Its nothing fancy under the chassis, just a junk yard race motor that needs better suspension to keep up with it! I appreciate the advise you have given me throughout a lot of my suspension upgrades that I should have done at this stage. Ill probably do everything the first time when the LJ...

Ill look more into the RJ coils and recessing the mount in. The free length being 2-1/2in larger before sacrificing the 1in looks like a solid option and I can move the JKS to my LJ.

Ideally would keep it no change in height.

They can be added on later by accutune but for like $300/ea.

Rear spring are going in this week but with the uncorrected perches. Ill be doing that with the OB job, but it sounds like that would not affect ride height at all.

That what I was thinking but could not find an answer on how people were getting 12in travel at all. I tried finding the longest free length 3in rears I could and JKS was the only one not discontinued or what seemed like perpetual back order that is on the excel spread sheet found somewhere on...

I am now in the planning and parts procurement stage of an outboard job for my go-fast TJ possibly with a rear non-triangulated long arm. The shocks to be used are ideally 12in Fox 2.0 CD adjustable shocks and looking at using Poly towers, JKS 3in springs and relocating the upper spring perch...

So I thought I would put my thoughts out there since I have had all 3 on the same TJ. I started with the KYB Monomax and I did not like them at all, way too stiff and got rid of them pretty quick for Ranchos. While running the KYBs, I was stock height the whole time and only really saw on road...

Indeed, between Dayton and Columbus

Installed some custom sway bar disconnects on the Heep

It does not. I cycle tested a few times, even with Swayloc and shocks disconnected the tire is still spaced out far enough from the hose. My only concern is the hose touches the tower. I know its braided, but I might add some extra protection.

Great recommendation! I need to modify them a little further since there are some bolt holes I use that it blocks but it gets the job done. I still wish the hose was longer but I can address that when it comes time for a rebuild or having them tuned.

I started with no lift of any kind. However, my biggest interference is exhaust to front drive shaft which I ran without one for a year so it was a non-issue at the time. When I got the front DS installed, I still ran it for a few months both on and off road and the exhaust slowly just self...

To follow up now that I am home from my dune trip. Got the front track bar completely removed and had to use a big wrench and pipe to remove the frame end joint. Threads were apparently fine so I did not need to wait for a tap but glad I played it safe regardless. Having the threaded stud...

That is hopefully the goal soon to outboard the rear for sure. Considering the fronts, but not definite on that yet. I got a summer packed full of fun with the TJ the big stuff will happen over next winter.
