Default Got my lift in..but

FINALLY got my RC 4" lift, spacers and disco's in tonight but have a question. When installing the lift kit, should I put in the new cam pins, or leave the stockers in place. If I leave the originals in, I don't have to cut out the hole for the new ones, but I'm not sure if I can get enough angle out of the stock ones. Any ideas or suggestions ? This is going on an 08 4dr Sahara.

Do a quick search on Cam Bolts before you install them. You'll come across a ton of negative feedback regarding those bolts, so do yourself a favor and hold off a bit until you get more info on the pro's/con's.

x2 ...You could also purchase a set of either front lower or upper control arms to dial in your ride and eliminate the need to use the cam bolts...

Take a look at this link, might help. Why only change upper control arms, or vice versa
