I'd find a local machine shop to do the work.. personally I've used TSP over the years for corvette and other platforms and never cared for their products...
Very easy to do... if you don't plan on any crazy rock bouncing I'd find a dana 44 or 50 driver side drop... bracket would be a couple hundred coilovers would be 1200 or less.. track bar and steering roughly $500 or less. I weld and fab so I don't pay as much as most and its my time... but...
I agree... If I do an SAS swap I'll use Eaton E Lockers.. Not sure they do make one for the 8.5 rear but nothing for the front.. still not sure what I wanna do..
Well it's my wife's daily driver... And I want her to have good control if she was to ever be stuck anywhere.. I ran a shaved 14 bolt on TJ rock crawler.. I have the new Mopar Ultimate 60's for my JK Unlimited... I wanna lift her tahoe as well but the options are so horrible and expensive.. I...
My wife has a Superchips Cortex on her tahoe.. you can adjust shift pressures.. but mine also done from building the trans and valve body.. but back when it was stock it was a noticeable difference she hated driving it stock.. Tahoe are so underpowered it helps a little bit.
The only thing I don't like about the bullet proof kit is the upper citron arms are dropped... I feel that could be a weak link and not safe... thats why I would prefer a knuckle lift.. then use the pro comp rear parts them make some of my own control arms ..
I appreciate it.. I wouldn't be opposed to a knuckle lift.. I keep thinking of the Zone lift and its basically BDS and I can add spacers to the rear to even the stance correct? it doesn't pull anything its a pavement pounder and goes into the Mountains on level 1 trails.
Yeah it was fun.. far to expensive to drag race a brick!!! was certified for 8.50!!! I switched to road racing then I had a little girl so back to Jeeps and exploring as a family.. and enjoying retirement!!
well back then it was a just a built 5.9 milled intake for side draft.. lots of fuel and 78mm/130mm compounds.. sold it a long time ago.. it eventually had a destroy 6.7 to 6.4
the company I used for springs before is called Coil Spring Specialties.. you need to give them a part number of your coil and then they spec whatever you want.. different rates and weights.. pretty cool only cost me $375.00 when I have some made for my drag truck.. I can probably set up as a...
FOX IFP shocks are way better then Bilsteins.. I originally had some Bilsteins coilers on my ZO6 and they were garbage.. Went to Penske 9700's and were killer.. brother has some Bilstein coilers on his TJ crawler and hates them.. We both Use fox 2.5 16" travel coilers on our rigs and love...
Yeah I'm not sure about which one.. I like bits and pieces of each... I definitely don't wanna use spring spacers I prefer full length springs which I can also have made cheap.. and I'm ditching the torsion bars for coil overs up front..not sure if I wanna do 33's or 35's I need to see those...
Maybe this.. Zone is sister company of BDS.. I don't need shock and what not.. can upgrade the pieces I want and tailor it to my liking.. doing coilers up front anyways..
