Come on - it's the ultimate ride. Even the peaceful protesters give me the thumbs up and let me pass in it......Im sorry you have to drive that thing, would you like me to drive it off a cliff for you?

I get the reasoning behind the geometry brackets. They are great for a mall crawler to get a more compliant ride by getting the arms parallel to the ground.
I don't understand why you would combine this with heavy duty adjustable arms intended for off road use.
You don't need the adjustable length as the geometry brackets get you the added caster as well, and we can see the Synergy are set to their shortest setting - which is factory arm length.
Sure it looks bling compared to the stock arms and perhaps that is what the intent was?
Everyone please check-in with @oceanblue2019 before modifying your suspension.I run on trails mostly and don't do severe rock crawling. Get out of here with the passive agressive BS. They aren't on their shortest setting. I snapped that pick right after I dropped it to the ground to make adjustments. If they cause any issues, I'll take them off, until then, they work very well and deflect a lot of rutty abuse to the frame instead of the steering. Honestly I've seen long arm kits with less clearance, and they shift the mounting point further back creating even more clearance issues.
I can tell you..... That if it made sense to run geometry brackets with their arms/lift kit then Synergy would make them and they don't.Everyone please check-in with @oceanblue2019 before modifying your suspension.

What issues will I have? Clearance? I don't seem to have an issue with that. So what other issue? Other than someone doesn't make it, so meh..? Again, you do you. I've had them on and I've had them off. It drives better with them, and handles 15 mph bumps and ruts on the trails better. I am not sure why in my case of it being better under every circumstance as being wrong. I don't see logic in that argument. If I decide to go rock crawling, I can have them off and the links reinstalled in under an hour, so it is not a big deal. Hell, I have the tools with me to do it on a trail. Thanks for the advice in any case, but they aren't having anything but a positive effect right now.I can tell you.....

Metalcloak doesn't as well.
Rock Krawler doesn't as well.
So there you go - the top 3 suspension manufactures don't sell what this fool has bolted to his Jeep. Why? Because it doesn't make sense.
It's a fairly small garage, so the vehicles need to be in the location they are currently in. Swapped around the cars wouldn't fit in let alone have room for the top. I do like your idea though of running the cables through to the attic. I will think about that. For that case I would likely mount the pulleys on the floor, so I'll need to look different type of pulleys, but that's easy.I might be missing a detail here, but would you be more comfortable if you swapped the vehicle locations and parked the Jeep, nose first, under the top? If you have just attic space above your garage it looks like that hoist would be easy enough to rig up in the attic with holes for the cables in the ceiling. That would allow you to suck the top clear up to the ceiling with something like pool noodles as bumpers to protect it.
