The sway bar should also be at a 15 degree upward angle. The links need to be longer and the top mounting point should be below the sway bar. Not on top like you have it.

i just wanted to hear from you guys i am ready to lift my jeep and i want to put it on a 4.5'' lift. i know eventually you will get drive line vibration and speed wables without getting a sye, extended drive shaft, and a long arm kit, but i wanted to know if i could do a 4.5'' lift kit without a sye or long arm kit. i know on the rough country web site they show recommended parts for certain lifts and on there 4.5'' kit it dose not show a long arm kit or sye is recommended. i eventually plan on putting these in but i want to know if i can temporarily get away with this. thanks

It depends... You really need an SYE. Lift it without it. Check and see how much spline engagement you have. If it vibes or the shaft is close to falling out then you need an SYE.
You can go without long arms on 4.5 inch lift. It's going to ride like crap tho.

After my lift when i hit the brakes pretty hard slowing down around 45 mph i get a bad steering wheel wobble where it just shakes back and forth... Only when stopping though not acceleration... what would be a likely culprit?
