Spring Over Flex

[wallysheata]

I'm posting here cause it's tech related :shush: I just found a few shots from jeep safari of the ol YJ flexing and thought i'd share what a nice spring over set up will flex like vs the stiff ol spring under. I debated for quite some time as to whether or not i'd like spring over, and i think these pics speak for themselves :agree:

those are some serous long travel shocks.. I guess you have a custom hoop in the front? Do you use limiting straps? Looks sweet... Tim

Yup 14" travel bilstiens :agree: Just posted a thread with pics showing my rear shock mounts...in those pics i was still running the 9" travel Procrap ES1000 from my old 4" lift. I had em set JUST right but they were limiting my droop in the rear, i should get a little more travel out of the rear now that i have the new bilstiens out back. I'm going up 21 road this weekend so i'll be SURE to post pics ;)

A good flexing jeep and then he threw on some full width axels which made it flex even more.

I'm sure there are - you just haven't came across them yet. :)

I haven't seen Joe Dillard for ages though. I doubt he comes around here anymore...

Wally, Joe, which springs are you guys using?

I've got stock front Waggy in the front and an XJ rear (gotta keep something from the old rig, right?) 'reversed'. Pics look sweet....wish mine was done (getting there, but it won't make it to Moab next week).
