Hey guys,
Slowly progressing on my TJ. I just moved so things have been kinda crazy the last couple months and I haven't been able to do much with the Jeep.
I posted before and talked about my plans. Basically, without going into too much detail, I want to run a 4" short arm with a tummy tuck/SYE and selectable lockers front and rear.
I was going to try and do this all at once, but I think I've decided to do the lift first, and then worry about the axles/locker at a later time.
Here's what I currently have in my possession (keep in mind none of this is installed, it's all in my storage building):
4" Skyjacker springs
4 Skyjacker Hydro shocks (I know, not great, but will work for the short term)
Rough Country X-Flex adjustable control arms front and rear, lower AND upper.
Skyjacker dropped pitman arm, t-case drop, and associated bits/hardware that came with the Skyjacker lift.
I just ordered a Rough Country adjustable front track bar.
Also in the next few weeks I will be ordering JKS quicker sway bar disconnects. I also am going to grab a set of extended length brake lines (anybody have any recommendations?).
So the current questions are:
1) Any recommendations on the brake lines (manufacturer, etc?)
2) Should I bother with an adjustable track bar for the rear?
3) Other than the actual SYE kit/driveshaft and of course the bellypan (which will require a 1" body lift, I know this), are there any other parts I havent mentioned that I will need? In other words, am I missing anything?
4) Speaking of belly pans, anyone have experience with the ones from Skinny Pedal?? They look nice and the price is right, but haven't heard of them before.
Thanks in advance.
By the way, we didn't move very far from where we were, but I had no problems with my vehicles where we used to live. In the roughly 2 weeks we've lived here, I've already had my work van vandalized (they didn't steal anything, just damaged the outside of it). Fortunately they haven't touched the Jeep yet (or the wife's car), so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
