Apparently the KJ Liberty uses the 8.25 factory rear end and the 2003 up disc brakes are a straight swap onto any other 8.25. Just have to find one in the bone yard!


opps didn't see #10 when I first looked at the brakes list.

 

I have ZJ shocks (1,5-2 longer) the front ones are bolt on, the rear will fit if you use the XJ pin that bolts to the body.

 

Ohhh, thought you were being sarcastic at first

 

Na lol not a huge fan of sarcasm, for the most part serious.

 

Really? i love sarcasm. Its the best way to tell how bright the person you're talking to is lol.

 

has any one does the thunderbird coil swap? im interested in doing this how does it ride? im assuming since they come out of a car they should ride alot nicer then then ones out of a F150 or Bronco.

 

I was going to try that just the other day. I purchased some S10 springs form a guy parting out his wreck. I went to 4 wreckers nearby and they all gave the same answer on the price of USED 15-20 year old t-bird springs
$100 for the pair!
I'm in the wrong business. Where else can you turn a $300 investment (going price for a clapped out car) into a $25,000 cash cow.
I need BAD a 8.25 3.55 rear end cause my ring is chipped. I can get it rebuilt for about $500 but the wreckers want $1000 for one. If I had the place to do it I'd buy my own wreck and sell off the parts.

Sorry Rant off!

If you find someone who's tried it let me know.

 

Aparently it doesn't matter. Just got a set off a blazer. Holy crap they're thick!

 

I want to find the leafs off of a ZR2 S-10 because they came lifted from factory with 31s I believe. Anyone ever used these leafs? If so how much was the gain then?

 

To bad your across the lake... I have one I'd give ya for 100....

 

the leafs from a zr2 are the same leafs as a stock s10 or s10 blazer the lift they have comes from the 3 inch hangers on the frame its like a stationary shackle on the front of the leaf springs

 

For a savings of $900 I'd drive to Buffalo!

Anyone in Michigan near Port Huron got one? It's only an hours drive away from me.
I would like to keep the 29 spline. No sense in going weaker than what I already have

 

Well thats no fun..

 

yea me and my brother have a '99, a '96, and 2 '91s so I know it doesnt look like they work....but if you pull out your old center console you will see that you only need to bend your e-brake lever a little bit or put a small spacer in there to move it over enough to fit the newer center console......i have a feeling that someone just did that in a build thread recently IIRC.....i havent done it yet but if i spill one more thing due to a lack of cupholders i'll have to lol

 

If you do the mod or know the person that did, I'd love to see pics so I can see what's involved in making the console fit properly. Thanks
