.5" leaf pack, but I have blocks for now to get it up another 3" or so. So I'll...
Your unibody should be fine. Mine's been cut for a while with no problems.
I cut about 1/2-1" higher than you did, then just used a BFH to mash the inner and outer fenders together. Didn't bother welding, there's only a few small spots an inch or two long and maybe 1/8" wide, and nothing...
