Times getting close to planning a work party....https://posse4x4.org/wp-content/sp-resources/forum-smileys/icon_weld.gif

I'd like to have the honor of working on a jeep and get to see what "real" 4 wheel parts look like........ https://posse4x4.org/wp-content/sp-resources/forum-smileys/icon_razz.gif

Sammy parts are "real" 4 wheel parts, just "real" small parts...

Um...what?

Gil When's the build party ?

If I can't build it, then it's something that should be bought.

Ok guys here are the pictures, a couple of things I noticed curie didn't include longer breake lines. Maybe because it's a short arm kit. Also they don't use cambolts or a drop pitman arm what are your thoughts

Nice!!

Cambolts shouldn't be needed with adjustable control arms. What height is the lift? A drop pitman arm my not be needed. No brake lines? That seems odd, but again if the lift height isn't huge then brake lines my not be needed but I would want brake lines.

What does everyone else think?

Um...what?

Extended front brake lines - yes
Cam bolts - better without them since you've got adjustable arms
Drop pitman arm - not needed

Thanks Greg its a 4" lift. Currie says 35s should be no trouble with a 1" body lift.

I'm not Greg, but. . .
Curries 4" lift is probably very similar to the RE 3.5" lift.
With a 1" body lift, you should have plenty of room for 35s.
Don't forget the Motor Mount lift to keep driveline vibrations to a minimum.
