    3.5" lift (currently), HP dana60 front, 14 bolt rear, 5.38 gears, detroit f&r, 38" TSL's on H1 wheels
    So I'm brand new here and really enjoyed seeing you building what I hope to. I just have been stock piling axles, wheels and tires, lockers and gears. Now I'm at the point to start putting it all together and I'm overwhelmed. I currently have a 3.5" IRO lift and 33's but my build is going to be 38 TSL's with a HP Dana 60 upfront and a 14 bolt rear. Is the "best" option to go with 3 or 4 link up front and the same in rear or keep leafs in the rear, what? You look like you know what your doing so I feel comfortable asking if you dont mind.

    4 link up front takes a lot of work. That’s why me and my buddy just 3 linked the front of mine. I’d like to 4 link the rear but takes a lot of money which I need to put that somewhere else into the Jeep right now. If you got it though go ahead and 4 link the rear and 3 link the front.

    Coilovers ordered and will be here next week. Got them from accutune and had them tuned as well. Very happy with the customer service.

    Thanks means a lot buddy. I couldn’t have even imagine to be building something like this if it wasn’t for my good friend. He’s helped me with this so much.

    Build is going to slow down some. We’ve been given land and are trying to start on building a house in the beginning of next year. Hopefully the Jeep will get done before then but we shall see.

    Is there anyway you can give the specs you go for the Coilovers and Springs.. Ive been looking and cannot seem to figure out what i should get. Mine is currently at 6" lift which i'm fine with, but i have no idea what i need for Compression / Rebound levels and Spring rates for a dual spring setup.

    14”- 140
    16”- 225

    Really just gotta see what works better for you is all buddy. Get in touch with accutune off-road and they can help you out with what will work better for you.
