Here the axles are at 107". The front will still need to come up about 3" to get the belly clearence right.

Once I get the suspension done and the engine up and running again, I'll be changing it up to be a 3 seater and working on cosmetics. The rear quarter panels of the tub are in rough shape. They have rusted in spots, then bondoed over, then layed on its side a few times, then bondoed again, then beat on again. I'll be cutting alot out and replacing with 1/8" sheet metal. not trying to build a show jeep, just want to start fresh and earn my own dents.

What are you looking at for ride height and flex? was aiming for 107"wheelbase, but I think it's going to land at at probably 108 -108.5" to keep from having to redo alot of the chassis. belly height I'm looking at 18". Coilovers are 16", and going to start out with around 8" up and 8" down, but will adjust according to how the "real world" makes me. Went with 200/250 spring rate in the front and 160/200 in the rear.
