haha, wish that was my problem, instead of lack of finances... what plans u have? other than the comp cut & sliders... for reference if u want it, my cut & fold write up

rig's lookin great so far... really like the aluminum VC



what header did u install? OEM or aftermarket?

 

I went with the banks header but it's junk it has already cracked I took it off welded it back up and it cracked again in a different spot I will never buy banks again JUNK!
But I wanna forge rock krawlar rear coil conversion

 

ooh sit coil'd rear... niice, they offer a real nice package... thought about it myself, but honestly wouldnt want it on the 8.25, so i'd rather do it to an 8.8, & by the time i get to that, i hope that my fab skills are tuned enough to build up my own links/truss/xmember

thats some non-sense about that banks header... try to contact them about it? that must of been hard to swallow that kinda quality from a product at their prices

 

i know i missed it somewhere..... but what gears are you running? and how are the 35s on the stock axles? ill be making the move up to 35s soon.

 

page 6, post #83

 

4.56 with a Detroit in the rear and I have ten factory axels in the rear stock axels with open diff in the front I want to get te 8.8 axel so I can have 4.88 gears

 

Oh yeah I wanna upgrade my axel b4 I do it

 

hey guys I'm thinking about buying the shackle relocation brackets and ill need to take a leaf out to lower it back down to 6.5 inches witch leaf should i remove I'm running rustys 6.5 leaf springs btw

 

Drove up to westchester quadratec to get some parts today, i got a trans cooler kit. Brackets so i can cut and off and remount my rear shocks. Then when i got home I ordered the h.d shackle relocation kit! I plan on doing the cut and fold and installing the goodies this week! I`ll have pictures up soon

 

If you're considering coil rear check out Staangs Fab. I've seen his work and its god damn ridiculous how strong his stuff his. And hes very reasonably priced.

 

looks like a nice kit just don't like how a stock xj coil nets 6" of lift i want to coil convert but want to stay 4.5"

 

Yeah i wanna cut more out of my fenders and come down to like 5"

Ok thanks ill look into it

 

so did a couple more things to the xj this week installed a trans cooler and the H.D shackle relocation brackets i like the drop brackets a lot and it was an easy install!

painting the brackets!



installing them



all done and i gained close to 3/4" of lift!



and my big *** trans cooler!

 

i like the cooler, was planning one myself.

 

I figured it was time to break down and get one lol. I got the one from quadratec it was like $80 and i cut the lines down by the oil pan so i could bypass the radiator and just use the new cooler
