Re: The Fuse is Lit...

Thought I would put the TJ jeep springs in..



I had read that they fit very well in the stock location but I was still surprised by how well they fit.



Since I had the heavy duty springs out back, the coils were very thick and the jeep springs were much smaller diameter. That lead to quite a bit of slack between the frame and spring as you can see here...



I am sure that most of the slack would have been taken out when tightened, but I did not see the need of it if I could tighten it some. So, I massaged the coil retainer with a great big hammer.

First I flattened the middle and then around the edges to make it more level



ended up with this



In these pic you can see how that the fit is much better



and final fit looked good as well



As you can see I also took a pic of my high dollar fluid retainment system, if anyone is interested I could hook you up for a small fee

I also have the lowering blocks on and I will try to post some pics of that later.

Hope you like it!
