Sort of. I got the Duroflex lift which is the GCL without the ARB shocks and rear trackbar. I added the ARB shocks and will eventually get their rear trackbar.

Any pics or tips would be appreciated as my 2.5" GCL has just shipped. Are you planning on installing the arms and trackbars as set from MC and then adjusting or are you going to try to baseline them for 2.5" pre-install? I know they ship set up for 3.5" lift.

I'd second that. I'm excited but a bit nervous about installing the kit. I've installed kits on my tj and tj in the past. But any tips will help

That's the 3.5 right? Looks great! Although looks like a slight rake as well. Did you have that rake with your 2.5's too? What wheels/size are those?
