Thanks BlackZZR. I have a 4" lift now. Just looking for more room as she still rubs the 33" tires.

Im running a 3 1/2 skyjacker and 1 3/4 shackles and was looking for just a bit of lift to clear the 33's and decided to make the body kit. I made 1 3/4 inch pucks from 6061 alunimun. This is still my DD and runs great up and down the pass, not too tall and does great twisting up. Just my :2:

Another solution to the fan shroud to fan alignment is leave the radiator and shroud in the stock location and use a "Motor-Up" kit. It replaces the stock motor mounts with new ones which move the front of the engine up to properly align the fan with the radiator. A secondary benefit is improved driveline angle.
I did a 1" body lift on my YJ and used the corresponding "Motor-Up" kit. Works great!!!!Never the last trail!:cactus:
