Re: Spring hanger/shock mount skid plate
Cool!! Be careful welding, Paul...disconnect both pos & neg battery cables & touch together to do an auto shutoff on the computers, then wait 15 minutes.
Got that tidbit from my service manager, he said there's something like 6 different computer modules to protect from frying out.
Use a ratchet strap to hold up the shock.

Re: Spring hanger/shock mount skid plate
I took off the rear sway bar per advice from some XJ friends. The rear gets a little bit more articulation. Around town I don't notice. That could be because I drive it like a Cadillac....slow and smooth.... 
I just got to get on the front plates now.
When welded on, can you still remove the spring easily?

Re: Spring hanger/shock mount skid plate
I don't believe it can ever touch. I ran Long Ranch and inspected mine and had painted that area so I could see if it did. I stretched everything including my rear bumper and they did not touch the spring. The first set they had them a little tall on the front curl. I had it shortened before the production run and now use those two longer ones for door stops.

Re: Spring hanger/shock mount skid plate
Should be able to unbolt everything from the back up, then the front bolt and lift up, back and out. You planning on hauling a big load? Adding a 50 cal and ammo and need more spring rate? Ahhh rocket launcher that's the ticket. Then there is grinder and cut off blades and worse case break out the blue wrench.

Re: Spring hanger/shock mount skid plate
Hunner, May I say again? YOU ROCK.
Thanks for the torque specs.
Right now I'm in Park City, UT getting in some end of the season tracks.
