Currently Working on mine, but when it's done, the bottom of the frame rail will be a ride height of 30".

Here's a link if ya wanna check out the build up of it.

2LoudDodge, that's a pretty impressive build-up you've got there. I hope everything works out more or less the way you've planned it. Be sure to post pictures when your done.

So far it's going great. Just got done welding up the coilover brackets for the rear axle, as well as all the shock towers.

My rig prolly won't be as high as some of the ones on this board, but, I think it will be a capable rock crawling rig. I was going to put the frame rail at 35" from the ground, but decided that was way too high. 30" is even too high, but don't really have much of a choice if I don't want the tires to rub.

Chrysler wasn't thinking about building these rigs to make them upgradeable. If I lower the rig anymore, I'll have to move the body mount further back and cut into the door alittle to give tire clearance. That I don't want to do.

Anyway, I'm curious too, who here really has the highest rig? Come-on, post some pics! :)

OH MY GOD

It's got a dana 44, 49" tires, 231 Transfer Case, and NO, I repeat, NO Hydro Assist. You got to be kidding. I say drive it once on any kind of trail, and that front end and steering is going to blow up! Hell, it'll prolly do that just driving it down the street.

That transfer case would hold up fine if it was built. But I bet it's still stoc, not even an SYE kit on it or wide chain.
