wow this is odd, i was just talking to my brother about this. we was at the drive in movies the otherday, watching pirates 3 and wild hogs, but we was looking at susspention, him and his wife just got a 94 grand jeep, i got a 92 ex eddie! and we was looking, and we noticed his jeep was solid axle all round, and it got me to thinking, them jeeps are about the same width. they are great off road, y cant i find a junker with low miles, take the front end apart, i thought about even doing spring in the back. like the unibodied jeeps have, and alot of larg offroad trucks. looks kewl as it flexes, im not doing any off roading, jsut like the way solids look, if i do any off roading its in the snow or on a small trail, so im not worried about the d30. im running d35, is there that much a differance!
and i have a bidd whos good at fabin up mettle stuff, so i might jsut do a leaf swap up front, can u use standard rear leafs for the front? or so u need special ones?????
and my dad also has a jeep cherokee, not sure if its grand or not, but its an 85-86 jeep, im sure has solids on it, u think me tipping it on its top and removing the front would do me good? im not wanting full width i like my width, and im only gona run 33's 35s if i get nuts!
im not sure what they ran in the ol jeeps like that. what front end did the older cherokees have? i just looked at the link provided above, so im guessing it was the d30. whats the rear???? 8.8? or??? thanks, im not looking to do this soon, jsut when i get time, cuase im sure itlle only run me a couple hundred, what with the mettal buying and maybe a few cheeseburgers!
thanks!
ohh and sorry for the highjack, didnt wana get yeld at for posting about something thats already up! thanks tho!
