2.5-4 inch lift on an early cj5

I have finally found an early cj5 I am planning to buy. I was wondering if you guys could post a few pics of lifted early cj5s from 2.5"-4". I may be able to get some 2.5 leafs really cheap so I am planning to do a 2.5 spring with 1.5 shackles and hopefully 34inch skinny swampers. So please post me some pics. Thank you

 

my 58 CJ5 2 1/2" springs and longer shackles on front 285/16 tires

 

2.5" Springs, 1/2" shackle, 32x12.5x15 10" wide wheels. Ideal IMO 8)

 

Standard shackle disclaimer: Shackles lift 1/2 the increase in their length, and longer shackles won't help steering precision and wander. A 3" increase in shackle length is a lot. JMO - forget the longer shackles, install new eye bushings and copy Billy's setup.

 

Billys rig is exactly what I am hoping for could you post some specs(steering, axles, etc...) and maybe some pics on it thanks a lot.

 

soo lynn, billy, or generally anyone else... what's the width of those pie cutters?? i like the height, but want something to fill the wheel well a little it more.

 

Here's another shot of 2.5" on 33x12.50x15 on 10" wide rims

 

thanks for the pics guys, keep them coming!

 

thanks billy. Animal is a sweet ride. How does it do. I would love to see some action pics. Also is it fairly stable on the road. I am going to have to drive mine to the trails. I know with the 134 its a slow ride but it'll be worth it. I can't wait to get one. Thanks.

 

Animal is not really that tall. Billy's just short. R)
