12. Test fit the wheel make sure you do not turn the clock spring at all when the wheel is off that can be a 400 dollar mistake.

Default Uhh...

If you've got a black card to throw at this build why the hell would you not go with Rigid or a comparable company? I can find you a hand full of "db-link"s bars on eBay or Ali express for under 300 bucks. I hate to say it but from the shocks being mounted wrong to running 40s on a stock rear and a pueny 44 from g2 to everything else. I could think of so many better products to spend thousands of dollars on and come up with the exact same physical aspect, but can actually be used. And last time I checked a ProComp steering stabilizer is not exactly hydro...I may not be running 40s or have the cash to build it exactly how I wanted it, but everything done on this jeep is a huge swing and a giant miss. Even the ring terminals are the $4 packs from RadioShack that provide absolutely no moisture protection and don't crimp worth shit. Sorry man, should've posted this build up where people are clueless on the engineering and quality side of products and want a big wrangler that can't make it over speed bumps without the axles bending and breaking at the welds.

Ugh we're back to the bashing? Regardless of the work and parts selection these guys handled most of this really well. I defended them in the beginning, then bashed a bit, but all in all I am impressed with how they handled the PR side of things. That being said, I think everyone knows this would go over better on Luxury4Play and wish this wS on there so we could compare the threads hahah

The bashing is what kept this thread alive so long. Lol. You could just substitute a "TTT", but what fun would that be? Lol. I hate to see this thread fade into obscurity also, but, It is what it is.

Just back from my test drive and it works perfectly. It looks and feels totally OEM and as it mimics the stick movement up and down it works exactly as standard. Very impressed.
