Looks like a good build.

One word of warning. If you are ordereing RK parts/Lifts and they are shipping it from RK they take forever to even give it to UPS! 10 days and counting for some control arms they claim to have in stock!!

If 4Wheelparts has it in stock you are good to go...if they are "Drop Shipping" out of RK in New York...prepare for a wait.

I like the 15" because they give you more sidewall which translates into more flex around the rooks. fitment is fine and no issues with my Rock krawler Tie Rod.

Ya I made sure the eaton was the four pin model. Part #19977-010 so I should be good to go.
