Default Angles after lift

After putting on the OME and 35's here are the angles that I have.....

Front Sway Bar 17 degrees

Rear Sway Bar 22.2 degrees

Rear Drive Shaft 15 degrees

Front Drive Shaft 6.8 degrees

Front Caster 5.7 degrees

On the front sway bar definitely getting new links. On the rear sway bar will extended links be needed?

Default Angles

Can you post all the before the lift angels so I can compare? I'm especially interested in the caster as 5.7 degrees seems a bit much after the lift unless it was changed. I have an idea for mine which has a 3.5 inch spacer in front and 2.5 in rear. It steers well enough but could be better with increased +caster. The lower arms measure 22.5 inches but should be 23.25 and rather than piecing them out I want to shorten the uppers by 1 inch. I will do that later this week and record everything with pics.
