Well if you actually plan to wheel this thing,then youll need to go long arm.You could try some super extended drop brackets but they would probably tear off.

Second this, you should go long arm. I have Rustys kit and love it. Best improvement i ever made. Great on and off road. Besure to do something about your steering too. At 10" too i have a YJ steering conversion and a 3" drop pitman arm and will go to a over the knuckle steering with ram assist in future.

BTW: be ready to get longer shocks and brake lines, the long arms flex like crazy

Wherre can I find a YJ steering conversion? I'll go wheeling but not serrious rock crawling. I have the 3 inch drop pitman arm. Thanks.

Go to a junk yard and pull the steering linkage out of a YJ. You have to lengthen the drag link and add a little bend on the passenger side to clear the track bar mount. Thats it

Does a YJ steering of a 91 work?

Give me a yell!!!

Almost everybody is making long arm kit now,add to the list Tera Flex and I believe Pro Comp has one now.If your going to buy a kit Id say go w/ Rusty's.If you can do some fab work,you can shorten RE's TJ arms.You could also build the complete set-up!ZPD has an excellent write-up.
