Very easy install and it won't affect your esp. Just don't overextend your brake lines when you jack it up and lower the axles. Unscrew the rear bracket securing the brake lines to the underside of the tub (like the directions state) before you lower the axles.

Good luck! You should be fine. I've been working all day on putting my 3" teraflex with full flex arms and adjustable front and rear trackbars on. I'm just about done with the back and everything is going suprisingly smoothly.

Yep. Gotta give those zirks a squirt.
One hiccup I had on my install was over tightening the zirks on the sway bar link. They have to be slightly loose to accept grease. I tightened them, then alternated between loosening a turn and trying the grease gun. A little trial and error, but I got em greased eventually.

Remember to take your tranny skid and crossmember off to allow the frt to droop far enough so your drive shaft don't hit it, uh don't ask me how I know that Gotta friend coming over to help with BB on a 06 rubicon tomorrow. Must be a BB&B weekend( budget boost & beer)
