BB install with pics........
I was told i should post this here if its not allowed then please delete/move it.
OK i set out to install my BB and things today and finaly got it done. It took about 5/5.5 hrs. 1st i used the instructions that i got off Kevinsoffroad.com. That helped a lot. I just jacked up one side of the axle as high as i could and with the tire off and set two jackstands right behind the lower control arm(LCA's). un-done the sway bars. Got my spring compressors tight PIC.http://img65.imageshack.us/img65/6544/lift012r1ny.jpg and then lowered the jack so that the frame stoped on the stands and the axle went as low as i could get it. PIC2.http://img28.imageshack.us/img28/7910/lift011r8fh.jpg Here it is after i got the BB installed on the spring post PIC3.http://img212.imageshack.us/img212/5703/lift009r4in.jpg And finaly here it is with the spring back in place and the bump stop extention on the bottom PIC4.http://img212.imageshack.us/img212/1382/lift007r8kn.jpg Now for the rear ones. Did the same thing for the rear as far as the jack goes. Here you can see that i have installed the 2" bump stop extentions the BB and the spring retainer arm extentions. Now my jeep has UC so i already had a spacer on the bump stop i took it out and just used the 2" extender/spacer. PIC5.http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/8448/lift005r3wz.jpg This actualy turned out pretty easy. Ill try to answer any questions if you guys that are planning on doing one soon have any. Now the final results PIC6.http://img141.imageshack.us/img141/8595/lift004r8ib.jpg __________________

New member....great site!
OK, I joined because I am ready to start upgrading my ZJ. Starting with my tires and looking for advice. I have stock 225/70/16's, considering 255/65/16's as a safe bet....can I get away with installing them without any other modifcations? Could I go bigger without any major rubbing? Thanks for any help, Mike

You might want to try and ask that question in the ZJ technically section, you might get a better response there: http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f13/
