[99ex22]

thanks man!

 

[StryctNy9e]

looks sweet man. can you get a pic of how she sits normally? I want to see how she sits. Im sure it looks awsome. Thanks.

 

[99ex22]

thanks man! Ill get one in the morning for you! it sits MAYBE 1" lower in the front but i kinda like it like that because it was sagin in the rear before

 

[99ex22]

now thats what i call ground clearance

 

[sport97]

I love that flex shot on the jeep. The bottom of your bumper is even with his hood. Awesome.

 

[99ex22]

Thanks guys! I like this set up a lot better than any of the others available for our trucks. The ground clearance and departure angle are improved a TON compared to a 3"BL with shackles and the 4" superlift. Nick27 is a genius for figuring this out.

thanks, all you need to do is buy a 3" body lift for your truck and cut them down to the lengths that are listed in nicks thread above. the superlift soa kit for the rear, and f-150 coil seats for the front to get another 2". haha it wasn't my idea, it was nick26's and I don't mind one bit and im sure he does not either. Get Her UP!

 

[StryctNy9e]

thanks for the info. Sorry I didnt read the entire post, I got excited and the gears started spinning in my head.

 

[99ex22]

No problem man. Here is a link to the body lift...http://www.suspensionconnection.com/cgi-bin/suscon/793.html

Your looking at around 340.00 for 5" of lift...Thats not bad at all!

 

[Nosveten]

Looks awesome. Gives me a lot of ideas for my '00 EB. Actually almost everything you did is what I want to do to mine. I have the lift shackles and the 2" TT done. Just need some add-a-leafs or beefier leafs all together and a 1" Body Lift.
Again, it looks great and thanks for the ideas.
