I ended up ordering the parts from JCR to switch it to an UTK. Didn't necessarily need the OTK kit so it really isn't worth all of the hassle. Should be here next week.

Again, thanks for the info guys.

So to run this set up all I have to do is cut off the sway bar mounts?

Will the trac bar mount be fine where its at or is it a must to move it?

Hassle? Lol, I just wrapped up the install this past weekend. There isn't that much hassle.

Couple minutes with an angle grinder and the sway bar mounts are gone.

The geometry isn't too far off on mine, so bump steer won't be terrible.

I really should relocate the axle side trac bar mount above the axle, but I dropped the body side trac bar mount a bit already, so that should help.

I need an offset TRE for my driver's side, tho. Under compression the lowered body side trac bar mount is causing clearance issues.
