Nice!

Yes, very stupid.

I have a question about tire width. I will eventually put a 33" tire on my cherokee. Some manufacturers offer a 33" tire in 10.5 width and 12.5 width. Wheel width will be 8". What are the pros/cons of each width i.e. 10.5 versus 12.5? This is what I can think of.... narrower tire: more...

I just installed the 2" RR BB on mine. Turned out well. Here is a link to my writeup. http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=901474&highlight=budget+boost+installation Some issues: 1. Exhaust will hit the rear shackle. Took mine to a shop and had them heat and bend the exhaust for...

Yea, I called them and they suggested I could grind the end of the BPE to fit. I might do that. Right now I am running w/o it in the front.

Just prepare for the worst. I am just finishing up a 2" Budget Boost on my 1998 XJ. I have been working on it for the past 4 days, on and off. I broke all 4 of the rear upper shock mounts, I wasn't happy. Drilled them out and tapped and rethreaded. Took some time though. I also broke the...

What an idiot!

Well, I decided to install a 2" BB (Rocky Road) on my 1998 XJ. The kit came with spacers for the front, and 1-1/2" shackles and 1/2" blocks for the rear. I started with the rear: Yesterday.... First, I jacked the left rear up, and took the tire off. Where is this shackle? Remember, I am...
