and im about to buy the shackle relocation kit from rc anyone on here use it and like it or what other options i got?? with my horible shackle angle??

 

Diggin the blue paint!

 

well its been a while since i posted on here. Since my last post i have installed detours pillar light brackets, and installed a rough country shackle relocation kit which i got about 2.5 more inches in the back and it maxed out my rear shocks so i measured for new shocks and got rancho 5000s 34 inches fully extended. it rides so much better will have pics later. also finally decided to pull the trigger on regearing and locking the rear of the jeep gonna go with the combo package from rough country i cant find any better deals 470 with 10% off for 4.56 and gonna order the powertrax no slip from rocky road outfitters for 410.00 which i think is a very good deal

 

before the new shocks and shackle relocation



need to trim the bumper a little rubbed the tire



fully flexxed bent my fendor



wasnt wide enough to get up this



no dammage because of the wide tires



had a buddy in his xj pull me out without tipping



this was a fun trip at a spot we call lomida in folsom ca

 

then we decieded to get the shackle relocation kit and quick disconnects from rough country



here it is installed gave me almost 3 inches in the back



quick discos



Then called Detours and order the light pillar brackets



Then with the shackle kit it completly maxed out my rear shocks so i had to measure for new ones at our local walmart

 

So gonna go test out the new praire city tomorrow

 

diggin the jeep looks like alot of fun,

 

Are 4.88 gears to high for 33s?? i am gonna want 35s when these tires wear down which wont be for a while?

 

They might be a little high but it shouldn't be a huge deal with the 4-speed.

 

so i just added everything up for the regear

8.25 with 29 spline no shaft 100

29 spline shafts yukon 120 each 240

SYE rugged ridge 160

4.88 dana 30 8.25 combo with
install kit 460

dana 30 carrier 60

powertrax no slip for 8.25 29 410
