but thanks for that info. it wont hurt anything the way it is now wil it?
id say the hardest part of the install was the bump stop extentions in the front. the instructions dont help you there, there was someone on here who used a block of wood to force them into position i copied that and it worked for me. i didnt even try to muscle them in.
here is the link to that - this helped me a lot, thanks je002

the back is relativley easy and fun but i wont lie the front is pretty much a royal PITA! when you get to the front put the passenger side spring in first. and defenetly dont attempt it yourself. oh and grease the swaybar links the directions conviently leave that tidbit out.
other then that have fun and you will be sore afterwards, i was.
if you have anymore quetions please ask i would love to help if i can.

Just curious... Why should you do the passenger side first?

Looks Great!!... I installed the same kit on my Bright Silver 07 Sahara. Drives great with the stocker 18's. The 17X9's and 33X11.5R17 BFG M/T KM2's go on Tuesday. I concur, the fronts were a PIA, used a long bolt and flat washers with the air ratchet to drive the bump stop extension in. The reason to do the passenger side first is because more things attach to the axle on that side and those things provide just enough interference when trying to get over the extended bump stops to make life really frustrating. Nothing like getting just to were you think it will go in and not being able to go that last 1/16". No ESP issues or rubbing issues except for my bruised arms from doing everything myself.

ALSO UPDATE UPDATE:
stupid me finally figured out the problem with the wishy washy feeling. my tires were inflated to 50 PSI
i lowered them to around 30 and now perfect. 
it says max 50 on my tires and apperently where i bought them used that as a guide to preasure. oh well at least i know it wasnt a improper lift install that was causing thay
