Otis Nice Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 jeepforums.com When I lifted my Cherokee I got a ton of help from the guys over there. I'd recommend it if you aren't already a member. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BloodRed Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 3x Jeepforums. What engine does the MJ have? If you are looking to "go MONSTROUS" you might need to add some power via engine swap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 NAXJA is good as well, they do cover MJ's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TN94Z28 Posted August 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2010 2.8l but planning either the 3.4l swap or just the 350 sbc reason i use "monstrous" is because everybody seems to go trail size like 4-8in lift and i was thinkning at least 10 and should be a cheap project when i only have 150 in the truck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3.1cutlass Posted August 6, 2010 Report Share Posted August 6, 2010 Fuck JeepForums, check out the Comanche Club. Way better info and it is specific to your truck. Post some pics. I had an 88 longbed 4.0l with the factory rollbar. I would like to get another one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to get another one. the big problem i have with ALL the JEEP specific forums is that they concentrate on trail type rigs with dana 44's about 33in tires and etc. im lookin to go Dana 60 and 70 with 38's http://www.myspace.com/boroltz/photos/24405867 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just depends on what you are looking for. I might suggest Pirate off road or Mall Crawler's. They are a little more open to the non-standard.
