Frame mounting bolt needs to be offset 1/2" in order to clear existing sheetmetal on ZJ's

hmm that's strange...you sure your swaybar bushings just aren't shot? Other manufacturers make them the same for XJ/ZJ

Replaced sway bar bushings when I got it....I used stock brackets when I put lift on and the bolthead literally gouged the track bar bracket

Next time your out this way, LMK...You can see how tight they have everything on my ZJ...it's like a no room for error type of deal. Everything has to be pretty much dead center front and rear or you get some metal on metal action going

Pudgy or dukie (or anyone), when I start my rig it takes a while for it to turn over (unless I had just recently driven it a half hour before). Is that possibly my starter or something else? Or is it just a jeep thing..
