All,
I just got a new daily driver (an old 1985 Mercedes 300SD) and I can finally start turning my Jeep into a weekend rig instead of a road hog.
I want 35" tires. No way around it!
I also have an ARB Bull Bar that will go on this thing once it is lifted and I know that sucker weighs enough to really affect the front stance. I also want to get a Sagauro rear bumper and carrier but they aren't making them right now.
I am going to go with a 4" Superlift and I need some help figuring out how to get another 1.5" in the front and the back.
I like the idea of using OME HD front springs but I don't know if that's the best route and I also don't know which shocks I need to run with that height setup. I'd love some help on that.
As for the rear, I'm just going to use Rusty's 2" spacers (might cut them down some depending on the rear bumper or not) to get a little more lift but also I don't know which shocks I should run back there.
Any input here would be a big help...hopefully I'll have all of this stuff ordered in the next month or two and be able to take it out on the beach before it gets too cold.
Here is how she sits currently:
Not for long.
