I know it's retarded, but humour me... Jeep TJ/YJ Lowering Kits?
Forgive my blasphemy Jeep and 4x4 fans, but I was just daydreaming in my head while surfing craigslist... An idea came to me. Getting an old Jeep Wrangler, lowering it a few inches (i.e. not slamming it) and for a streetable beach buggy vibe...
Google has only come up with lift kits, for obvious reasons.
Anybody know of any lowering springs/kits for Jeep YJ/TJ's that exist?
Quick photoshop of my idea:

I doubt any chick would give a fuck about a Jeep Wrangler.

IIRC YJ's are spring under, so all you'd have to do is get some new U bolts and some lowering blocks. Only real issue other than tire rubbing would be steering geometry.

I think the stock leaf springs have a positive arch so you can get springs made or the stock ones rearched so that they are basically flat or with a slight negative arch and that'll drop you down. If you want to mow your lawn with it, you can probably put in a one inch drop block between the axles and spring.
