- 2018 JLUR
Just did my LCA swap. I pretreated with kroil yesterday and was not tough to get loose. Getting to 190 ft-lb on the ground was tough for the front 2. I did the initial work on ramps. I used a ratchet strap to coax the second LCA to align ...probably less than the 1/4” length change.
I took it for a 10 mile winding drive and a brief stint on the interstate at 65 and seems to run tru. It also is more cooperative centering up following a turn. I crossed a couple Rough RR tracks, straight and diagonal and did not feel like the Feedback had changed.
My pre and post measurements indicate that the change added 2 degrees on a stock JLUR. Ended at 6.7+/- . I used the camber bubble 40 degree rollover Method to measure.
I plan to add 0.75” spacer to the front for sag correction in the near future. One change at a time.
I work slow. It took me a little over an hour, maybe 90 minutes. Younger and more agile hands will complete in 45-60 minutes.
FWIW I weighed the new bars and they are almost 2# heavier (each) than the stock version.
