What do you all think....

[AJ99]

Ok well i got my jeep up and going again. I just put a long are kit on and a little higher lift for the front. Here are some pics... Give me some input on what you think.. I need to do some bump stops i think. The only limiting factor i have now is my shocks. I know i need to do limit straps now that i have a long arm kit. But my flexing isnt too bad i dont think

Sway bar connected(my back driver side came off the ground and i backed it down until it was on the ground again)

Sway bar disco but the hill i was on wasnt big enough to flex out all the way (rear driver side never go close to unloading.)

Well personally I hate you, but good job! :thumbsup:

Yep, long arms are in my future, they just make too much sense.

[AJ99]

Hmmm I see you are going something more serious than hate, like a call to a hit man. :rotfl2:

Very nice. Yeah I suspect mine will cost much much more.

[AJ99]

well what happened was it was on naxja for 100. i sold my old re 4.5 front stuff to a good buddy just starting out for 100. i had to drive about and hour and a half to get the stuff but in my vw jetta it took less than a 1/4 tank there and back. It took a while to get it all done i am not sure what my wife and kids look like anymore lol

Not sure, I don't think so. I haven't been on facebook in a while. I spend about 10 hours yesterday installing a car alarm on my heep. Another hour, or so today. OMG!

[AJ99]

ya i spent about 3 hours tracking down the transmission wire hook ups and splicing them in there because its a newer trans in my 87 so the plugs didnt match but i have all my gears now and now i am working on half doors..

It looks GREAT! Wish I had just gone with LA's to begin with.

[AJ99]

ya so did i lol... the easiest thing to do though is keep an eye on craigslist, naxja, or ebay. You can always find used stuff on those pretty cheap. Put it this way my jeep is almost 100 % recycled. The only things new that i bought for it was my winch, rims, locker, paint, bedliner, and metal to build my bumper (which were scraps from the local metal shop. My lift, tires, jeep, transmission, cb radio, antenna, stereo, speakers, my now long arms, track bar, track bar bracket, shocks, brake lines, drive line and my dana 44 cover (which came from a front 44 was put on my back because they are thicker than the rear ones) were wall used lol. all together i only have 2800 into my entire jeep but also a lot of time

Very nice, very very nice. :)

Can I join the hate list? I built mine for about $60

By the way AJ, Looks good. You won't be sorry you went with LAs

Me too.


Your jeep looks good. I'm digging the green color.

[AJ99]

Thanks everyone. Since you all like the green i guess i should tell you it is rattle can. It is engine enamel. I couldnt find the color in any other spray paint. I once had a baja the same color so i guess you can say all my toys are this color lol...
