Installed my new shift ****! Lol

Came from an auto shifter in a 2011 jk.

 

Hey i couldent find anywhere weather or not you painted your cherokee 2 tone yourself or not. If you did, how did you do it and how did it turn out?

 

i did it myself.

the bottom is rustoleum roll on bed liner sprayed through an undercoating gun.

and the top is just some Khaki spray can paint.

i thought it turned out decent, needs some touch up though, as wheeling has been pretty harsh

 

Alright. My roof and hood are really faded so I'm thinking about doing a two tone thing like yours. Not sure what color I wana go with though

 

dude that looks sick. Did it just screw on? I may have to find one of those...but where the hell did you find a 2011 JK to steal the shifter **** off? lol

 

It just pulls off the JK. But its hard plastic inside so threading it on my shifter was easy.

It came off a customers who had us install some aftermarket handles.

Maybe ebay or dealer would have them

 

I have followed your build.love it. Going to link mine soon, what springs did you end up with in the rear? What is the rate if you know?

 

I think his are just stock rear LJ coils. Correct me if im wrong

 

That would be sweet, as i just finished putting a LA kit on my buddies 05 LJ and have the stock rear springs

 

Yeah man i think its in the thread a few pages back him and another guy had a discussion about it

 

Yeah, tried to find it earlier..but i thought he said it sat higher than he liked, and was doing some tuning?maybe he will chime in

 

They are factory lj Rubicon rear coils. Not specific on the rate but its pretty soft.

And unloaded it sits a little tall in the rear.

But loaded with gear/ tools/ gas it sits pretty even with my front 4.5 coils

But your height will vary depending on a few variables

 

these are stockLJ..non Rubicon..think there may be a size differance..plus i have 5.5 fronts.

 

There is a spring rate difference.

But I'm sure it wont hurt to try them.

I went through a few sets of springs before I decided to keep these

 

I'll trow them in there once i get the front built. see how it goes.
