I thought about it but I have never had a problem with Bar Pins. I dont get any of the clunk and my bolts once I broke the torque with a ratchet I took them out with my fingers.

Gotta love this whole No rust thing.

Well I did a quick test on the way home.

No worries about the rear brake line from now on. and the shocks seem to work well in the rear. I measured just right! hahaha.

Front lines need to come in.....

Picked up 2 Grand Cherokee Upper Control Arm Bushings because mine disappeared... I have about 10% of the bushing left so the bar is smacking around in the mounts... How I dont have death wobble I dont know....

Grand cherokee bushings have the solid bolt sleeve where the regular cherokees have a big bolt sleeve that has little bumps in it to center the bolt.

So I took the new ones and drilled them out to 1/2" hardware because of these....



only 1 hour to instal one side..... I will go in the morning to instal the other side....

These things are the biggest pain in the *** to change....
