Long story...but I've been Jeepless since July of 2012.

Other than the April first prank you did, I thought I've seen pictures of your sliver Jeep :thinking:

Yes, every single lift I have installed for 07's to 13 JKs have required removal of the lines from that hanger. I actually think the CO instructions say to do it if I remember correctly

I'll have to look over the last page again.

That's a friend's Jeep (the build thread is "The Building of Meanst"). I had his Jeep for a while because I installed the lift, bumpers, winch, lights, etc. for him. (But I did have a bright silver 2009 JKUR).

I'm not having a good day. It seems I can't get anything across today about what's best for the CO's or my ride height :naw:

Answers. Thank you Eddie and Thank you Drew from Off Road Evolution.

Your upper softer rate coil is what gets used for a majority of your driving. The lower heavier rate coils are there for bigger hits and you'll want to set them accordingly. If anything, you'll want them set closer to the coupler between the two coils.

What?? Unless you are restricting the travel of your shock, rotating the top collar will not stiffen the coil, it will increase the height of your Jeep just like a coil spacer would. Of course, there is a limit to this but so long as you are working within reason, nothing should be lost.

When up to Courtright lake last week. Saw the sign that said Dusy Trail this way!! :rock: I'm really looking forward to that hopefully this year, at the end of summer.

I had more pictures but I'm unsure I can post up company stuff. Well on a good note, I received some stuff the last few days. Have to post up some pics on that.

WOW... Called EVO MFG yesterday about the missing material and just received it right now :rock::rock::rock: Back on the high horse getting the swaybar on :rock::rock:

Thank you EVO.

Received the swaybar bracket and installed. Seems to me theirs a problem?? I had to place two washers on top of the black allen head screw. :thinking: And I'm noticing my swaybar is pushing to one side. Not sure if it's because the full weight isn't on the axle but it'd sharp bend on one side??

Had to have a nice drink before working on the Jeep.
