Default 08 JK x Pro Comp Stage 1 4" lift kit question

I am installing the same lift right now and wanted to know if any could post specific pictures of this suspension? specifically parts that people may run into problems w: Sway bar connects, brake line drop brackets, rear track bar relocation?
Its nice to have a visual to make sure everything is done right

The brake line drop bracket is something I wondered about because it requires you to move bent metal lines

cheers

I installed this lift last year. My biggest advise is to NOT install the cam bolts on the LCA mount brackets. That's the part of the instructions that tell you to cut the bracket bolt hole tabs out - don't do it! Get a set of adjustable LCA's and adjustable front track bar instead to adjust castor and center your axle. Also go with a longer brake lines and get as much slack on your ABS line by removing the retaining clips and then zip tie them to the brake line. One last thing, make sure to torque down your CA's when your vehicle is on the ground to prevent binding. And make sure to follow all torque settings and then re-torque after 50 + miles.

Good luck!
