  1. I welded together a spare tire mount for my bed that looks reall good and is secure. Only problem is that i welded it to my roll bar. Another option is the in bed spare tire mounts sold online that bolt onto the floor of the bed and the tire mounts onto them at an angle
  2. I broke my drivers side tail light while pulling a tree out of the road during a snow storm. The only ones ive found are incredibly expensive. Does anyone know where i could find one or maybe another truck that has similiar tail lights?
  3. An. Excuse my typo
  4. And yes rough country does make and mj lift kit but they are idiots and send you the same shackles as the xj lift kit and expect you to be happy with it.
  5. Its an auto. Ax-15 i believe that is. My vacuum system is completely screwed up due to the fact that when i found the truck a rat had eaten through all of the lines. Its doing fine with the 33s on. And i do go wheeling about every other weekend. I just want to save some gas if possible. I know some say i shouldnt complain if i wanted bigger tires but I'm only a highschool kid and i pay for my own gas
  6. I just installed my 4.5 inch rough country lift kit. Had to fabricate the shackles to be an inch taller because my springs were very worn. I will be running 33s in a day or two opposed to my current 30s. What type of gas mileage should i be expecting? I get around 15 with my 30s. Also i have heard that some junkyard axles have gearing that could be swapped with comanches for better gas mileage, which would be best? I have a 4.0. I will be driving back and forth from school and work which is just around town. Thanks!
  7. Hmm. The only problem i have with these aals are the size of them. I looked up the part number and its supposed to add 1.5-2 inches of lift. The shackles are 2 inch and looking at the way the aals will fit on i just can't see getting any more than 3.5 inches. I guess ill just put it all on and if its not good enough ill call rough country
  8. Okay gotcha. So I'm guessing i will get around two inches from the new shackles and around 2 inches from the aal. I believe this kit is meant to provide 4 inches in the back to level out the truck.
  9. I recieved my 4.5 inch rough country lift kit today which includes new coils, shocks shackles, brake line relocation kit, t case drop kit, rear add a leaf, sway bar drop kit, and lower control arms. I am confused as to how lift will be achieved in the rear, since adding a leaf spring on a comanche will decrease the height since it is a spring under vehicle. Maybe I'm just missing something here
  10. Yes that is the one. And you're right. Does the second one require shocks? 600 would probably be my budget and that doesnt include the price of shocks
  11. Thanks so much you guys. And yes this is a rough country kit. And no it is not an xj kit. It is an mj kit. I said i believe it has blocks. I couldnt remember. Is rough country a bad option?
  12. So 4.5 would look good with 33's and perform well?
  13. The kit includes an adjustable trackbar new upper and lower control arms (not adjustable) a transfer case drop kit, 4 new nitrogen shocks, lifted coild for front, brake line drop, blocks and add a leaf for rear. I think thats about it
  14. I am planning on 33 inch tires and i am going to use my current 15 inch wheels. Not sure about back spacing.
  15. I am very new to all this and suspension is not a strong point of mine
