Yeah, I still have stock wheels. With bs of 5.00 your wheels will be 3.75 so yours will not rub lcas like mine did, but it will hit the fenders when flexing

im gonna trim the fenders so that should help a bit, plus the bumpstops, should be in good shape. Did you cut and fold or did you put a rubber trim on after you trimmed yours?

Trimmed the front, and cut and fold the rear. You have to cut and fold the rear or you'll cut off the spot welds and expose the interior. Up front I havent done any trim but I plan to bed line the wheel wells and the bottom part

Found this guy that builds custom Jeep DS. He has a good reputation and they are stronger and also cheaper than rebuilding the stock shaft. $260.00 shipped.
