Damn haha Least you caught it before that I had to re-gear the stock ones were rounded out to crap. I'd like new axles haha not until this one becomes a non DD. Poor jeep stuck in 2wd

I hope this shows some of the flex I got with lil short arms... I wasn't able to max it out couldnt get the passenger tire burried into the wheel well, just used jacks. Soon hopefully I'll get offroad full flex.

The inside of the flare is at 57" high. or 4.75 from the ground. Just a DD

Hence why I have limiting straps on it just in case as well as to not lose the coil. (Took them off for that pic) Though the tire didn't extend past the back of the flare so shouldn't really be a concern especially with the arc of the control arm... for short arms not bad considering the other tire isn't even buried in the wheel well.

I've got the brackets also but my lowers are longer than the stock ones so when im at full droop the axle is centered in the wheel well pretty nice and when stuffed its the same way.

My lowers are longer as well but they aren't straight they extend down and then go straight into the mount, most likely the reason it pulls back a little but it didn't pull it back far, and with the arc in the arm I doubt I could roll that tire under the drive door unless I managed to do something really stupid you know how skinny pedal can make metal do weird things. LMAO

When stuffed they are centered in the wheelwell too. I would like long arms, but that's to come later. I like the jeep in your avatar! anyway you build it I just like jeeps.

Those straps won't help the angle of the shortarms man, I'm not bashing ya, but it will fold like a book straps or not
