Hey everyone! I just bought a 3.5” MC game changer lift and I was wondering if anyone running this set up has any advice for a DIY install. Did anyone run in to any issues I should be aware of ahead of time?

 

You're going to be very happy with that lift. Not much to say besides follow their instructions which are very thorough. Might take more time than you expect, so plan to install when you have plenty of time.....ie, don't start Saturday morning and have plans to do something Saturday night! It's nice to have an extra person when installing the rear upper arms. You have to hold the little flange that has the nut on it (which isn't flat/straight) up in the frame rail at the same time you have to hold the control arm and try to get the bolt through the frame and to the nut. Also when trying to line up the holes for the lower control arms on the axle side, jacking under the diff will push the axle brackets further away while jacking under the pinion will pull the axle brackets closer.

 

I'm also running that lift and love it. Had it on my 2012 Rubicon as well. Install isn't hard, but does take some time. Having a buddy with a lift and a couple of friends to help out makes it go quicker
