Ha! Well it's good to show them not to judge a book (jeep) by it's cover (model)!

 

I noticed your sig, what kind of budget are you looking at? The Zone 4" lift isn't to bad for the price. Depending on headlight assemblies there is a company out now that is making dual headlight setups for ZJ's now, including HID's I think.

 

Its very much like that one, my dad always worried , what if it fails.
So he would use bricks or whatever as backup.
But i do agree , these jacks are way easier and faster
than the one that comes with the jeep originally.

 

Well... I don't really have a budget, I just don't want something crazy expensive. I'm not looking for a long arm kit, however I do want arms that are long enough that it's not going to move my differentials. Nothing over $1000 basically.

 

WK's and WK2's are gross in my opinion... there are so many things i love about WJ's... and like dan, i've been out on the trail and ran into friends with lifted TJ's and have been scared to go where i've taken my WJ...

wheeling my WJ and planning on building the way i wanted all i saw was dollar signs... and on my ZJ were talking some change LOL... its alot more affordable to lift and to wheel... and having a Rust Free 93 is a rarity up here... so its like im going to have a brand new Jeep built up EXACTLY how i want...

And in effort to reduce some mileage on my Jeep (s)... I took a look at a Jetta today for the lady... $800 for a 2000 TDI only thing that scares me is the mileage, 450,000km's... but i've seen these hit 5-600k without any major repairs...

my ZJ is about to turn 380,000km in the next few days... started knocking like crazy... thinking a wristpin is on its way out... hopefully i'll have some down time on the jeep and be able to fix it up... If it blows i do have another 4.0 ready to drop in...

 

Very lazy day, washed the Jeep after running a couple trails this morning. So nice to enjoy a day without rain for a change!

 

Shazzamy have you checked out doing a front to rear spring swap? Will give you a small lift and it's not hard to do.

 

Indeed, sunny here on the east coast... today im fixing the cardian joint in my front drive shaft... or well atleast going to attempt a repair, the univerals are fine, were talking about the ball in the cardian being clearly broken...

hoping to remove the obstructions and remove the clicking noise from under my seat LOL
need to find a rebuild kit for a cardian joint... dan?? i checked on rock auto for a rebuild but didn't find one... must not exist

 

04WJGuy: Yeah, I've had a a look at front to rear spring swaps, I just don't really know right at the moment..

Not exactly sure what your needing Mike, let me know if you need something more specific. Tom Woods sells all the parts you would need for a full rebuild. That's where I got my double cardan from.
