Best place to get the Plugs is a Junkyard or dealer.

There's a whole permanent thread of lift/wheels/tires posts. Quit clogging up this thread and wasting bandwidth asking the same question that has already been answered 1,000 times at least.

RESEARCH! Quit taking the lazy way out.

U mad bro?
It was a joke pertaining to the thread jack.

To the op. that ain't safe! Lol
I just replace the lower mounts on a buddy's zj. Easy to remove and replace.
But if you welded it make sure it is a very temp fix. A buddy of mine lost his xj to a lower mount shearing off while driving down the road. He hit a power pole. No good.

TY. I'm glad someone got it.


If you look, I did compare bent LCA mounts and gave him a link to replacement heavy duty mounts. I was LOLing at the thread hijack and playing along.

Either way, he got an answer he wanted and welded it as a temp fix while waiting for his replacements to get there. So the thread is mute, why not have fun with it. :P

U mad bro?
trolololol....

On top of that I have no turn signals now, no brake/ reverse lights, no tach speedo or fuel gauge. But On a better note, I welded the mount that broke off my Exaust, leaving a dime sized hole, she sounds greeat now

You don't need any of that if you keep it off-road.

Just take an extra 20 liters or so of petrol with you.
