Title: SOA/SUA
Post by: shotgun on June 02, 2006, 07:35:05 AM

Jeffy, can you describe your SOA/SUA setup.

I have a freind contemplating it. We keep getting to the point of how do we balance the lift.  What we are thinking so far is  buying perches for the front and  using his RC 3.5 inch springs and a buggy spring setup in the rear.

Initially, that's probably the best way to go about it.  I'm running my 3.5" TM leafs in the back.  Without the trackbar the rear does flex pretty good.  Not as much drop as the front but still decent.  It's probably around 60/40 (http://www.4bangerjp.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=45).

Running buggy leafs, he'll have around 1.5" extra lift.  If you look at the pict of my Jeep (http://www.4bangerjp.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1350), you'll get an idea of what it will look like.  I went back to stock shackles and it sits level with my hard top on.

Cost wise...  I bought the perches for $30 and bought some rear YJ leaf springs for $50 I think.  It's really cheap if you're already lifted.
