sounds sweet!!! welcome to SiS and get some pics up!!

[95jeepYJ]

don;t waste waste you time and money like me and many others have done in the past, go directly to SOA with a SYE and a CV driveshaft

Welcome to sis

and how do i do that ? lol like the thread said im teh newb iver worked on cars my whole life but just got into offroading so

[Ruecifur]

SOA (spring over axle) is simply moving the spring perches to the top of the axle. Problem with that is the steering needs to be redone, you need a slip yoke eliminator(sye) and a cv (constant velocity) driveshaft. Lots of little things need to be done to make it work right, but you'll end up with a nice flexy suspension with about 5.5 inches of lift, if you keep the stock springs.

I'm going the other route. Keeping mine as low as possible but still fitting the biggest tires i can, and trying to get as much flex as possible too. Honestly, both ways have their pros and cons, just depends who your talking to.

Now that i've confused you more...
have a nice night

how much are you thinking about lifting it?
what size tire do you want to run?
do you mind clearancing the fenders?
Do you have a heavy right foot?

all this goes into what your gonna need to do to build a nice jeep.

and the biggest question...
whats your budget? (and whatever it is... it will be double in a year if your anything like me )

2' or 2.5" for now, 32" tires, idk, yes lol
My budget is nothing i save money to spend money so what ever really i just save up money enough to buy what i want...lol

if you don't mind some trimming you can fit 33's with no lift if you run the right backspacing
see:

Holy no fenders

[grundlepunch]

just do 2 inch and 31's.... a good combo to start with

Actually you can go a lot more than 33's without even going SOA
