Would the spring correction wedges do anything for me? Should i consider a spacer in the rear?
thanks for the reply!

Ok RK, I don't have one of you complete lift kits so don't get mad at me but I'm slowly coming over to your dark side. Sorry for the bad night shots, I took these at 4am while at work but his setup I have right now is originally a 2.5" tf kit but I ditched the front coils for the 2.5 rk coils and recommended bilsteins.
What's the length of the rk sway bar links recommended for the 2.5", mine are 11" tf rear links in the front and 9" factory ford f 150 links in the rear. My e disco and links don't look like they will "flip" cuz they are not aligned in the full flex nite shot.
And also how much more "flex" will I get when I purchase the rk lca's cuz I think it flexes pretty Damn good with all the stock lca's but I love the high clearance rk arms and soon will get some
Oh by the way, the jeep flexes so much that it keeps pulling the rubber boots off the shock bodies lol, you can see it on the pic of the right side of my jeep on the fork lift
Thank you

I have a 2.5x-factor on my '12 2dr rubi. Stock rear bumper and spare. There is only about 1" clearance between trac bar and exhaust pipe and everytime I hit any kind of bump, dip, pothole etc. they bang together. The coating is almost gone off the trac bar. Needless to say its annoying having to slow down for every little thing. Any suggestions? What options do I have? Thanks in advance!

Here is a picture. To me it looks like it sits higher in the front. Could be my eyes playing tricks on me.

Another member on here has his RK drag link hitting the track bar bolt on your drag link flip kits track bar bolt. I had the same , but I added washers to the steering stops to prevent it. My RK lower control arms are at their shortest length at a 4.5 inch lift and my upper RK's are dialed in for a perfect pinion angle for my DC driveshaft. Is there anything else we can do to prevent the contact?
