Re: CJ-7 Spring Over
First off you should be aware of what all that involves:.

CJ-7 Spring Over
I'm getting ready to do a spring-over on my CJ-7. I'd like to hear
about any lessons that you could share. I would appreciate it. Tony |
Re: CJ-7 Spring Over
Hi Tony,
Only if you can't get the height for your humongous tires any other way. The axles on the short leaf side will wrap likes there's no tomorrow, you'll need strong traction bars to keep it from bouncing like a TJ.

Re: CJ-7 Spring Over
Tony ; listen to bill. A friend of mine did one on a 84'' CJ and he is kind
of wishing that he hadn't now. He has broken the front and rear pinion yokes. and now he's try to make a anti wrap bar and having a hard time with it. I'm not saying that it's all bad ,but it is work , and in my book his 84 cj-7 flex's about 1" more then mine with a 4" spring kit. If I was to open up the clamp's around my my spring's I could probably beat that. So in case you haven't though it over real good you might want to. Good Luck!!! Jimmie; 86" CJ-7 to many mod's to list and not even close to being done. "L.W.

Re: CJ-7 Spring Over
Hey fellers, I don't have a wrap problem. The SOA was a great mod for my
Jeep. I used the CJ springs with what I belive is an add-a-leaf. I also used the Rubicon Express anti-wrap perches.

Re: CJ-7 Spring Over
1. Do any other swaps (tranny, T/C, etc) that you have planned at the same
time. Cause you're probably gonna have to have your drivshafts re-done. I had to have both of mine re-done, and now I'm doing a tub swap with tranny swap (TF727) and I'm afraid I might have to have my rear driveshaft shortened about back to where it was originally because of the added length in my new tranny. 2. You don't HAVE to buy the expensive extended braided steel brake lines. http://www.4x4wire.com/jeep/tech/brakes/brakehoses/ 3.
