get on 167 southbound. take the 410 highway exit just after Aurburn. follow 410 all the way through bonney lake and take a right on Mundy Loss Rd just before buckley at the stoplight. follow this road through the first stop sign and at the second stop sign the road Ts. take a left and follow this road through the town of Burnett, Wilkeson, and Carbonado. you will eventually hit a one lane bridge. after the bridge about a quarter of a mile the road will Y. take a right and follow that road all the way up until you see the sign for evans creek. the road is a gravel road.

i will be unloading my jeep right at the Y right after the one lane bridge.

Looking good there red, but yeah that rear axle definitely needs to move back some more. If your control arms are adjustable all you need to do is unbolt one end and unscrew it until it is the length you want.

Sounds easy but IS IT EASY?? Seems to me like the axle would shift out of place.....Wouldnt i also need to adjust the uppers ? cuz they adjustable.... I HATE NOT HAVING the proper equipment to work on it...

if they are the stock arms i dont think they are adjustable. if they are adjustable then yes you would need to more the uppers and lowers out the same amount to push it back and keep your pinion angle at ease
