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

I'll trim the flares for now and change them when the budget allows.

I think I read that they intentionally make the rear springs slightly taller in anticipation of a heavier rear bumper, larger spare tire, gear, etc., which will settle it down. None of which I have yet.

Need to adjust rear upper CAs, install rear track bar bracket, adjust parking brake, wire up lockers, trim flares and seams.
The track bar bracket on the new axle is higher but not high enough.
VKS Fab rock sliders are on order!

Offline Adjusted rear CAs this weekend. It drove great before and now it's driving even better!
Up next, rear track bar bracket. Currently, the rear track bar is close to hitting the diff cover on big bumps. Need to figure out how to get the bracket to fit the new axle to get it up and out of the way.

Offline After a few slow weeks on Craigslist ended up selling ALL of my old stuff this past weekend! Axles, suspension, driveshafts, bumpers, tires/wheels gone! Didn't get a huge amount but better than nothing which is what I thought I'd get for most of it. And it cleans up my side yard! Still need to cut up the crates.

They're not in good condition. Just in large pieces. And I still need to cut out the logos.

Ok. No worries. Yes, you paid for those logos so be sure to get them!

They're working good. I would still like to do one more brake bleed to see if it will get rid of the little bit of spongy feel left. I'd also still like to adjust the parking break, trim the flares, paint the wheel wells and rock sliders, install the rock sliders, wire up the lockers, and get the rear trackbar bracket fabbed.
I'm going to stop by the shop Justin went to this weekend and see what they can do for the trackbar bracket.
