I installed the full kit from Steersmarts along with a Falcon 2.1 SS. Getting the draglink separated from the pitman arm was a bit difficult even with a pickle fork also just a heads up for anyone who adjust the draglink make sure the Jeep is on the ground or the tires are on ramps as this will keep them from moving when you make the adjustments. Should be common sense but I was excited to get it done and overlooked that part. By now most of us have seen these parts from steersmarts but I’ll post some pics anyway and yes they do live up to the hype.

Have you found an improvement in the steering feel?

Installed the Springtail rear door folding table. Had a bit of overspray paint in the predrilled holes on the door, but was able to work through it.

Hit a few dirt roads today and couldn't hear a rattle from the table (and I'm super sensitive to those things).

I did get an little rattle from some molle bags once I strapped them on. I think it's from the clips on the back. I might try some painters tape over what I think is causing the noise to see if I can quiet it down.

No pics, but installed cooltech's JL cb antenna mounting kit, chose the 4in red antenna. Also reinstalled my rear view camera back on, extended the wiring for 3rd brake light, installed rotopax mount on my tire carrier, and wired up and tucked in CB radio wiring.

Metal Cloaked the front and rear diff skids. Super easy install. MC only sells the front diff skid with their cover, so I had to paint and install that as well. I used bed liner for the paint since I already had some. The new diff cover is about as thick as a cast iron skillet and weighs about 3 times what the factory one does. With the new cover the front diff holds about a quart more fluid.

I have a rock-induced exhaust leak to fix then I’ll be installing the rest of the skids. They are very high quality for sure.

I got the tie rod from the steersmarts booth at the Jeep invasion event in Gatlinburg (Great deal)and I ordered the rest of it from @Northridge4x4 and got a $60 gift card as that was the promotion they were running.
