Great thread. Kudus to all those who gave advice, and to the OP for getting it done!

For anyone (like me) who is planning an install like this one, the digital camera is your friend. Take lots of shots from different angles before and during dis-assembly. Then, when re-assembling everything you can check what you are doing against the way things were originally located.

Default Updated Pics

Been away from the forums resting up and enjoying the long weekend... finally got some pics of the finished product to show you guys. Enjoy.

Here's the before (stock everything):



Here's the after (2.5" AEV XT and 315/70R17s on Argent Pintlers):




I've been away all weekend for a wedding and haven't had much driving time, but so far, so good.

Again, can't thank everyone enough for all the help during the install. Definitely wouldn't have been able to get through it without y'all.

Looks great!!! Now it looks like what a Jeep should look like..lol. I just did my install too. You should think about adding the control arm drop brackets....my ride is awesome with them.

Thanks! Saw yours as well- really like those Savegre's. Control arm brackets are sitting in the garage and should go on next week, glad to hear you're liking them.
