Took us 2.5 hours. Thats including the adj. Trackbars. Make the trackbars 1/4" longer then the factory ones (per Dave) and they were dead on.

Watch the rear brake lines they get tight. I removed them from the mounting bracket to install the springs and then mounted them back up. There IS enough room just not enough to get the springs in. Hence the removal.

Oh I didn't notice but if you have a rubi, watch the cable on the front end housing. it has a plastic push holder pin that fastens it to the diff. Its gets VERY tight...I pulled this out to get the front axle to drop far enough. Then put it back when I was done.

Thanks JeepDog for the reply and the info on the 1/4" longer tip.

Hopefully I wont run into to many problems tomorrow evening and will be able to get it done in 3 hrs or less.

Got my OME HD kit yesterday. Installed the front springs and shocks last night and then ran out of daylight so we had to stop. Will install the rear springs and shocks today and post some pics this afternoon.

Finished the install of my OME HD today. I love it. Full traction adjustable track bars get installed tomorrow. I am running Toyo OC M/T 35x12.50 r17.
