  • My friends 99 cherokee long armed with dana 60s

    Took it out for a test run a couple weeks ago, I got to ride along and was impressed. Its not done yet but everything seems to work well so far

    99 cherokee, 4.0, auto, np231 SYE
    Dana 60s from a 78 ford, 5.38s, detroit front, spool rear
    Rustys 8 inch long arm
    38.5" TSL SX on H1 wheels

    A little taller and not the brand suspension of choice for most people on here, but I figured some people might like to check it out. My friends has little experience in fabricating and wanted to do this himself so it is nothing fancy. Here are some pics.

              I said the same thing when he was building it. I changed my mind once I rode in it, feels very stable

                figure the added width of the 60's would compensate for the height,no?looks pretty cool though...

                  if you took it wheeling a few times you would probably change your mind, after i took my rusty's 8 inch kit to rausch i came to my senses

                              Nope not yet. He's got a pretty full plate (getting an electricians liscence) so the jeep sits in the driveway a lot. Hopefully it will be out some more this summer to really see how well it works
