That was one of the threads I used when doing my lift.

I also got new bump stops, u bolts, and sway bar link bushings.

Now I am going to adjust caster with shims, way cheaper then new lower control arms.

What year is your choice?

Looks like you just did all the things I'm looking at doing to mine
I need to do my sway bar and link bushings also
and the steering stabilizer and shocks and < sigh >
how do you like the shocks? I am leaning toward the monroe magnums instead - a little less $$

I did a Rubicon express steering stabilizer.

Edit: I should say, I got best pricing from 4wd.com but their customer service is horrific. If you have a problem with your order and have a question about it you will be screwed.

Rides great. I got most of my parts from 4wd.com great prices on everything, plus found a 10% off coupon, plus free shipping, and no taxes. Bilstein ended up on the $70's. I decided it was worth it.

Default Good day


​​​​​Fun day. Tires look awesome. After tires and alignment more 55mph wobble! Life is good.

Rear is definitely a bit higher then front.
