Budget prerunner build

I have not done much to it lately. I did pick up an explorer 8.8 so I will have that built and in before TDS.

Not sure if I'm looking at this right, but why are the spring pads perpendicular to the third member?
 
those arent spring pads. looks like it came out of a newer exploder... dont remember what those were used for



edit: jimmy beat me to it
 
where does the budget come into play? :p
awesome looking jeep man
 
Next was the shocks I put a 2.5x12" sway-away triple bypass on the front connected to a t&j upper shock mount

I also have those t and j shock mounts. I just flip flopped the nut and bolt. So the nut is on the outside and put some torque strip, just to make it so I can see if the nut is still there and/or if I need to retighten it. That's just my 2 cents lol maybe I have some OCD. Keep up the build. Maybe some updates too lol
 
someone actually modified some coilovers to turn them into bypass shocks? trippy. Whatever works i guess.
 
Sorry I don't come on here very much anymore I sold the xj and bought a 14 wrangler unlimited. Good eye it is a full length Manx a armed with a Subaru 2.5 in it. I will upload some better pictures of it for you guys.
 
Well I sold the wrangler and am building another 95 Cherokee. So far it has a explorer rear axle, rebuilt the front Dana 30 with ten factory axles a progrip lsd and 4.56 gears. 4.5” lift and 33’s I am going to build my own long arm kit for this one. Pics coming soon
