New lift. Easily gonna clear 37's. Drives and rides great. Need to recenter my steering wheel so ESP/bas lights go away. I will be adding front lower control arms in the near future. It is not an emergency part addition, it's just a little twitchy. I'll be adding both upper and lower rear arms to move the axle back about an inch as well.

I would highly recommend this setup. Fantastic riding kit. I also left 1 inch spacers on top of all my coils. I didn't mean to but my mechanic has it all buttoned up before I found out. Oh well bigger lift sounds good to me.

Today I tested the storage capacity - 42" plasma fits in the back of a 2DR if you sit on the steering wheel!

LOL...

Changed the oil in the JK and the Cobalt and if Elaine's car was home would have been the civic too.... I gotta change the service cycles lol.

Got a little rattle happening between 2 and 3 thousand rpm..... clutch in/clutch out doesn't matter..... sounds like a heat shield but I crawled all over it and can't find it? Anyone interested in getting strapped to the underside of the Jeep and going for a spin

I've got a rattle there too steve but mine is when I put the tranny under load. 7000 km on a new crate tranny and it's making noise.

You too hunh.... I guess it's more pronounced under load but when rolling I can get it to do it with the clutch in and reving the engine too.... not as bad but enough to hear a faint quick rattle.... definitely more pronounced under load though.

Hope it's nothing... you have a new tranny in yours already!!!?

Tonight/tomorrow I am considering pulling off the bug deflector and shopping for offroad lights on the windshield...

putting me with vehicle electrical could be dangerous, though.
