Can't you just disconnect the sway bar and the CA's? that should let you drop it without having to compress the springs.

yes but i struggle getting the jeep far enough to let axle droop. im in my garage with just a jack so it can only go about 2.5 ft high. i will try that though. i only have lca's on right now so that would be easy.

btw i havent ran sway bar front or rear for a while. prefer it this way

[QUOTE=Gatchmo5710;567611]Here it is all done now, except for shackles.
Sweet winch! I like how you just put it on the stock bumper. Pretty cool. Im also a sucker for the country edition. I had your color scheme in a 2 door with a 3.5 rough country and i miss it.

Oh my. Is that your girlfriend in the passenger seat hanging her head in shame?

Honestly bro, I love the battle wounds and it doesn't seem to have slowed you down much...just went bigger. I like it.
