I see you put the 1" TC drop after the 2.5"RC, how does it drive now? any vibs?

Here's my 2.5" RC with 31 x 10.5 R15 Nitto Dune Grapplers, everything else stock:

Before we put the lift kit on it we didn't have any problems. Put the lift kit on and instant vibes. I thought the TC drop would fix it but it didn't. It didn't change anything. Vibes were still the same. Then I decided to replace the rear u-joints. No more vibrations after that. I had checked the u-joints before and there just wasn't any play. They felt fine but they were old.

Here is my 93 with 4" RC lift I just installed with some mild 33 AT's



This was prior to lift with 30's



and just in case someone is wondering what is in the garage in the 2nd pic - it is my CJ (w/ 2 1/2" Skyjacker and YJ shackles on 32" BFG ATs)

Still rub a little. Going to do a 1" BL and some TJ flares by summertime.

Get the over size (wider tj flares) and do a 1" boomerang shackle instead of the body lift. It will take a lot less time. My YJ runs 35" bfg kmw's with 4" suspension, 1" booms and the wide tj flares. No rub even off road.

Ha ha..... I JUST made that decision. Was talking to Martin (leftlanetruckin') and Navman here on JF. Going to go with some MORE 5/8" booms and I'm supposed to call another JF member tomorrow about some TJ flares. (And my girlfriend is buying me rock sliders for Christmas.... score!)

Kind of regretting 32's right now.... but at the time I figured 4" and 32's would be perfect. Oh well. They'll do for now.

The reason I was thinking of a 1"BL before was mostly so that I could hit the top of my frame with some POR-15. Oh well. (I still have to do a 1" BL this coming December. Promised a friend I'd help him put one on.)

NO lift, totally stock suspension and 31" BFG AT KOs. Rubbed inner front spring at full lock, otherwise no rubbing when street driving.






Trimmed flares an adjusted steering stops...no rubbing.
