Mozee helped.

I did use the drop brackets and the stock lower control arms, the lift kit is the new 2 1/2 inch. I also changed out all of the control arm bolts to the correct size grade 8 units, what a pain to do. Getting everything to line up was a chore and then some. I have a set of front adjustable lowers but would rather not use them if the stock arms give me an appropriate caster angle. The stock bushings tend to outlast nearly anything aftermarket. I'm also hoping to keep the stock driveshafts as long as I can, the aftermarket options again have more maintenance. I have a new AFE crossover pipe but AEV says I don't need it with this lift. I hope to have it drivable by Sunday and test the clearance.

Im anxious to see how your JKUR turned out, no piking at the last minute!!!!

Here is what goes through my head each day:

How close will Moab be, How close will Moab be, How close will Moab be, How close will Moab be, How close will Moab be, How close will Moab be, How close will Moab be, How close will Moab be, Why isn't it here yet, Why isn't it here yet, Why isn't it here yet, Why isn't it here yet, Why isn't it here yet.

Picked up some supplies for a jambalaya night - won't match Bebe's Angry Beans but should be good for a group dinner at the Outpost one night. Also got some Glenlivet just so I can watch LagunaH1 drool and beg (makes you wonder where Daisy learned it from) :). We're loaded up for plates and utensils.

Just got back from weighing the truck. 8700 pounds with an almost empty main tank and a 2/3rd full auxiliary tank.
