You can buy a clicking ring for the same price and you font have to drill anything. And they come with all the hardware too. Just my opinion that that would be easier.


Also without some floorboard work you are only going to get about another 5* of up. A tjt case is clocked differently and with stock member it touches the floorboard. These are things I found out while building my xj.

Was looking at a jeep build and thinking this would be a mod I would like to do ,I think some judicious hammering of the drivers side under seat area it would be a go.
