When you say the wheel moves around a lot are you saying it vibrates or it follows the road a lot. Did you get adjustable co trol arms or just fixed. Also we're they able to get the caster where it needs to be when they aligned it. As far as the rough ride you could try swapping the springs for some plush springs and change out your shocks. That may be a way to smooth out the ride some. Seems kinda odd that yours would be so rough when I'm like you I've heard a lot of good things as far as on road manners for that lift kit. I also drove one, it did have the 1" boost on it though but it rode a little rough for my comfort but not bad at all. Kinda rode like a truck with hd springs in it.

What wheel backspacing are they ? Do you rub the lower control arms at full turn ? Do you have wheel spacers ? I have the 37" 13.5 17" nitto's It does look badass. Hope you take it off road because they are one of the best off road tires.

I know you Pm'd me but your inbox is full so I couldn't respond but this is the setup I was referring to. This thread says you had 18s. Was it 18s that didn't rub or 20s. You can pm me back if you'd like.

The wheels were 18x10's with a 4.56 backspacing. The tires never rubbed once. No need for spacers or anything else. The wheels also tucked these wide meats in as much as possible so it was nice they werent sticking out a rediculous amount.

Funny you should say that. I was watching the History channel or Planet green and saw Inside Area 51 and Return to Area 51 (Originally aired in 1997 and 2003 again). I am going to take this bad boy out to the Las Vegas desert and check out some night flights at Groom Lake. I just ordered a Body Armor front bumper, 2 Rigid D2 LED's and 2 Lightforce 240's so I can see at night. Always wanted to check it out and now have the vehicle to do it!
I missed seeing it but she said it was 3 red lights in the shape of a triangle behind me in the sky. she freaked out and wanted to get the fuck outta there. we threw our crap in the jeep and headed back down the dark dirt rd towards little aleinn and 5 red lights appeared right in front of us the way we were heading in the distance. 5 bright red lights in a straight line. Then I got a little freaked out too. Everyone wants to see any alien till they actually do, then they wanna kill it.
we drove around 200 miles to some town north of there to stay the night. now when people talk about Area 51, I'm like "man fuck that place"
