Try turning the coil spring to see of that's causing your sway bar to rub, I had that problem when I installed my lift. I just unbolted the sway bar and flexed out on a hill, turned the coil the right way and bam! It set right in like it's supposed to, no more sway bar against coil spring.

Nice build by the way! Love the name, one of my favorite songs

I may try that but it's seems like every time it compressed/depressed (the coil) that it would just hit the end of the sway bar... And thanks man, one of mine too!

Nice build! I like those wheels, I might have to look for some for my jeep! Check out my build. My name is ryan and I'm only 15 years old and a freshman in high school. My jeep is my favorite thing ever! Check out my build thread!
