what time are you starting? Skills center doesn't open until 1 on Fri. If I am free, which I should be, I'm there!

I have always hated shackle angles post lift.

I also don't like the IDEA of relocation brackets....I had them on my last rig....but every time you change a stock location...you effect other things in the suspension geometry. They do their job though.

This is a fun idea I had not heard before, and makes good sense.

Good luck on with the house, there's a lot more satisfaction in owning a house than an XJ. X2 on bull****ting sellers, especially when their POS XJ needs to be coincidentally sold around tax time.

Honestly, I'm not worried about my bumper. I think I'm gonna spray mine black so it won't look quite so bad, but I don't wanna waste money making it pretty since I'm gonna have a real one made.

I'll be there to help you out on Friday from 4-8pm and Saturday from 9am to 4pm as long as you buy me a coke, a slice of pizza and help me with my alignment (again).

What all is getting done? Front and rear springs, front and rear shocks, and a track bar? Are you doing front control arms too?
