Can't help you with the sizes but make sure you get the correct grade and use the correct torque settings.

Go to the m.o.r.e. website....thay have instructions and a list of the hardware. Just buy 1" shorter bolts.

I'm interested in the lift kit if you're getting rid of it. PM me.

Thanks guys, I had thought of the reverse engineering but was worried about thread length.
The reason Im thinking of removing it is to lower the cog a little. I flexed the jeep as far as I could w/ the front disco attached and had tons of room.
I plan on disconnecting the sway bar this weekend and flexing it out, if I still have plenty of room than I will pull it and sell it.
If it goes you guys will be the first to know through pm's w/ rubi getting the first shot.

Is the only difference the number of mounts? I made the pucks/spacers for my TJ a couple of years ago...not hard, just time consuming. The front body mounts are what I would have trouble with.

I just PMed ya.
