Removing a lift, who wants some?
 
I'd think that all of the regulars know, I'm taking it down. You know, 76
jeep CJ-7, lifted, big tires, blah, blah, blah......

I know some of what I need for it: Springs, shocks, and a pitman arm. What
about the transfer case? I saw on one of the websites that there was some
kind of tranfer case lift accessory. I guess I'm just asking what else do I
need to bring it down? I have a shot at getting my hands on some stock leaf
springs, but it's not for sure yet.

Question number 2, since I see that there are people lifting their jeeps,
does anyone have the stock pieces that they would let me have for a
reasonable price? Or, option B, would anyone consider a trade for the
springs and suspension parts that I need? I'm going to need to get
something out of the 35" tires and the American Racing wheels.

Finally, the best possibility, I'd like to have a bare frame that I can
start with. I know that I can buy a new one - it's just a little too
expensive. The ideal situation would be to acquire a 1981 or older CJ-7
that has a good frame (at least salvagable) and a rusted out body, no engine
required - I have everything else, I just need a frame and suspension with a
clear title.

Thanks,

Chip

Re: Removing a lift, who wants some?
 
I would be thinking about advertising it for trade, for a stock
Jeep. I can see you spending thousand of dollars, then storing the stuff
in your garage for ten years, before you get tired of it and ship it off
to the dump.

Re: Removing a lift, who wants some?
 
And miss all of the fun of restoring it myself? I'm thinking that it would
take too long to find a trade with the options that I'd like. I like the
fiberglass body, I like the fact that it has a 360 V-8 in it. I guess a 6
cyl would be alright. I did get this from a family friend for a good
price - I would not discount a trade of it were presented to me, I'm just
not going to beat down doors looking for one. There are a few things that I
do not care for, but a jeep in the garage is worth more than 2 in the
neighbor's driveway, isn't it.
