THanks! and it is better than stock.

you figure now there is more suspension travel to soak everything up better. so.... its better than stock I would say it just floats

Well my jeep was having starter issues. it sounded like it was binding.... UH! and it would not start at the worst times then it would just click.... so today I solved that....


btw it always gets enough power everything from the alt, battery, power block, starter and grounds are all 2/0 battery cable.

I just tore apart the starter (btw it is rated to 1200 amps.... its a beefy starter) and just cleaned the crap out of it! put it back and it starts like magic lol .
