Just as an FYI, there's no duty on car parts when you bring them across, just HST, which northridge4x4.ca would also charge. It's slightly cheaper to buy from the US Northridge and bring it across yourself, especially since you're in Windsor, but the difference might not be worth your hassle, you'd have to decide.

Jeep looks nice!!! You failed to mention how many beers were consumed
for the various steps. Could also have something to do with the coil spacers thing. Nice job, it always means more when u do it yourself. I have had to put the stock tires back on mine.....waiting for the new jeep to come in, sucks big time.

Couple things, I read that an alignment is a must after a lift. Took it for a drive and sure feels like it needs one so I booked an appointment for Monday. Also that steering stabilizer needs to go, Bruce, a friend of mine suggested a dual as well. I think I might to that. Horrible wobble when turning and hitting a bump.
Camber was another thing mentioned when chatting with my neighbour. Should I be adjusting it? Not sure what that entails but if it needs it I should get it done.
Rides more stiff then stock, just breaking them in I guess. Really impressed.

Without adjustable control arms their is not much a shop can do but adjust your toe and centre your steering wheel. If you dont have an adjustable front trackbar you might want to consider that to centre up the front end. Adjusting the toe is really easy and you can do it yourself if your inclined. I've done it and its a cake walk. Here is the link.

Wanted to know something else, what about the speeed difference on the odometer with the new 35s and stock. Joanne took it for a spin with a gps and it showed 6-7 kms faster then the odometer. Is that about right?
