Where in the heck

alkaline747trio · 01-20-2005, 07:37 PM

Searched google like mad trying to find where to buy the Skyjacker 6" lift for the Exploder (computer lacking friend wanted me to find it for him and order it, blah blah...) but I have not had any luck at all. 4wheelparts doesn't have it, neither do any of the other "good" online sites.

Also, where can I get the 8" coils? He is planning to go high for the mud, I told him it was overkill, but he is more hardheaded than I.

Any help without telling me to go local (Galloways rips you a new one no matter what) will be greatly appreciated, if no help, oh well...

If I remember correctly, skyjacker stopped making the lift. A while back when I was on the phone with skyjacker about shocks, the guy mentioned they were discontinuing the kit. Unless this has changed, what you can get is probably the last of them

Oh, thank you so much...

My friend will be exstatic. But if he manages to not be able to get that lift, and/or the 8" springs, what should I tell him to do to get the lift he wants. I am kinda obligated to help him since he has done a SAS on his BroncII, so he is helping me with mine in the up-coming months. Would we have to fab something to get that lift in the front? I know that SOA and maybe some 2.5 x 56" 4-5" lift springs from a chevy would give him the lift he needs (eer, wants..) in the rear. I'm having trouble finding alot of the info needed since most of the guys I've found on here with that kind of height have solid fronts or body lift to get that high, and he is wanting pure suspension lift. Could cutting the front TTBs help? I will do some more research on that, but can someone brief me on what the cutting actually does?

You can get a 5.5 SuperLift, then you could do like a body lift and that would probably be close to 8 inches. You will have to do a SOA in the rear which will raise it 6 inches. Or you could just do a SAS in the front.

HAHA.............the ol' "I have a friend" claim, that one is just classic!!! :p

alkaline747trio · 01-23-2005, 11:14 AM

It's not a claim, he's too cheap to go SAS and wants 8" w/o body lift, I am going SAS and want about 6-8" and don't care if I have to get body lift. He's really more of an annoying leech than a friend, he got the X about a month after I, decided to lift it when he noticed I was lookiing at Four Wheeler mag. and saying I was gonna lift mine...

As soon as either project begins I will post pics to prove myself, although I don't feel as if I should.
