there is a member here who works for RC...offers 10% off. iirrc

 

with your bastard pack you are going to need new u-bolts and a center pin for each side. I got mine for $30.

consider a set of 3" coils, rustys sells them for 100 for the pair, maybe less on craigslist. it will make the ride much better.

you might also need a t-case drop. depnding in the jeep

 

just wondering but how does the one add a leaf give you 3 inches in the back and what about control arms and sway bar links?

 

That is what lift I have and I love it. I got 31x10.50 maxxis buckshot tires, I love the look of it! Easy install too if you got the right tools.

 

does it ride good? did u need anything else ? give me details plz im very intersted.

 

You shouldnt need control arms for a 3" lift

 

what about break lines steering lines sway bar links and drive shafts

 

Well I needed extended sway bar links and a t-case drop but every Jeep is different. But that is all..and yes it rides great compared to before.

 

could i get away without the t case drop for now and on the sway bar links just get some 3 inches longer seeing as im going 3 in lift

 

Yeah I have yet to do my t-case drop. The vibes are really not that bad. But like I said, it's different for every jeep I imagine. And I ordered these http://www.discountjeepparts.com/pro...ducts_id/23313

 

alright. thank you very much i have all this saved now to just deal with the wife looks like i better bring home roses tomorrow.

 

T-case drop kit is $20 on rustys. they charge way to much for shipping though.
