YJ coilover buildup
Well the title says it, I decided im gonna ditch the front leaf springs and go for a 3 link with coilovers. The rear is going to be stretched with xj leafs. I plan on going for about a 102 wheelbase.
![]() Here's my jeep when i first got it 10 yrs ago ![]() And this is how it sits now minus the nerf bars

Here's a list of parts i have
Waggy 44 Poly Performance 3 link kit Fox 2.0 remote reservoir coilovers 12" BTF rear stretch bumper xj leaf springs f 8.8 super 88 kit yukon 4.88 front/rear Here's what im still trying to aquire antirock swaybar arb lockers front rear superior shafts for 44 ctm u-joints atlas 4 sp t-case wheels/ tires going 35's for now I know everyone is thinking i should probably not spend money on the d44 and just go for 60's. personally i don't like the way they look too wide in my opinion. And i dont really want to be bothered by the cops here in Ca for not having mudflaps. ![]() ![]() My waggy 44 with dedenbear or reid knuckles, i also have steering arms from ballistic fab i'll try and post more pics when i find my camera. If anyone has 3-linked the front of their rig feel free to post up some pics to help me out also any comments or suggestions would be great. |

I've got a buddy who lives over in Paso, (you may know him) and he's running a D60 rear/ D44 front on 37's on his TJ with zero probs. The front has never been an issue for him. I think you'll be fine. And btw... me jealous big time. Would love to coil my junk.
Should be a nice project. I'm still leafs, so can't really help much, but good luck and keep the pics coming. WRM

Good luck man, I wish I had the ability/money/time to do this. Do you have any time frame of when you would like to be done?

I'm hoping too be done by the end of oct the only thing holding me back is not having all the parts yet and lack of money. Once i get the rest of the parts it wont take long to install. I'll get more pics up on thursday if i get off work.
