Have you seen the build on pirates?   It is a good one.  Alot of money in that build.  If it was about 3 inches or so lower it would be perfect  nln

2" lift? That is all?

Yea it is sad.  His jeep sits close to the same height as mine on 40's and he still has 22 inches under his belly.

I just can't see that thing having much flex in the rear! Looks like it would contact the wheel well on a curb. I know it is bad though.

You dont need much uptravel to have plenty of flex. Limiting uptravel doesnt limit your droop

Yeah, I got that. Just used to seeing more clearance. I would like to build one like that someday. Find a wrecked TJ somewhere.

That second Jeep is awesome!

Alex, I told Will this weekend that I would consider trading my 4.5" springs for 3.5" if I could find someone who wanted too, and Will said "You talk to Alex too mcuh".

Lower COG is where it's at.  My 1"  BL is coming off.

That jeep is sitting on 40" of rubber. How much clearance you want?  ;D It looks deceptive being so low to the ground.
