Installed my lift a few months ago, was under the truck and noticed the rear springs look like they are bent almost like a mild S. The lower arms are stock length and i adjusted the uppers so the rear was pointed at the tcase (forgive my non-technical terms). Should I shorten the upper arms to get the springs straight? It seems like that would drop the front of the axel down which looks like it would straighten out the springs. Just not sure if that would put too much strain on the lower joint. In searches I found that 19.5" was a good starting place?


Stock Drive shafts, and I have a 4door with 33's.

should have thought of lets see if this works that.

if you set your pinion so that its inline with your driveshaft, springs bowing is totally normal.

you need JKS rear perches or Rock Krawler wedges. the jks perches allow more adjustability.

Yup, like WOL said that looks normal if you adjusted your pinion angle. If it hits your track bar or if it bothers you the wedges should work great with your 3" lift. I used the wedges with my 3" lift. When I latter installed 4" springs and pushed the axle back I used the JKS perches to get the bow out.

This is normal? I just purchased the same kit. I don't want my springs to look like that.
