X's2 Very Cool

 

Thanks. For what it's worth, I have a big boy Jeep too:

'98 Jeep Cherokee Sport 2-dr, 4.0 liter I-6, AW4 automatic, NP231 w/ Terra 2-low, JE Reel driveshafts
37" Kevlar MT/Rs on 17" Walker Evans, ~6" lift using RE springs coils & leafs, Clayton Long arms, LII Traction bar, Currie Anti-Rock sway bar
Front: SpiderTrax 609, Crane Kingpin D60 knuckles, 35-spline Superior shafts, CTMs, Redneck Ram Assist, ARB, 5.13s in Superior aluminum 3rd member, Solid Axle 5 on 5.5 conversion
Rear: Superior Super Ford 8.8, ARB, 5.13s, Crane diff cover
1.75"x.120" Hybrid Exo cage with tied-in rocker replacements, tube fender flares and THOR taillight guards, Moab 4x4 bumpers, Warn XD9000i, VisionX lighting all over, etc...

 

Glad to see this thread up again.. I complete forgot about it..

But to add a few questions.. the approach that a plan to take on tackling the suspension.. am i going in the right direction? Cut coils in front and leaf under axle in rear?( the leafs will be brand new when i do the conversion)

Are there any suggestions you have or ideas regarding a better approach?

How many coils can i cut for maximum drop(looking to have it sitting right above the tire or slightly tucked) Also what shocks did you use in the petty machine?

I have one main concern about clearance from the control arm brackets.. its seem if i go down enough i will have issues of the bracket hitting the engine mount.

what would be the Over all difficulty of this project?

 

I went ahead a posted a very thorough answer to your questions and a little how-to, including some pics here in Advanced Tech. Hope that helps.
