Default 3" longbars

im not a rock crawler, ive always loved speed. Big old groupB rally fan. Anywho ive been slowly building up my XJ over some time for the purspose of Rallycross. It mostly ends up being my old reliable so im usually using it so it goes slow. Im about to add OME 2" packs in the rear with a 1" shackle and pucks for now in the front, Will be putting ACOS's on with new front springs of my liking after extensive frame stiffening is finished and adjustable geometry will matter.

Now that you know a little about my plan to tear dirt and pavement i just cant find this thread someone wrote about how he runs a 2.5" lift with extensive cutting and longbars to make him articulate with 35s. I want longbars for a tighter rear end under power & possible small landings from a little air front and back. Along with yes articulation.

Just need that thread about this guys cool 2.5" Mega Micro lift.

Thanks in advance to anyone links it.

I would avoid the Acos just buy some Currie progressive rate coil springs and deavers jeep speed springs in the rear and air bumpstops. Asfar as a log arm TNT customs makes a decent Kit that works with less then 4@ of lift you would be better off with a mid arm system. I suggest you start looking on NAXJA in their Jeep speed section your plans are similar to what the pre runner guys do.
