Well as said before I snapped some pics this evening of the Jeep with its new suspension. Tried to get a little artistic so hope ya don't mind.
And just a fun one with the wheat field out by the house.
Thanks a ton for the great suspension RockKrawler, it rides and handles great. I can't wait to finish the brake lines and go test the flex soon.

Guys
When it comes to the Jam Nuts and Joints in our systems, do not be afraid to crank on them and use red loctite. If you strip a joint our jam nut, not only will we replace the part for free, you will be our hero! For real!
The 7/8 Jam Nuts require 124 to 140 ft-lbs of torque.
The 1" Jam Nuts require 200 to 225 ft-lbs of torque.
The orientation of the joints is important as well for proper off-road operation and performance! So when you are tightening down the jam nuts, make sure the joints are oriented properly!
Hope that helps.
