Smile suspension

I am interested in buying the coil over front and back suspension from off road evolution and was wondering if there is anybody that have this setup and can give me their ideas about it. I have a 2007 rubicon unlimited and my wife has said I can go uo to 37 inch tires for the time being.:

Ctimrun has this setup with a TeraFlex Long Arm kit. You can read his review here:

I am also intersted in going coil over suspension. I am currently running 3" FT ultimate suspension.

I am also in the process of upgrading my front and rear to solid D60s. Would the coil over system compatiable with my new setup.

What exactly do i require to upgrade to coil over system. I am thinking of doing the coil over for just the front.

Yes, the Evo coilovers would be compatible with your solid 60s, but you will want to wait until you have the new axles before doing the coilovers since some welding to the axle is required. Your FT control arms will work great with the coilovers.

if he's going that route, he might just want to go with a sub-assembly from solid without the mounts on the axle.

No, a regular axle assembly will be needed as the coilover bracket is welded to the existing stock mounts.

well, look at that! I thought the old stuff was cut off.

Do they make a kit for a new axle?
