Cut, welded, grinded and painted my full width Rugged Ridge XHD rear into a baddass stubby. Looks much better especially with my flat fenders.

Looks great! I have the same bumper and wish they offered a stubby like that. Looks sick

Interesting I went with the JKS sector shaft brace & track bar, still have to fully test driver side "stuff" and see how things are clearing, no noises so far so I think I'm okay

Nah, ORW did the install, had to replace the pinion seal under warranty at the same time.

I talked to orw, they said they outsource their driveline services to other places. Like San Marcos sends rigs to vista driveline.

I didn't have the lift (3") for the JKS, but really happy with the way everything went together with the Synergy's.

Today, got the PRT 19-1751 Polyurethane grease for the Energy Control Arm/Rear Track Bar Bushing. Ran all over town for another grease gun and zerk fitting. I plan on tapping the center (halves bushings meet) of each oem control arms tomorrow.

This had to be done before, but have yet read/caught up to it yet anybody?
