ya i don't know it is deff short though, but got one off a dodge today put it in and now i got brake line for days i could probly go up 6 inches on it if i wanted to

ok got her all done today it was not to bad i slept in till like 10 this morning so i didnt get started on it first thing and when i was done my wife made me take her out to dinner as a test drive so as promised though a little late here are the pics

So I've had the lift in for a few days now rides great not to stiff not real sloshy so I'm pleased I've got a small vibration from 28 to 33 mph I've got shims for the leafs to correct the pinon angle on order just picked up new u-joints so hopefully that fixes it also I can feel death wobble trying to start at around 60 mph but as you can see I desperately need new tires and an alignment done so I'm sure after that it will run great so just a few things to tackle in the next few weeks then it's on to the rear quarter panel I'm really not looking forward to doing it but can't wait til it's fixed lol

So quick update this morning I was leaving for work went to start her up and nothing not even a click on the starter it was like no power at all so I pulled the wifes car over and jumped it fired right up got to work ran fine let it idle for 45 min shut it down went in for pt came back an hour later and samething dead so had a buddy jump me started home and battery gauge spiked WTF so got a little work ahead of me any advice or tips would be great

Nice lift. Looks like you got almost 4 inches out of it. Do you have plans for the tires yet?

Any engine light?

Ya I got a set of 31's off my buddy's jeep we lifted a few weeks ago he gave me for helping him just gotta get rims for them

Nope nothing just a spiking voltage gauge and a battery that's not holding a charge I need a new battery I know that I'm gonna bench test the alternator either tonight or tomorrow

Well got the alternator bench tested charging good but the voltage regulator is bad it's been putting out around 20 21 volts instead of 14 like it's supposed to ended up cooking my battery so new alternator and battery as soon as I can afford it got the alternator is ordered battery has to wait till next paycheck so me and the wifes sharing her car for now...bummer...what's killing me is the volt gauge never read high until I started having battery problems i don't get it so my body work is postponed a few more weeks

Glad you got to the bottom of your voltage issue.

thanks me to also thanks for stopping by and making suggestions im fairly mechanically inclined but diagnoses is not my forte sometimes i need a little help

hey goldenclassic i just looked thru your pics you got a nice lookin jeep there no pics of the lift though id like to see some but hey were those dod stickers i seen on your windshield? if so what branch and duty station?

so after much thought on the doorless thing i have decided to do it i did the modified hinges on the front two today and plan to do the rear two probably next weekend while i wait to get a new battery, i seen a few tube doors on the fab pages i like a lot so im thinking i will make some up for it in a few weeks to kinda practice my welding before i try it out on the quarter panel i will post pics of the front tomorrow
