I shoulda cut mine off with an angle grinder before I put my LA on. I just heated the old mounts up and hammered them out of the way for now.

Little bit of flexin. Shocks measured 26". Ain't flexed em all the way out yet but they ride great offroad, whole lot smoother.

I'm sold on this kit. should be ordering mine within the month. I wont have the cash to do a steering upgrade... but those are the brakes I guess. It should be fine for a while right? I won't be wheeling it hard till I get better steering. Think I'll run 32's.. I don't want to trim my pretty arches or fenders.

Edit: I just reread what you said. You having the 6.5" lift is probly why its longer. I need to stop reading pages on the forum for the night.
