Default need answers tonight.

so i ended up trying to install a teraflex 3" lift today and now i have a few questions.....

1- should i have put washers on the rear sway bar extensions? for some reason i was thinking i should because the new bolts for the top of the extension...or actually

2 ....was i even supposed to use new bolts for the top of the rear sway bar extensions

3 - can i install the rear upper flex arm without needing to get a new driveline? if so ...whats the best way to get the rear to line up since they are longer that originals?

4 - can i install front upper and lower flex arms? the directions are so vague and make it seem like i am supposed to use factory arms front upper (or is that just mean to set for factory lenght?

5 - i installed rear lower flex arm but set it at factory length? does the zirc go up or down? in the write up it looks to be pointing up so that's what i did. just seems like a bad spot. http://project-jk.com/wpg2?g2_itemId=105707

thats all i can think of for now. thanks in advance if anyone can help.

1&2. I left my old bolts on...

3. Iam still running stock drivelines on a 4" LA

4. Yes you can run both just set to factory length.

5. yes pointing up. That way you dont rip them off on the rocks.

Look at step 4 in the 'Setting your Caster' section of this write-up:

It is for the front, but I'd guess it will work on the rear axle also.

thanks for the help guys. hopefully i can finish it up today. and for the sway bar bolts...i was asking because i can't figure out how i would re-use the originals because they have a ball joint type thing on the one end.
