I learned one thing early on in racing... You can make anything fit anything, just depends how much you wanna play with it... I don't see why you can't make them work, I'm guessing the two hoops are for the B-pillar and behind the rear seat?
If you have a decent welder and some patience I don't see why you can't cut and sleeve the tubing to fit your particular needs.

Wicked XJ, I was wondering what you used to lift you rig. I was looking at the Rough Country 6.5 but is there a better (cheaper) way? Any Pics?

ya i used first 3.5 with a bb

look for used 4.5 in lift and add a bb instant 6.5 then get a hack n tap from iron rock with a front ds.

Thank you for your time but I am Kinda new to Jeep. Could you (If you have time) explain that in english. I think I understand the springs from a yj but what is used for the rear leafs? What about the control arms and etc?? Thank you. I would like to do the build in peices if I have correct info.
