Yea the 14" is too much. I think I'm going to at least cut and lower the brackets on the front axle (about 3-4" off) and take off the blocks in the back (~2").

...so you have about a 6" lift on yours? The only thing is with this being a 4 door I don't think I could hack as much out of the back fenders as you did. I think the rear could be slid back more though.

Yeah I have somewhere around 6" on mine they are 5.5" coil springs that have sagged an inch or so but the new coil buckets make up for that inch. With yours being on 37s I think you can drop in a good amount before you have any issues with body rub. Whats the plan for your current xj once you get this one?

For the younguns, we might even spot a rare being out on the drill field tomorrow, called a steinberg. he sets up stages and shit. he once wheeled, now trees grow through the engine compartment of his 'ranger'.
