Throwin the lift on tomorrow, Believe i have a d35 in the back, am using a rc 3 inch block (used) am going to local spring shop to have new u-bolts made, whats the size and length, i need to know so they know what to give me, sorry, lost my tape measure. Also, do i need a track bar relocate bracket for 3 inch lift? Im going to be running 15x8 d-windows, 3/75 bs, would 33's rub with stock control arms an such (no flexing, just street duty), or should i just roll with 31's, and play it safe?? Any pics/comments on 33's and 3inch would be apprec!! thanks

 

Hmmm,and sarcasm ensues!!! Awesome

 

Blocks suck, but 3" dia is what the D35 is. You may be alright at 3" lift with stock T-bar. But either drill a new hole .75" to the driver side, or get an adjustable one.

 

Blocks will be just fine for a dd rig. and i have seen a xj with 3" and 33" however it took a lot of trim. and the above guy is incorrect, 8.25c has 3" u bolts, not sure on the d35 though. Good luck and have fun.

 

Not sure what size a d35 u bolt is. However a 3" u bolt will be fine as they use the same top plates. But just so you know if you are getting custom U-Bolts made then make sure they are ASE grade 8 or Metric grade 10.9. I have seen alot of non grade 8 u-bolts stretch bad and a few brake out on the trails. and a 3" block is a HUGE block.....

 

Good point. I forgot that a 8.25 bolt will work on a d35, its the d35 bolt that wont work on the 8.25 my bad

 

D35 has a 2.75" U-Bolt I believe.
