THis gained me an inch of lift while not effecting the drop because my old idea was to tub the rear wells and go lower. So all this time my bags never were fully compressing when laid out. THe tires would stop when they hit the inner fenders.
I am all that is man
Looks good.....Now just shave those door handles and you'd be set!!!
Just Wait and See..........
No shave. THis is a dialy driver and wont be seeing much of any more mods ever.
A friend of mine is putting his door handles back on after having to many problems.
Not something I want to risk having go wrong later.
I am all that is man
hehehehe...glad u went back

No shocks out back yet.
Common sence will tell you that no shock made for a J will work seeing as how most cant go lower than 1.5" let alone 6" on a regular basis.
I threw the stockers in once just to see how low they would go and with no bumpstop on it was about one inch higher than it sits now when all the way down.
Im looking at dif brands of drop shocks made for trucks. I will most likely have to build new upper mounts that will be welded to the side of the wheel well.
I cant seem to find a shock that will bolt in the stock location and have enough travel to let me lift all the way up yet not bottom out when I drop.

ESB- what did you use for the spacer up front? i have mine apart to get rid of the noise and this would help a lot. thanks alot.
No offense bro, cause I like you and all...
but how many posts about your gd bags are we going see?
Lets see you do some custom work like fab some way to ride bags up front, rise your strut towers, something, that'd be interesting.
In my time on JBO i think i've seen more pictures of your car than i've seen my car in person.
<3 u.

^ You derive i'm the only one that cares because you have a different opinion than me?
I love it.
I'm not going start.
TO everyone who cares
If you do not like seeing pics of my car. Get over it. DOnt click on my post.
IM a pic whore. I take lots of pics from lots of angles that I wish others would do also.
It bothers me when someone post one or two pics of there car from sh!ty a$$ angles so you cant see crap anyway.
Phewes-Thank you.
If all I got was replies like Spartacus then I wouldnt post near as many pics as I do.
BUt my car seems to get pretty good revues. Its not as wild as many out there. ANd I dont want it to be. I like my clean look. THe most you will ever see on the outside is maybe a new hood. BUt im sure many like the clean simple look I have.
c cooper- for a spacer up front I used radiator hose from a semi truck. Its all I could find around my garage. I cut it up into strips that would sit between each stud. Its not what I really want to do but its all I had for the time being.
WHat I realy want to do is find a huge mudflap and cut out a ring from it. It would be alot cleaner looking.
I am all that is man
alrite, thanks alot man. definatly better with the bags.
I'm not saying your car isn't nice, or wild enough, cause yours is the same as mine, nice and clean.
Im not mad at you Spartacus.
Like I siad. I like pictures. I wish others would post more also when showing there cars.
I am all that is man
clean an simple is the way to go.... i considered shavin door handles but it was too risky as my cav is a daily driver too. so i jus decided to shave the locks instead. i love ur car man, there could never be enuff pictures of yours or anyone elses car. pictures rule
