body lift

[justinquilliam]

would it be possible to do a body lift on a comanche. even if i had to cut the cab off the sub frame and box in new metal how hard would it really be.

 

 

i'm still lookin for a new or used bed or even just the sides.

i'm one hour east of pittsburgh and willing to travel to pick one up for the right price. i need a 7 footer.

My guess is ... very hard. Are you an automotive or structural engineer? The front of an MJ is unibody. Are you qualified to analyze the strength of what you would be cutting off and to design an entire new frame to replace it? I'm a licensed architect with post-graduate work in structural engineering, and I wouldn't touch that on a bet.

:agree:

 

if you have the skills to do this and have it be structurally sound, take HALF that skill, if even that much and put it into fabbing up a proper suspension lift.

 

it's a bad idea (no offense)
