[QUOTE="Bateman, post: 756808, member: 15756"] Figured I would keep track of this Jeep I acquired with a build thread. I’m sure I’ll need some help or opinions soon enough. 93 YJ. I bought it from a friend for $500. Originally a 4 cylinder, but a previous owner swapped in a new 4.0 from Jasper. AX-15 Trans and 4.10 gears. I proceeded to demolish the Dana 35 in no time at all so the Jeep ended up on jack stands and I started a “build” yet again. The goal for this Jeep is to be low and stable. It most likely won’t do anything great, but I want it to be well rounded enough to bash some trails, crawl some rock pits and drive to the beach at 70mph. Parts I have acquired: 8.8 rear axle with LSD and 4.10’s. RuffStuff brackets and hardware. Using factory high pinion 30 up front for now. CAD deleted and using TJ shafts up front for bigger u joints. General Spring Wagoneer 7 leafs for roughly 2” of lift and 4” of total stretch. Parts Mike steering box relocation bracket. Jeep came with a SYE and Adam’s driveshaft. Stainless braided brake lines. Poly bushings for the suspension. 1/2” lift boomerang shackles. I’ve cut a ton of metal out of the fender areas for clearance. Will do a 1” body lift if I need more uptravel clearance. So far I’ve got about $1700 in the whole thing. [/QUOTE]
