Cool, sounds like a plan, i appreciate the help so much

Patrick, the guy that did thoes swaps, Cory R. Longnecker, is a good friend of mine from Louisville, KY i was there when he did both the leaf sprung swap and the coil sprung exploders, they are mean, that leaf sprung sploder is sitting on 35's and still has that much room.

Yeah i will have to cut the crossmember that holds the diff and LCA's on.

I don't know if you guy's remember me talking about the exploder on 38.5's with D60's front and rear 1/4 elliptical in the rear.....well thats cory's exploder




lemme know if you can't see the pics

My stock lines are only about 6" long. My hard line is mounted all the way at the bottom of my frame

Patrick i jsut thought of something, my hard line may be mounted lower than yours since i have a frame and your uni. I don't know. Carl i'll look into it, if anything i know it won't be anymore than 20" long, i jsut went outside and looked. Patrick how much are yours extended?

Carl i will also need a 6" longer rear line (single line) with stock fittings(97 exploder sport)

OK... I will let him know...
DO you happen to know the size of your fittings ... He does heavy hydrolic and motorcycles on the side..
He may not know what size ford fittings are ...

NO problem ... I would think its about a 6 or 8 AN.. BUt I am not sure either... The best thing might be to bring him an explorer brake line so we surely get the right size..
I will check the local boneyards..And see what I can find..
I need to talk to him abuot lines for mine as well.. If all goes well with my test drive..
THen I am going up to 4" and then I gotta mount my flares and trim the fenders...
33's are next.....

I know it doesnt sound like much but on a grand Cherokee ..33's are a milemarker... The next step up ( 35's) will take 8" of lift and I am not about to go that high on coil springs....
SO thats about it for a while....Although I am sure that it will be fine..
Hell I am almost unstoppable now.....LOL......
Cant wait to hit the trails again...
