I know its your rig, but i like the second way you have the xmember pass link mounted better. Separation will def be better that way. The pic you posted from the front looking back toward the upper pass link, is that full bump?

No, that's about ride height. So the upper arm will still need a small bend

Took the jeep for some light sand dunes wheeling with a couple 50mph sprints across rough terrain, jeep handled it nicely and made the 3 hour round trip drive without a hiccup.

I do need to relocate the axle shock mounts though, as they hit the calipers while turning sharply
