Awesome. I'm going with 35's eventually. Probably 3.56's since the small pinion for the dana turdy scares me a bit.

I plastidipped my wheels and found out that that stuff takes forever to dry when it's cold out. I need more coats. blah

Gonna be a good build, the LCOG is the way to go if you do it correctly.

Shure enough I get 20 minutes into lifting the front and this happens

I need a new sway bar connecter thing and rubber bushings, but I think I'll just keep lifting it until something else breaks. Come to think of it, that's prolly the source of my death wobble.

That won't cause dw. And sway bars aren't totally necessary. I've not had a sway bar on my last 3 daily driven xjs

Sway bars? Who needs sway bars with 3" and 35's?

I'm on 4.5" and 32's and have no problems on the road with no sway bars, and i DD this thing. Just disconnect the sway bars and try driving it without them.

Same thing happened to me during my lift. No biggie. Sway bar links are cheap. I personally took the whole sway bar out and set it aside. All the bushings were beat in mine so it was making all kinds of noise anyways.

I plan on getting quick disconnects but for now having no front sway bar at all isn't bothering me.

Did you get the full packs or aal?
