Default xj 12inches 39'' irocks frame discusion

the reason of the comments/questions was to find out about the computers of the 97 xj and the 06 rubi not to stir up a bunch of bs. i bout an 06 rubi at an insurance auction it has the 39'' irocks on it and 10 '' of lift it has been destroyed in a wreck i thought it would be easier to put the frame under the xj mainly for the coils in the rear i but however i spoke with austin at rustys off road and he told me that the coil setup in the rear of the rubi would hurt me as far as the flex goes that i would have to do a longarm system that would have to be custom and it would be better for all of it to be custom my main concern was the unibody wasnt thick enough to weld that much to and /or able to support everything but i appreciate the advice of it being a bad idea i have lifted everything from a limo to trucks they have all had a good foundation to weld to so sorry for the criticism but i ride a lot harder than most ive seen and want my xj to go when and where needed. by the way im 25 years old (im the one responsible for the project not the one that owns this account) and have a lot of experience in the off road world and am known to have the biggest and baddest vehicles around my area

a) i dont see what there is to discuss
b) maybe next time you type something you could use some punctuation
c) if your worried about having a frame then just buy another TJ and swap parts.

try looking into v8 swaps theres a lot to do with computer hook ups on those. it might provide the the info you need, i know with v8 swaps they use the pcm from the motor being swapped, and the original jeeps ecm.

other than that dont know much. try lookinon maybe novak or advanced adapters for more info.

good luck on your project.

this isnt my post. as you can see if you look at my pictures my xj is obviously still stock. the one with the post is a friend of mine that was looking for certain answers. he is know around our area for having the biggest and baddest vehicles. and i mean no disrespect to anyone by this but everyone telling me i need to go to http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/[/QUOTE] is getting nowhere because the one your talking about is a friend of mine not me. i joined this because i like the site and it has helped me several times. he got on stirring up trouble becasue he didnt get answers that he was looking for.

I only suggested it, because thats where all the big, bad, scawee 4x4s are at.

Your not "him" huh? then may I suggest getting a new account, so your not associated with his posts?
As far as your "build" is concerned, there's plenty of options out there for conversions, fabrication, ect.... It's just a matter of money, and some skill. If you guys really want to build this beastly rubicon, then pirate 4x4 is actually a good place to go for hard core fab ect.

nah he dont have access to my account anymore. and the build is his build. i have a 89 stock cherokee that im looking to but 4 1/2 to 6 iches of lift and some 33's or 35's depending on the lift i go with and ill be happy. hes just strange and likes to do fab work and all that other good stuff. so whatever he messes up in the process is his doings not mine. whatever is done to mine is going to be done right.i mean you can see my cherokee on my profile, the only thing thats changes on my vehicle since the pictures is the color and ill have pictures posted before to long of the way it looks now. so clearly i have no room to talk about anyone with a stock or small lift.
