I should have built it a little stronger I think and use somthing a little diffrent for the pivoting of it. I used big tractor himes joints.

I have had a couple PMs asking for more photos. I have taken a couple more and found several problems over the weekend. Its always somthing I have about 1000 miles or less on it and my upper track bar bushing went bad. I got another one and now my lower one is bad. So now I have to order anotherone for it. I asked BDS on the phone if this is a comman problem and if I am going to need to buy a different trac bar setup. They told me that I have the best setup they sell and never have problems like this.

Here is a picture of the rock lights and location:


I was hearing a thumping noise on the passanger side and found that the grease zurt was hitting the floor boards:
I don't know how to fix his other than take it apart and tap the floor up a little.

While I was under the jeep looking I found 2 bolts that fell out. Everything was locktighted, the treads look to be stripped and I don't know how because it was installed by hand:


I was also told that with 8.5"s of lift that 33" tires would NEVER rub. My tires rub all the time, hell I have even riped off a fender flair already and had to fix that. Everything is adjustable so could I push the front axle forward a 1/2-3/4s of an inch so it doesn't mess up my fenders or flairs anymore?
