This. ^^ Tying it up as high as possible is asking for a punctured sidewall. The top of the tire leans in towards the frame during flex (right where you have the swaybar secured if place it up high) add some steer & goodbye sidewall. As far as securing, normal level position & just wrap a bungee around the frame & swaybar.

 

Cool thanks. So no issues with movement and obstruction. I'd hate for the bungee to get wrapped up or something. I appreciate the info.

 

guys not trying to hijack the thread, but I put my JKS discos on yesterday along with a 2.5" coil lift.

When I looked at them today, the driver side disco is SOOOO close to the spring it doesn't seem to be normal. Is it? I might have 3-4mm of clearance.

Also....When I tried to pull the driver side off to see of something was wrong it seems as if I did not adjust the right length as the thing was so tight the bushing popped out and stayed on the pin (yes I greased them). So I had to push the bushing back in and adjust the driver side longer than the passenger side. Jeep is in my driveway so I assume I am on "level" ground here in Florida.

I can now slide both discos on and off easily without the binding of the bushing like before. But the driver side is longer than the passenger and seems to be way to close to the spring for my untrained eye.

Any thoughts?

 

Agreed, my apologies. I actually meant level with frame rails. Didn't have time to revamp my post today. Stock position is what you would like

 

Never an issue. I leave the bungee wrapped around the frame on pssr side all the time, a quick unhook & wrap around the swaybar when disco'd & all set. Keep in mind the bar is pretty good at staying put on its own, it doesnt just flop down when disco'd. Unless youre dropping off hard on ledges or jumping, the bungee just gives insurance it wont move on ya.

 

Sounds like a bowed spring on the pssr side. If youre doing install on level ground, the links should be the same length. A little bit of sag on pssr side is normal (full gas tank). If its excessive you may have a bowed or sagged spring. Check to see if its seated correctly & check for an obvious bow to the front also. I has an issue w/a set of toast 3" springs TF warrantied & had the same issues. Not sure if you have an adj trackbar, but if you dont have the axle centered, it may be placing the end link right at the spring. Just some hints, hope it helps.

 

I tied it up at the upper coil support, but dont remember the side. At one side (pass or diver) there are two holes there, where I can tie it up...
If I remember I will take a picture tomorrow...

I didnt like the idea of letting a bungee cord there...

 

Thanks everyone, I got home and checked it out and see what ur talking about as far as tying to frame. Should be good to go. I also have more sag on passenger side. Not a lot but I notice it. My disco is out farther on my driver side to compensate. Hopefully it won't get bad, I haven't had long so we'll see. I wonder if I can get another replacement spring???

 

If its a stock coil, I'd see about bumping up another number or 2 (both sides)..

 

Not stock, 2.5 skyjacker coils
