Did you just splice more cable in??? Didn't think you could do that?

Thanks. Not only do they have more droop, but they are much smoother in their transition which makes the ride a lot nicer.

The BAS/ABS line is only two wires, so I spliced 6" in to each side (soldered, taped, and shrink-wrapped). I also removed their uppder bracket which gave me another 4" too. I already run 28" brake lines but may lengthen them further to be safe. I tied the two lines together so the ABS and brake lines stay together (out of the way) from my tires.

Any word? Are they in????

One week and counting! At least get the fronts in, if you can. You can even skip the front bump stops initially if you don't have time.

Nope, they are possibly going to start shipping Friday. Looks like I will be dragging over the rubicon with my old suspension!

Got a lot done on the Jeep this last week. PJOHN helped me with braided steel brake lines, evap relocation, and Coast 1310 install. I painted and installed new generation PSC D44 diff cover. And finally BKGM Jeepers helped out with the 4.5" takes from his JK. I think it is finally Trail Rated.
