[QUOTE="Stubicon;4090639"] I've got the same setup and it's great. Just needs a bigger tire.
It's nice that you can run stock tires without it looking weird but after I graduate collage in a year I will definitely be looking for bigger tires. Maybe 295/70r17

It's not really a big deal running the stock rear DS on a 4 door. -2° to -3° is what most shoot for.
The uppers can be easily tightened on the jeep. Hold pinion where desired and adjust uppers out to fit the mounts. Recheck pinion without Jack. When happy, center joints and use something like this to wedge inbetween joint and mount to hold orientation. Make sure the bend is inward also.

Haha I just did This today. I moved it so the new front bolt is inbetween the 2 original bolts. I'd say .5-.75 back. The x-factor kit includes 4 self threading bolts and says to move it back 1". Drill a 5/16 hole and run the bolts through. I actually used a tap. I also used a nut on the front bolt for insurance.
