Just found a BDS kit on the marketplace, based on a cursory look on the forums BDS seems like a pretty good brand? ...“3 1/2 bds lift kit not ad a leaf with jks track bar $500” seems like a decent deal? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

As far as what I was going for, I was going to do a 3” coil and ACOS coil spacers in the front for a total of 4.5” (to allow for ARB bumper and Winch weight adjustment) Then in the back I was going to do a 3.5” full leaf pack with a 1” shackle. Since shocks go hand in hand…I was going to do...

So I’ve done some reading on spring rates and gathered this information…. sorry I should have been better about recording sources but some of its from good ol NAXJA some from other forums… So here are some of the options I’m looking at, stock springs are 180lbs per inch (for comparison) Iron...

Long overdue update: So I did end up ordering the IronMan4x4 Steering box brace, spacer, and swaybar drop bracket. before I worked on that install I was doing a brake job (they were baaad) then had 2 bad wheel studs, so thinking preventive maintenance I decided to replace the hub instead of...

ok had my friend come by and take a look at the Ol Jeep and turns out my whole steering box is loose against the frame, but the 3 bolts are all as tight as they can. he suggested maybe just add a thick grade 8 washer to each of the bolts so it will tighten up. (already ordered replacement...

Well tightened up the Allen head at the top of the steering box per Matt’s Bleepin Jeep video and test drove.... Steering seems slightly improved but lots of clicks and pops even on a gentle curve... like it sounds like something is getting ready to fall off... prob not but that’s how it sounds...

well won't be able to work on the Jeep for a few days due to schedule despite the fact that its beautiful outside. but heres my to do list before I lift... 1. fix loose suspension... my friend suggested I should resolve base issues before I lift so we wont be trying to track down new vs old...

well came home to a flat tire yesterday, went to pull the jack out and had a stuck hatch, pulled the trim out to unlatch and it hadn't come apart like the last one so I pulled it spread some white lithium grease in there and its smooth now. I had already purchased replacement hatch struts b/c...

But straight into the issues Driving it home the steering was very soft, and not quick to respond but wasn’t too worried about it as all those pieces would get replaced when I lift. But almost home in my neighborhood I was going downhill and I let off the gas completely (It has dummy gauges...

hello all, I've had a few years off from Jeep life, the Sparhwk (99 Cherokee, 3” lift & 33s) was totaled a few years ago, I saved the drivetrain to put in a new body pulled the engine apart and life just got it the way and the roller I found to swap the engine into had its fair share of...

that is a great looking rig, I love the briarwood / xj wagoneer! don't cut up the body for tires! I had a 3" with no SYE, drop pitman or tcase drop and didn't have any suspension issues as a DD.
