Sounds good Chris, I'll post something up!

While we are on the subject of steering stabilizers, I did the ZJ conversion on my '05 LJ and noticed that now the Monroe SC2928 appears to be bottoming out at full right turn lock. the whole truck 'kneels' to the passenger side and down, and it seems to be because the stabilizer ran out of...

I'm thinking that the funky curvature of this aftermarket rear track bar is taking that into account, It is by no means a straight bar. I'll experiment with it and if I can't get it to play nicely I'll just get a currie bar

Pretty sure this is exactly what sent my rear axle into the fuel lines. In this thread, AndyG wrote the same, and now that I know I have one of those brackets, I can confirm with my two crushed fuel connectors...

Bear in mind I had a set of mystery previous owner procomp springs instead of stock ones. The rears were easier than the fronts to get out. Remove the shocks, sway bar endlinks, track bar and you'll get them out/in no problem with just a crowbar. Fronts were a bit harder. I removed the drive...

I did also notice that I have some sort of rear track bar relocator. It appears to be 4 inches or so above the factory mounting point. I seem to be in good standing so far for contact in droop, but still need to test where things go in full compression. More on that soon.

Thanks for the feedback - I think a UCF skid would work great for me here. I have the auto transmission in my LJ so I've read that the lopro mount is a no-go - so the extra clearance (NOT the Ultra clearance) is the right move for me. Sounds good. I'll save the Driveline for very last :)

So I've picked up some new bits to throw on the jeep as I hunt down a lift that plays nicer with these 35s. Currently my thoughts are: adjustable upper and lower front control arms to match the adjustable rears. 4" Currie springs 1.25" or 1" body lift spacers 1" Motor Mount lift take OUT the...

Looks like I'm gonna be returning this one, we'll see if a replacement rack has better clearance! I can't round out the bolt holes any more than they already are to adjust for a better tilt angle. I could find a section of round tube with the same OD as the ID of the crossbars but its gonna be...

so it turns out this rack doesn't clear the hard top at all - I dont have any body spacers on the truck and the middle two bars are contacting the hardtop's spines and it makes a LOT of noise driving around. Gonna see if I can fab some spacers blocks to fix it up, but wanted to post an FYI on it.

Far as I can tell its on correctly... The instructions dont show much in the way of useful photo angles, but perhaps the adjustable side is inverted? https://s3.amazonaws.com/roughcountry/install/92107500.pdf

this is the one! https://www.roughcountry.com/product/forged-adjustable-track-bar-1075

You are correct! I've been going through the suspension and replacing the procomp parts with upgraded adjustable components as I was sorting out some vibrations and getting my pinion set in the right places. The only thing from Procomp that remains at this point are the swaybar endlinks and...

While we are on the subject.... I'm reading that Currie springs (sold by rockjock) should be a good set to get things to where they need to be. I've already got the adjustable control arms for the rear and I've read that you can just get by with a tummy spacer (which I already have from the PO)...

well I'll be damned. Sounds like a set of true 4" springs (and potentially a SYE/DCDS) are on the horizon...
