Dual purpose crap hauler

[jps4jeep]

only good part of C4C was after the dust settled, there were lots of obs in teh jnkyards with lots of good usable parts cheap.

I ordered the 22-797 spring this morning, i'll report when they come in. I also might go with a DYI4x4 stock height shackle, was talking to a friend today and we were discussing if the stock shackle, when flipped, would it be able to support loads with out allowing some lateral deflection. They are pretty thin and flimsy, I might just do it and be done with it.

Well, I was up in northern maine working all week, came home and my 5/1 springs came at some point.

I am very please with the purchasing experience, but I noticed that the springs do not have friction pads between the leaves.

This is my jeep, this pic was taken with the old 36", it now has 40's, but it has not been taken out of the garage yet this year. I need to put new rear springs in it, bent both last fall at the "fall crawl" event, but I am focusing all my money to the pickup.

Here is a couple projects we've been working on.
This was a CJ5 that the owner stretched to CJ6 specs, D60 front, D70 rear, AMC 401 TF727, and a 3.8 Atlas, 39" pitbulls. Chuck, the owner did all the work you see here, but does not have a bender or bend-tech pro, so we built his roll cage for him.
