Wheelbase stretch or axle travel? They are 12" coils directly mounted to the axle, so it gets near 12" before it starts to bind up on the trackbar. Probably 2 or 3 inches more if you articulate one side vs the other based on the coil location compare to the tire.
@@WhiteCollarRedneck I’ve got some more questions about the setup, can’t find anyone willing to help, is there a way I can message you outside of the comments?
@@WhiteCollarRedneck I want to swap to coilover but I’m getting mix feed back. This Jeep tj of mine is my daily and take it to Moab all the time so I just wanna know if it’s worth it for a daily driver.
@@Ben17soN It is definitely better performance and comfort. The front is far easier to do than the back. But if it is mostly daily, a good long arm kit is just easier and probably 85% as good
@@SaneSuperMoto We are pretty sure the front is a TJ D44 but the rear seems to be a JK D44 based on the shock mounts. They were both in the Jeep when we got it
@@markbrites1907 We cut out the lower shock mount and upper shock mount and coil bucket. Basically mounted coil over in same location as original shock. Allowed for the longest shock length without interfering with front steering/swaybar

My bucket list is short but coilovers on my beat up TJ is at the top
All that careful cutting and hammering around a brake line….and I cut it anyway. Awesome
Did the inside of the coilovers end up contacting the frame under heavy articulation? They look extremely close.
No problems.
How much stretch did you achieve on the front?

@WhiteCollarRedneck sorry I meant Wheelbase. Thanks for the info
Curious on the control arm setup.
Rubicon express long arm
@@WhiteCollarRedneck so I can use stock control arm mount brackets?
@@gk_sofresh9917 we reinforced the stock axle control arm bracket and built the lower shock mount into it.

Does he drive it on highway much. How tj handle on highway with coilovers
Drove it 7 hours to the Dunes and 7 hours back. Was a tad front high but better ride than stock. It still has a front Currie Antirock sway bar

I'm aiming for 4 to 5 inches on my TJ....I was thinking coilovers and hyme jointed suspension and 1 ton steering
Is that a stock axel?
Not to that Jeep. It is a D44 with a factory Rubicon locker
@@WhiteCollarRedneck is it a tj d44 or a jk d44

@@WhiteCollarRedneck looks like you put the lower CO mounts on the back of the front axle? Why’s that and what did you cut out there thanks !
