I recently was able to purchase a 91 MJ Eliminator with 138k on a 4.OL. Cab is pretty decent bed needs some work. It runs excellent, however I am looking for help with one problem. I definitely need some new shocks/coils. It is rather bouncy when I hit a ruff road. I was thing of replacing rear leafs/front coils and shocks. I am not necessarily looking for a lift although I would not mind a small one. What would be the best and most cost effective way to go?
well you could get coils from a v8 grand cherokee, and maybe a 1" spacer, get the rear leafs re-arched, and add 4 longer shocks should give you a decent looking stance and clear 31's
I have a 3 inch Rancho on mine and didn't need the SYE. If I had it to do over again OME HD 3 inch front springs and Rusty's 4 inch rear Leafs. I have 31's and the fronts rub a bit.
No. Cherokees do, but MJs have a foot more wheelbase and can go ~5" with the stock driveshaft. Be aware that U-joints do not like to have their operating angles changed and it is advised to change those if you add lift.
Jeep on!
