    Suspension parts...

    Anyone know of a good source for spring perches, spring hangers, and shackle hangers for 2.5" wide springs? I found a website a few weeks ago that had everything, and was priced well, but I can't find it now for the life of me.

    No, I didn't bookmark it, because I'm a dumbass

    I think Dave-O got his from Jeep, or found out later that they were cheaper than the ones he ended up with (not really sure)

    www.currieenterprises.com would have some real high kwality stuff in you want a little California butt-love

    I used anti-wrap perches from Rubicon Express. Little pricy but high Kwality. I also used shock mounts from them too. They are good lookin sonofabatches.

    not really sure what the differance is but when i did my last spring over on a friends 5 we went to a trailer parts supplier and bought 2 perches for like $5 that were for a 3,000lb axle. Worked great and were really cheap!

    Thanks, but the site I found had all this stuff--spring perches, spring hangers, shackle mounts, HD shackles--all weld on stuff. Very reasonably priced too.

    This is really pissin' me off!

    That's probably what I'll end up doing...However, I think I'm gonna try and cannibalize my YJ frame for the front shackle mounts and spring hangers.

    Thanks for the info on the pipe, that'll save me alot of time and trouble!
