Ob_tj's transformation of the green lantern

[ob_tj]

I thought that it was about time that my TJ got some upgrades!
I started by getting some new shocks. It had some off brand ones that were pretty shot out.
I thought shocks rebound themselves??
I went ahead and slapped some fox 2.0 resi shocks on it. Next up is synergy coil springs!

Nice buddy!

 

[RockyJk]

Nice! Can you tell a difference on the ride?

 

[ob_tj]

Nice buddy!

Thanks bro it's about time I started to work on this thing!

Nice! Can you tell a difference on the ride?

Oh yeah big time! And I'm sure with the new coils it will ride even better!

Those Fox shocks looks sweet!

Are the Synergy coils you're looking at 3 inch, and how do they ride? My TJ needs new coils and I'm trying to decide on a brand.

I have yet to get them they are still on order. Should be here in a week or so. I've just heard they ride well

Well the build list just got a little longer! Due to the fact that my fiancé is pregnant I'll be ditching the soft top for a hard top, I'll also be getting a Rock Hard 4x4 cage just for a little sense of security. So if anyone with kids that has a two door with advice it will greatly appreciated!

Well the fox shocks that I had put on just didn't fit the way that I wanted them to so I took them off and went with some bilsteins

I thought you were getting Rancho? Be prepared for them bilsteins to leak lol

Edit: I'm surprised they aren't already leaking [emoji12]

You know I was really torn between the two. Hopefully they don't start to leak until I get rid of it!

Just bought a Ford 8.8 axle for my TJ. It has disk brakes and a Tru Trac I plan on doing Chromo shafts and maybe a regear to 4.88s!
