nothing special. 92 2 door sport 220K. stock 4.0/5spd/231. d30/35 with 3.07s(8.8/4.10 swap in progress)

front lift is rustys fixed lowers, Iron rock double sheer track bar, ZJ steering (soon to be replaced with 1ton) "rancho" 2" coils(got them on CL for $40) 1.75 spacers. IRO box spacer, cheapo pro comp shocks with home made bar pin eleminators, Chevy 1500 brake lines, JKS discos (never seem to get connected anyway)

front is measuring around 3.75 inches of lift form factory.

Rear is original well broke in leafs with 3in AAL(got free) 2In chevy lowering shackles and some cheapo white tube 10" travel shocks. I will probably do shackle re locators here soon.

All in all rear is measuring just over 3 inches of lift from factory height. I wanted a soft flexy rear end and I got it lol the 8.8 should get me another half inch or so of lift and a lot more droop because of the new shock mounts.

and its sitting on 33x12.5 on 15x8 with 3.75BS

Im sure Im forgetting stuff

Instead of trimmed fenders I would go with flares.
