Ok well im debating what i want to do, i have a buddy with a jeep XJ, cant remember the year but its in the 80s, it has a 2.5l and a manual.
anyway id kinda like to know my options when it comes to parts, do i keep the stock axles, do i have to go something bigger, what motors drop in fairly easy?
anything relavant please let me know, i know nothing about the XJ, or jeep for that matter...
anyway TTB
ive heard from a few people that i should use my truck as a tow rig and get something else to off road because the TTB wont flex enough, ive also heard that with some fairly easy mods (longer radius bars, removed antisway, shocks, and shims under springs) that you can get alot of travel out of them...
Im not up to changing the shock mounting points unless someone can show me where and show me how to do it...
Again any info please.
My plans would be 4.88's powertraxs lockright lockers front and rear, and 6inch lift.
