Are you kidding? I'm not going to be the only guy in New england with mods on the JK. I see about 10 a day and not one modification.

Ok I saw one guy once with a pretty sweet green 4 door with Army decals on it. Never saw him again.

As for the 3" lift. I beleive this is the point on a 2 door where you are likely to have to change the track bar and control arms to adjust the castor angle in the front. I beleive you get away with a little more on the 4 door on the angle for the drive shafts. I have read you can get away with the 3" and the driveshafts being stock on the 2dr but like stated before you are running a higher angle and they will not last as long.

The black diamond kit comes with alignment cams and I will change the arms and driveshafts when I have some more dough (stage 2 ).
