Knowledge check adn request for technical support
Picked her up today. All is well so far except it pulls to the left if the steering wheel is centered and the steering wheel wants to tilt to the right when I let go of it. Obviously the dealer has said they will get it fixed.
It is a bit squirrelly going down the highway but I gather I can fix that with long control arm relocation brackets or something like that.
It is, as I knew it would be, sluggish compaired to stock tire size. I am glad that I opted for the 3.7x gearing and may swap out the gears down the road.
I am so far pleased with it and wife is very happy. Only bad thing is her jeep is taller than my 4x4 Ram.... For now...

Don't rely on the dealership techs. Get the specifics on the lift and do some homework. The RC website has links to install docs, with pics, right from each lifts page.
Did it come with cam bolts to correct the caster? Are they adjusted correctly to add that caster? (you of course realize that they have to notch out the ca brackets to install those. So if they don't give enough caster and you add new lower control arms, you need to get those holes welded back up)
How about a drop pitman arm? Was the trackbar bracket installed also? You want the trackbar and drag link to be roughly parallel to each other, as well as having as little of an angle as you can manage. (relatively horizontal, as opposed to steep angles from the axle up to the frame).
