lift is almost done (pics)

[dharmabum]

Heres a pic of my 72 with the lift almost finished. Not really sure about the real lift height cause it was sagging so much before but 32s will fit with plenty of room. I just gotta get some wider 5 lug rims and mount up the tires.

Can you say "Narrow Track"!
It will look great when you get those wider rims and tires.

Yeah I actually stuck a 32x11.5 mud tire on there and it fit really well. Filled out the wheelwell nice. I just gotta find some 15x7 or 15x8 wheels that will fit and mount up my tires. smile.gif

looks about the same height as my 73 wag with r@#$&*o 24043 front springs, sposed to be 2.5-3 inches, but i got more like 4-4.5 inches... narrow track is cool!

that looks sweet

i just removed the front dana 60 from my 79 and put a 3/4 ton dana 44.this was a spring over with 10 inch chevy springs.the new 44 is a springunder.im still driving it with it being 7-8 inches higher in the rear.looks funny as h#@ll

Very nice.

What do the neighbors think?

That looks GREAT ! When you get the tires put on there post some more pics. What kind of rims are you thinking of going with. I bet some black rock crushers would look really nice on that truck.

have you done anything to address the shackle angle up front? I also have a '72, so I know where you're coming from.... that's why I went SOA..

I'd be interested in details if you move the spring mounts, and to find out how everything goes... I might need to pick up 2 or 3" in the front after I finish the rear...

the Jeep looks good, once you get some wider tires and wheels on there it will really start to look good...... smile.gif

Thanks alot. The neighbors hate me but what else is new? For rims I was just thinking of rockcrawlers or wagons but I'll take whatever I can find for cheap asap. I haven't gotten to do anything on the shackle angle yet due to the rain, work, etc.. but hopefully I'll get some wrenching time tomorrow or Friday. It looks really easy to make up a new hanger but I might play around with the springs first to soften up the ride. I'll definitely post some more pics when I get the tires on.
