The Florida Crawler

ill post up my build for my 92 xj. this may take a while, so be patient.

Started life as a 92xj, 4.0, d30/d35, np231, and a ax15. i recieved the jeep on trade for some labor work on another jeep. just needed a new clutch setup..


it was all stock with the exception of a goofy pipe bumper.






first thing up was an intake manifold swap from late model 4.0.

i ordered up some Rusty's 4.5" coils and made a trip to the junkyard to pick up some s10 leaf springs. also grabbed a set of JK rubicon shocks for the lift.








i had a few driveline vibes so instead of doing a tcase crossmember drop i decided to modify the factory crossmember to have an internal drop.



made my doors removeable.

picked up some JK steelies, some spacers and some 31" CL tires

isnt a jk 5/5.5 bolt pattern instead of 5/4.5 on the xj?

It is, I should have said adaptors instead of spacers

i really dislike spacers/adapters..after having one pull the studs thru it makes ya think about ever using em again.of course that was on a vehicle with hydraulics that hopped off the ground..but a heavy wheel and tire cant be much better.im considering a set on the rear of the cj to make it even f/r but i can also just narrow the front..and it would be safer
