No problem. Ran that type of radiator in my 5.9L ZJ and loved it.

I don't even want to add all the parts up. I'd probably cry and the wife would leave me, lol. Not to mention I'm looking at a dodge durango for the detail business and that's lifted, lol. Oh well, only live once.

Got any pictures of your SRT8?

I actually did a mock set up of them this week. They should work fine. The braided line will have to be slightly angled out because they won't fit in the little "pocket" where normal shocks go but they should be good. Ill post pictures this weekend because I'm going to be installing the long arms this weekend.

I opted against them. Figure if Im going to go with monotubes ill do it right and do it once. Im going to go for either bilstein 7100s or 9100s.

Well lets see...

$1500.00 for the jeep itself
$500.00 for the fiberglass fenders.
$700.00 for the long arms
$600.00 for lift kit
$150.00 for IRO heavy duty tie rod
$200.00 for IRO track bar, double shear
$80.00 for gen right hood louvers
$100.00 for headlight upgrade
$150.00 for tail lights
$400.00 for Bushwacker flat fenders. Ended up only using the rears
$120.00 for all aluminum radiator.
$80.00 for water pump and thermostat
$200.00 for rear tire carrier.
$2100.00 for wheels and tires.
$400.00 for sliders-just placed order
$120.00 for front pads and rotors

Total.-$7200.00


So probably between this XJ and the trail XJ I have probably 20 grand sitting in the driveway. It's sickening to see how much money I've spent but you know, that's just part of the hobby and I love this hobby, it's brought me awesome memories and I've seen awesome places. So buying all these parts and jeep stuff is well worth it to me.
