My 2001
coast-to-coast-to-coast adventure story
I ended my "Jeep Era" in tha fall
of 2007 when I sold my old reliable YJ for a somewhat newer VW Jetta
Wagon.
In fact, this whole section is very old at this point. Consider it an
homage to an earlier time...
In '97, it was stock 2001 in Maine 2001 @ Devil's Tower

The Suspension Project
During the late winter of 1998, I completed a suspension refit
including brand new Rancho RS-9000 shocks.
Also installed ... a beautiful Borla stainless steel cat-back system

just browse the photos below.
Safety First
I never, ever do ANYTHING under a vehicle
until it
is fully supported and wheels chocked!
Fail to do this and the result could be very
simple - YOU DIE.
Rancho 2" suspension kit w/ RS-9000 shocks
-- Front suspension
Installation included new leaf springs, spring plates and
U-bolts.
Also replaced were all bushings, shocks and steering stabilizer.
-- Rear suspension
