Installing a 3" lift, help me do it right

Also is this the upgrade to replace it? This appears to be a stock replacement? No more torx BS?

Good call on the reciprocating saw, it made quick work of that bolt while minimizing the risk of death which is a plus.

That is indeed a high quality replacement for the stock bolt.

Is the torque spec still 55 ft lbs?

Good call, I need to check both of those areas after the body lift drop. The fan shroud needs adjustment, it's now very close at the top to the fan.

For the fill hose, am I just looking for kinks?

Loosen all the clamps and have everything at the most relaxed neutral state you can before retightening. Don't want to break your plastic filler thing,etc

Another question, as I was drooping the front axle it was clear my brake lines are too short. Are the YJ brake lines still considered a good upgrade for longer lines?

I bought longer brake lines from I think AutoZone. Said they were for a TJ although I'm pretty sure they're just YJ lines. They've worked well enough for me so far.
