the kit i make is 1/4" cnc laser cut steel, 32 bolt pattern. welds to the face of the lip so the tire isn't seating against the weld. Same kit i've been running on my XJ for years. Now that i'm swapping axles i'll be making another set for my new 6 lug wheels too.
A kit for 4 wheels (8 rings) is 200.00 2 more rings for a spare will make the total 250.00
I havn't shipped a set in a while so i'll weigh the rings i've got in the shop and get you a shipping quote. PM me so i remember to get that for you tomorow.
hex head bolts and nylock nuts can be bought for 10.00/wheel but most people choose to buy thier own hardware locally so they can pick out the exact ones they want. I chose button head allen bolts for mine.
here are some pics.
you could weld my DIY kit to them, but you may have a clearance issue with the nuts on the back side of the inner ring with a stock wheel.
Probably be best to pick up some cheap steelies and weld on a diy kit.
Let me know if you end up needing some rings.
the front bumper like the one in the pics is about 500.00 But they are custom made to order so you can make changes as you see fit. The two mounting plates for the rear bumper are just 1/4" steel laser cut with holes for the factory mounting points. Thats why i use the class III hitch to finish tieing it into the jeep. I'm not sure how the MJ rear bumpers attach.
yea, its kind of hard to see in the pics, but there is a 4x6 1/4" steel plate on each side where the stock bumper mounted. so you have those 8 bolts, the lower kickers going to the hitch, and both side brace pieces that go to the frame.
It's not that you were miss quoted just the xj leaf will NOT work on an mj
Dave, he is not asking about XJ leaves. He is asking if he can bolt an XJ axle into an MJ without moving the spring perches.
Answer: No.
thanks, thats what i needed to know. looks like we will be doing TNT's ubolt eliminators now.
ok, i think i may have been missunderstood. I'm talking about the width of the leaf spring mounts. do they compare to the width of a cherokee? will an XJ axle bolt up as a spring over on an MJ?
I've got a buddy buying my XJ axles to put under his MJ, I havn't been able to go over there and get a measurement on the spring center pin width and he hasn't either. My question is, will an XJ rear axle bolt up as a spring over without having to move the spring perches on the axle?

Only had an MJ long enough to strip all the parts off of it and sell them :D
Maybe i'll buy one again and actually keep it.
I'm near charlotte, NC
Oh, yea...here is the MJ I was refering to:
great progress. Glad to hear the engine swap is going well. Your throttle cable should be at your door today if you haven't already gotten it.
Oh, and the problem i was having with my 99 when you were here...its gone now. Are you like some kind of Jeep whisperer or something???
