Started todo a write up for folding of rear quarters but then it started pouring out but heres a good start

Start by removing your rear bumper for easiest access then drill out the spot welds for the inner and outer fender skins

Then remove the bumper cover bracket thats riveted on by drilling out the rivets. And measure 4.5in from the furthest to the back of the xj body line down and make a mark. And 5 1/4 in from the body line right behind the tire down

Next using a straight edge connect the two marks you made making sure you have a solid line from edge to edge of the pannel

Then using a cut off cut a down the line which will separate the outter pannel next using a saws all cut across the same line separating the inner pannel as well

Next make a vertical line starting parallel with the lowest body line on the jeep(where you started your measurement for the 4.5in and 5.25in marks you made) except this line will be to the left of all the holes you drilled right in the curved corner. This line will go all the way down till you run out of body to make a line on. Then you will cut this. Then cut along the line where the outer quarter panel that folds around the back stops. This cut is also vertical. At this point you should have 2 vertical cuts with hole drilled all over in the middle. Now you will cut across the top too connect the two vertical cuts with a horizontal cut (this should remove the whole rear piece)

Well decided rather than peice together a long arm or pay 1200 for the full traction upgrade that i wanted then put full 6in coils in(i have 4 with a 2in spacer) put a full length add a leaf in the back to give it a little more life then order a pitman arm and all that, that im just gonna pull love you lift and buy a complete FT 6in long arm kit with springs and all the works.
