Hey im neew at this site. I have been looking around here for awhile now and finally decided to to show everyone my first heep. It is a 94 ZJ and that opnce was my fathers. As you will c it is defintly not stock any more. My ZJ has has a 4.5 inch rough country suspention lift with 2 inch spacers for a grand total of 6.5 inches of lift. (eventually i will get to long arms once i get the green stuff) I am runnin 32" 10.50 super swamper tsl radials on 15x8 cragar soft 8's. i know i need bigger and defintly WIDER tires. They look way to skinny!!! I have done a couple of other mods such as kevins track bar convertion and some other stuff. Tell me what ya think and any questions you might have. O yea and what to do next? Im sure everyone on here will have a list of stuff! haha Here are some pics. The only problem is all of them pics are without the spacers so there are just 4.5 inches of lift. I still need to get pics of it with the spacers.
The day after my 4.5 inch suspention lift. Some time in january....
OK ok ok ok.... Im sry about all the poser pics....
First day with the new protofab bumper... Looks Killer!!!
My 98 limited (tiffany) sittin next to my 94 laredo (jennifer) haha
The way a jeep emblem is supposed to look!!!!
So... what ya think? Whats next? Im ready for for it...
Haha in these pics the spacers arent in. I havent took any pics with them in yet. Fender trimmin will def be done along with getting bigger tires. At least 33". And yes the sawzall is going to have to come out soon!
I'm just worried about you being that high up on short arms. As long as you know what you need to do...looks good like it is in the pics to me. It's nice having two of them isn't it.
Uhhh...err...that's how we say it where I am from...yea...that's it
(I've been drinking)
Yea i was worried about have putting the spacers in and it being a lil tipsy but it is not as abd as i thought. Im keeping this setup for now untill i can afford long arms. I def need wider and taller tires though! o ytea and havin 2 def helps! I can fix one and not worry about not being able to wheel! HAHA
The height of the Heep isn't my concern, I'm at ~6-7". It's the angles and forces (from being that high on shorts) getting put on your control arm mounts that concern me. Just check them out after you wheel and before you hit the highway. Those suckers can get ripped right off there. Save up for the long arms...man it makes a difference. You can wear 33s at 4"...look around, many have done it.
The bumper is from protofab? I have not heard of that before. Do you have a web site for it? Or is it called Profab?
Thanks dirty for the Web address. That prerunner bumper jayROD900 has does look pretty nice.
Do you have the 3.55 in your zj runnin 33"s ?
This is the right cite that i got my bumper from....
So far so good on my control arm mounts to the unibody. Hopefully they hold up jus a lil longer untill i can get some long arms.
Question.... Is there anyone else that is cheaper then clayton but still has the same size lift and quality?
Also any body from Rhode Island on here? I need another ZJ to go wheelin with!!!!
The bumper is pretty sweet. I wish i had $ for one.
Yea more green backs and less bills would make it easier. Some or most of the bumper/rock sliders winch ect... is pricey. I'm thinking on a class for the basics on welding and practice practice.. Save money for more fuel to go and hang out with you guys on trails..
my jeep has 3.55's in it as well. I guess im running a 32 but it works good enough.
I was a little undecided about 33"s on stock gears on the Hwy. I looked at the BFG's in the 33"s and 32"s atl's. Well I'm at a 3" lift and heep sees alot of Hwy's but, it probably not a big deal but, I dont want to burn up the factory gears yet until I decide to step up to the next level. So I thought 32"s would do just fine.
