thinking of making home made long arms
how should i go about it? iv seen a few pictures of arms people made but nothing that really helps like where they mount on the frame and all that. im kinda new to the jeep thing :/ any ideas or maybe someone has done this before and can show me some pictures and give me some pointers. im going to 6 or 7 inches. i have the coils and leafs for the back. i have short arms but i dont think it will work as well as i hoped. thanks

check out my build thread its in my signature
i love it, it rides so much nicer thru the rough stuff and crawling, i havnt found a down side to them yet compared to short arms.
i do wish i would have made a 3 link instead of a y link set up though

Go to google and search for Cherokee homemade long arms. Also try the search engine on this forum. Lots of long arm write-ups.
