#&$^@! Banjo Bolt
Installed my OME longtravel kit this weekend. All went well except for the 2 hour detour to 6 different part stores (including a dealer), all of them were out of the banjo bolt that I broke off. Finally found one that I made work (thanks Dremel), but I'll still order one made for the Jeep.
I had my torque wrench on 200 inch pounds, and one still sheared off. Just an FYI, if you put on new brake lines, get a few of these just in case. $3 part derailed most of my day.

I hear ya, i attempted to do my lift on my old Ram. IT was to complicated and i got to the point of disconnecting my brake lines. I went to tighten it back down and barely put any pressure on it and it snaped on me. Those things are pretty weak.
