Not triagulated just removed the pass side upper (still all factory mounts), Rock Krawler has been doing this for sometime with some of their kits so we just decided to test the idea on our JK. No issues thus far running 37's on the interstate at 80MPH! This set up has really impressed alot of people with the amount of flex!

You have no rear sway bar? I know when I go from my rear antirock to disconnecting it. Freeway driving feels pretty washy. Did you have to relocate your rear Trackbar bracket on your frame side to accommodate your rear axle being pushed back? I know it get pretty close to the rear diff cover especially if your running armored covers.
Did you have to extend your rear lower spring perches or cut and angle them as well?
How about extended driveshaft?

Yes, we removed rear sway bar completely, kept limiting the down travel! On highway we really havent noticed it that much (not something that I recommend but it has been done). Rear track bar is really close to rear pass. side spring, the bracket is still in the stock location, what we did was use the RC rear coil angle shims and the RC spring clamps and set the spring forward on the mount. The rear diff cover is close but no contact thus far.

Here is the specs:
2.5" Rough Country x-series kit that we have "tuned" for lack of a better term
moved rear axle back about 1"
pass. upper control arm removed
recently added Bilstein 5100s
Moved up rear shock mount about 1.5"
removed rear swaybar
3" front bumpstop
2" rear bumstop
spring clips/retainers front and rear
cut factory flares
cut down factory front bumper
rear EVO d-ring mounts
17" Pro-comp wheels
1.5" Spidertrax wheels spacers
still running D30 up front w/ stock 4.10 gear
we have our own sleeve, gusseted, and trussed D30 housing going in soon
*I'm sure I have missed something
We have been more than pleased at the way this setup rides and performs.
This set up will flex just as much, if not more than any kit on the market but using mostly RC products it doesn't cost and arm and leg.
Rough Country also provides a lifetime warranty on their products.
