I thought the same thing until i seen he was paid member.. Maybe it's one of the owners wanting to cause some drama to bump up their hits?

Don't talk about AMC like that. The XJ problems are from Renault and Chrysler.

Def want to see that setup.

TBH, can stock shocks even extend that far up. I'd be scared to just sit in it. Hell, it must always feel like its off camber on the trails lol

Not even close. Stock shocks wouldn't attach with a 5" block, and the front coils would be dangerously under load all the time.

I like AMC. Only problem I have is all the vac hoses on Renix, but the Renix motor is made by Renault/Bendix. The stuff AMC designed was great.

Bent? Too much work. Four rods on each side with two nuts at each end of each threaded rod, acting as jamb nuts.
