CWLONGSHOT Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 I have a couple sets of factory rims and I would really like to use them! My favorites are the Jeep 10 spokes. I do have the center caps for them. Image Not Found I have a set of Trexus 31" swampers to put on them. I feel they are gonna rub on my LCA's in the front. I have a 3" lift now and its going up another 3" come spring, so its not the height I am worried about. I ordered a set of 1.25 spacers just incase. What do you think?

87manche Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 I have the same rims. 31x10.5s rub at full lock. and I mena only at FULL lock. I can turn the wheel to within and 1/8th of a turn of lock. I plan on just shimming up the adjustments on the axle. As soon as I get them unstuck. I also read about using WJ LCAs, they have a bend in them to clear tires. 1.25" spacer should be enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87manche Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 body's in great shape. Nice and straight, not a lot fo rust. I'v got 2 places on the sheetmetal that need taken care of. In the spring I'm gonna pull the bed and do like 512tr and por-15 the whole frame. This is planned to go with new brake lines from the master back.

CWLONGSHOT Posted February 11, 2006 Author Share Posted February 11, 2006 I had to do the rear brake lines as well...thing its the way it is for MJ's! Doing it with the bed off is smart!! I have rust the bed is prety bad. I cut out what I could find and covered with the diamond plate. The rockers are gone but not aweful, i will be fabbing up some rocker protection to fill the area back in. the cab corners rusted thru this winter....that was a surprise. The rear flairs MUST get attention this spring as well. but the drive line is excellent, and the truck only has 66,000 ORIG miles on it!!!
