GreenSwimmingWildman Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 So here is the start of a long project..... 1989 MJ Renix L6 4.0 Rustys intake kit w spacer Everything else stock or made stock from the J yard 30 front 35 rear 170k original miles New trans Plans I'm thinking of going all Rusty's offroad with this one. I've been doing a lot of shopping and reading and from the census I think that's the best way to go for the money and quality. 4.5 lift w 31's is what I'm thinking. Any suggestions? I'll keep this post updated as I go along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackBeast Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I have rusty lift and I really don't like it personally. It's not terrible but to each there own..I also did go up a few inches higher tho. POST PICTS WHEN YA can! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hackedmj Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I would suggest you reconsider Rustys. I have bought two Jeeps built from Rustys and have about replaced it all. Poorly designed period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87shortbed comanche Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 For me when i started my build i got a 4.5 rubicon express kit for cheap. wheeled it for a while. then went to a custom long arm and a 8.5 lift. If it was me look at BDS or Clayton and start with their long arms. it will ride smoother and handle better. With jeeps it is a learning process, it may be a bit more money at the start but your jeep will be better off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
