looking good. the biggest bitch imho is the leaf spring bolts, and it seems youve conquered those. shock bolts arent bad of a fix at all.  |

actually we only had trouble with one leaf spring bolt and it was just really really really really tight. i was really surprised. it was just the shock bolts that had no chance. but i just need a welder and ill be good to go to weld in the bar pin eliminators if i cant extract the broken bolts

i wouldnt bother with weld since that area is shitty metal to begin with. id drill the bolts out, cut the floor in the trunk and bolt in the BPEs that way. thats just what i would do, but there are plenty of options to fix that. those shock bolts are such cheap crap

Did some more work tonight. Had trouble extracting the broken upper rear shock bolts so we just welded the BPE's up there and hoping it will be solid. got the rear shocks in with that as well. also fixed the rear brake line by putting in a new one all the way up to the master cylinder and put in the extension so i wont have brake line limiting straps. the jeep rides amazing on the road. I couldnt be happier with its on road performance. it is not even too tippy with both swaybars out either. I can wait to test it offroad. all that is left to do is put in the LCA's which i think im doing wednesday and flush the radiator  K bye watching top gear |

im not sure how high i am but i definitely got more than 3 inches. like an asshat i didnt measure before i lifted it but the rear bumper was sitting only an inch and a half or so lower on stock tires than alex's was on his 33's. so my guess is about 4" in the front and 4.5" in the rear? its abou a 1/2" shorter in the front also, got the LCA's in today oh and the tires are being put on thursday |
