he mentioned to get rid of the factory steering. what steering do you guys go to? ive been planning to get the gc knuckles, steering and what not, but now im not sure if that set up will work for what i want, as far as droop goes.

 

The WJ knuckles and steering wouldn't have any adverse effects on your droop.

 

the flatter your steering links are, the closer your track bar and drag link are to parallel, the better your steering will be under suspension cycle. being low cog helps a lot with achieving flat steering. you could run heim joint steering over the stock knuckles, t-link style with clocked heims, and a relocated track bar and be very very successful

 

thanks guys, im not sure if i can afford the heim joints at this time but i figure its just like changing tre's

 

Not hardly 3" and 36" TSL's

 

This. The exact reason I went through all the effort to make high steer work on 2.5" of lift when I did my D44 build.

 

Is 2.5" on 35s LCOG enough? lol. I don't have any problems with only 1.5" of uptravel at each corner, occasionally the rear hits full bump when I go over speed bumps a little fast but I don't consider it more than a slight nuisance.

 

3.5" and 35's I do need to bump stop it tho and a few other small things.

 

Opinions on KOR's vs currie's vs JCR's over the knuckle setups?

 

this is a thread about low cog try to keep it on topic. your question is too vague to answer, use google search to answer your question

 

The last few posts have been on high steer and I wanted to know if there are any issues staying low with an over the knuckle setup, and if one of those kits are better. I want to stay low, on 35's but still do a long arm lift.

 

that is a lot more specific. depends on how low you go I suppose. the issues you could run into is the tie rod hitting the drag link, pitman, or even the drag link being too long as most aftermarket kits are made for 3.5"-6.5". but that would be fairly tough to guesstimate. if you're going that low you may need to build a custom kit and you may need to keep the tie rod UTK without going to an upgraded knuckle. be sure to call the company and discuss it with them prior to making any purchase

currie is over priced, JCR is awesome. I like heims so it's ruffstuff 7/8x7/8 kit all day for me

 

Thanks! Never heard of them and the prices seem fairly decent. I'll have to put them on my research list

 

hey guys, so my XJ has a three inch lift and i was able to get my hands on a set of 33s and wheels with backspacing that will clear and I already have trimmed fenders, and i love the look of a 3 inch and 33s so my question is about bumpstopping,just wondering if there was a certain length anyone recommended or a brand that anyone has used and likes. This would be the first time I've ever done anything with bumpstops so any advice would be appreciated!

 

I would probably post a thread in the modified tech section so you can get a variety of responses. people run everything from expensive acos bumps all the way down to just throwing a couple baseballs inside the coil spring.. And everything in between
