Reply:Very nice build... Now this is going into a jeep? Lol my goodness this is going to be a tight squeeze!! The weight on the front end... what type of Axles are you going to be running? I would suggest something on the lines of a Dana w/ 4.10 gears. Your putting a 5.5 lift on the front and rear correct? Is it going to be coil over springs? Do you know the Gross weight on that engine after its all said and done with your add-ons? You will have to cut your hood and put a very large Cowl on there. with real air intakes. I am sure you have measured your clearance?Last edited by AndrewDavenport89; 06-11-2015 at 02:25 PM.
Reply:Originally Posted by jbrThanks, to get the 3" of lift I need I think I will have to put 5.5" lift springs in but I will have to spend a little more time researching and doing the math, I plan on strengthening the frame in certain areas as well, if anyone has ideas please post them upI am using these springs from a 1979 broncoSent from my SM-G900V using TapatalkLONGEVITY 250EX w/ 25' weldcraft cs310 torchTorchmate w/ Hypertherm powermax 85   withFLASHCUT CNC PRO SERIES CONTROLS

Reply:Yea that springs right there will hold some weight lol(I am referring to the spring on the right). I forget, but the shock rides on the inside of the spring and it all sits on top of the front leaf springs correct? Have not looked at that model jeep in a long time. How much longer until you start working on the truck itself? You just about have the diesel wrapped up. Just a few more bells and whistles.

Reply:Originally Posted by MountaineerMetalThere are no leafs on a TJ, it is a coil spring setup, you would never have both as that would make for a very intersting ride with 2 springs constantly fighting each other and the shocks are outside the springs.
