Didn’t even remove the wheels, I like it
Don't use spring compressors. Just let the axle go to full droop buy unbolting the steering, driveshaft, track bar, etc. It's much easier that way I've found.
I could get my last set of springs in and out without disconnecting anything - just jacking up one side would lower the opposite side enough. The problem is my stupid Rough Country LCA's with their ridiculously oversized bodies hit the back of the lower shock mount and once that happens, it's going NOWHERE.

I clearanced the mounts this summer when I got the 11" Rancho's, so they'll outdroop the shocks now but still not enough for the Currie springs. So you're onto something - but the thing I need to disconnect is the LCA's. Fortunately, those bushings are rubber so I've only slid the bolts in and haven't torqued them yet so it'll be easy. Not sure why I didn't think of it last night. Oh yeah I am. Because it was 11pm in a 40 degree garage and I was pissed at the disappointment of starting the night thinking I might have it driveable before going to bed.
Ahhh, Iv'e seen this happen before, yes.
I just know that I made the mistake of using spring compressors on my first TJ when installing a lift and recall what a nightmare they were. The second time around I dropped the axle and it was much easier.
40 degrees in the garage... you need a space heater
Answered, about 3/4".Specifically how much give do I count on for the poly? Do I set them just like the hard cups? Or do I count some of the poly as jounce bumper?
Ha, no kidding. I'm in Woodmoor east side of the golf course. If you tell me you're in my neighborhood that'll be something else, but even if you're not, welcome to the forum! I think @dogbreath650 is in Monument alsoo. Not sure what area but in a town this size it doesn't really matter, lol.I found them in stock at northridge4x4 in December. I also talked with rockjock4x4 in December and they said the tj/lj platform is their number 1 selling platform so they will continue to support it. If you call they can give you an update. I also only got stickers after purchasing from northridge. Im building an LJ and am in Monument as well!
Oh, nice. You ought to start a build thread and tell us what you've got going with your LJ!I'm west of downtown, but my inlaws are in your neck of the woods.
I think I was the recipient of all the savvy stickers 5 years ago I ordered the UA system and I think I ended up with 8 savvy stickers in the box.I don't know what I have to buy to get a sticker from them or Savvy but it seems like sub-$1k stuff just doesn't do it.

My wife had a hearty laugh a few weeks ago in the garage. She was watching me work on something and grabbed a slim cardboard envelope only to find my sticker stash. Been saving them for the day I get a tool box in the garage.
