Glad to see the yj will get used, I almost picked it up from Jason, just didn't have the means to fix it up. Can't wait to see what the finished product looks like.

Got the suspension in today....just need to finish the drop pitman arm and TC drop.  Gotta add in the brake relocation brackets too.  Couldn't get the bolts out to do the relocation today....so will work on that tomorrow maybe.  Then the floor boards will go in sometime soon too... will try and get a picture or two tomorrow and post 'em up.

Think they could be salvaged for a CJ?  Maybe a leaf or two inserted to give a tad more boost... or... are the shackles any amount of lift over a stock CJ shackle?

My pop might be interested if they're just going to take up space.

Possibly... to use them to add a leaf or two might boost it a little.  as for any amount of lift....couldn't tell ya that....don't know if they were stock or not.  I also have two or three left from the swap I did on my '89 (also settting in the garage collecting dust) two of those ones were from the front and weren't really worn out.  Just let me know if ya want any of them. I have no real use for them now.

If I'm not mistaken YJ springs are 2.5" wide and CJ's are 2". Something to double check.
