Re: Spring issues
I had to buy new plates for the U-bolts, and new frame shackle mounts for
the front springs. My wrangler springs came with wrangler shackles which I
used until I put revolvers on the back and Currie tow shacles on the front.
Otherwise, there was no special mods needed.

Re: Spring issues
Also My jeep didn't go any lower with the wrangler springs. They are softer
but have more arch to compensate.

Re: Spring issues
Also My jeep didn't go any lower with the wrangler springs. They are softer
but have more arch to compensate.

I want to respond by asking, do you still have your axle and spring bumper
stops in place? I would imagine you do since you don't want to harm your
brake hoses et al. Do you have axle and spring bumper stops? I have a 94
YJ and I have them.

Okay that answers my question. The bump stops are basically for protecting
the brake cables, axle hoses, even the wheel housing assembly. I currently
have a disfigured RR wheel housing assembly because the PO must have hit
a hole and the wheel got stuffed into the housing so deep it rode on the
rear part and bent it in. I have to now figure a way to just replace that
part instead of buying a whole new wheel housing assembly. I'm thinking
of chiseling it out, bending it flat and then tacking it back on or using
something like POR15 sealer. That stuff is real strong and works real well.

Okay that answers my question. The bump stops are basically for protecting
the brake cables, axle hoses, even the wheel housing assembly. I currently
have a disfigured RR wheel housing assembly because the PO must have hit
a hole and the wheel got stuffed into the housing so deep it rode on the
rear part and bent it in. I have to now figure a way to just replace that
part instead of buying a whole new wheel housing assembly. I'm thinking
of chiseling it out, bending it flat and then tacking it back on or using
something like POR15 sealer. That stuff is real strong and works real well.
