Title: lowering a jeep
Post by: BigFrank on January 26, 2015, 09:32:14 PM
my bud asked me too take on a job that  im shure  I can doo but  its kinda the opposite  of what most people  doo  he has a 90 something  jeep that someone before he got  it had  installed a  lift kit into it  taller springs and  the spring over the axles  he wants  it lowered back too stock springs  under the axles   it seems pretty straight forward process   just wondering  if  anybody has anything too look out for before  I start  cutting stuff apart ==wgm ==wgm ==wgm ==wgm ==wgm ==wgm ==wgm

Get some new spring pads, the old ones probably won't like being cut off. I put some on before. I just set them where I thought they would go and bolted the axles in. If the angles look right, put a tack on them, undo the u bolts, and weld them permanently.
