4" Lift
#101
I was never targeting a price and the only reason I had to add adjustable upper control arms was because I changed the rear driveshaft which I didn't have to do. The stock driveshaft was in it for a couple days with no vibration at all but the Adam's rear drive shaft has a different angle because of the double cardan. Took it for an alignment after the lift and it was perfect. They didn't make any adjustments.

You could have gotten a MC kit which included the better performance series fox shocks instead of those adventure series. Gotten brake line replacements, instead of brake line extension brackets, and would have come with front and rear track bars and a complete set of replacement control arms. You would have even gotten front AND rear sway bar links.

If anyone wants to focus on a particular lift kit and knit pick "missing" items that could improve upon that kit, it's an easy game to play. There's not many kits out there that can't be improved upon with their provided contents. For some reason, the other guy likes to focus on the Mopar lift and act like it's some catastrophic purchase if additional component improvements can be made while ignoring any glaring improvements that can be made on the kit he suggests.
So what did you end up doing for rear sway bar links?
They seem to be missing when I look at the JKS kit contents.

To my #1 fan....
Why spend extra $$ on a POS $2600 Mopar kit where you have to add $700-$800 in add-ons just so it can drive as well as an AEV ($1799 or $2250 for reservoirs) and even a JKS ($1975 or add $500 if you want Fox reservoirs) ????? You wanna throw in a $450 Adams DS? No problem, it still comes out cheaper and that's not even adding a forum discount.
HO-LEE-SHEEEET. We get it man. You have a love sensation for POS dealer-installed wallet-raping suspensions. No problem LOL.
I still love you man. Whitney still loves you. KC still loves you. Hell, even Bobby Brown still loves you...

....and for the pièce de résistance, I do find it amusing that Motor Trend / Dirt Every Day chose a bolt-on JKS suspension over a Mopar suspension to mate with their UD60's and Adams driveshafts.
Will somebody please tell Fred Williams to stop "steering" people and his 380k+ viewers wrong!?! This is a disgrace!
