I plan to drive one, or parts of it, for the next 40 years. I have found alot of XJ in Atlanta with the only problem being that they are 2wd or being wheeled hard.

(fwd) my '48 cj-2a was sitting in the carport when I got home... almost done, a bit more wiring is left, front fender, rad hoses and bumpers. it's blocking my '91 Grand Wagoneer in the carport right now... :) just put insurance on it today and now I can't get it out. :) oh well, both Alpha and Omega are under cover... my Benz and WJ are sitting outside... 46 degree foggy, drizzly type weather... not a big deal. my son's '90 cherokee got moved up into the garden, and the '75 J10 trailer is next to the carport with the cj's roll bar and assorted parts... now, if Superdawg comes back home the collection will be complete... :) - -- john at http://wagoneers.com Snohomish, WA - where Jeeps don't rust, they mold... ============================================ 1948 Willys CJ-2A (Alpha) 1991 Jeep Grand Wagoneer (Omega) 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 1991 Mercedes 300D 2.5L TD 1983 Jeep J10 Stepside (Superdawg) 1975 Jeep J10 trailer hydraulic dump http://wagoneers.com/johns-vehicles.html ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 7 Feb 2007 11:07:45 -0600 From: "Bob Carlson" Subject: xj: lifting thoughts, kits, etc. I am beginning to look at lifting my 94 Cherokee mildly, possibly with a 2-3" lift as I am looking to run ~31" tires. The XJ will still be my daily driver, so I am not really concerned with going bigger (that's what the 86' FSJ project is for!) and am wondering if any of you would share with me your past/present dealings' with the lift(s) you have/had put on your Jeep. I'm wanting to get a lift with: - - post purchase support from the manufacturer/dealer (for those times when, for one reason or another a part is missing or damaged during transit), - - a complete kit would be nice, but not necessary; I do want to try a limit the number of purchasing points if at all possible (you know, purchasing shocks from vendor A, bushings from vendor B, springs from C, etc., etc.) - - some sort of detailed instructional sheet/book is always beneficial (not that I couldn't figure it out on my own, but it would help to decrease the wrenching time) - - I definitely want a kit/setup that comes with full rear springs, no add-a-leaf's thanks, - Bob ------------------------------ End of xj-digest V1 #2504 *************************
