Very interesting. Keep us posted please.
I fixed it, couldnt use thier torque specs for the bottom cap, 15ftlbs was too much, loosened them up and torqued them to 5ftlbs, much better. Could probably go a lb or 2 heavier, but right now they feel great

Finally got my lift kit put on this weekend. Metalcloak game changer 3.5 w/ Falcon 3.3 SP2 shocks. It was an entire weekend project and I would do it again.

Your Jeep looks great. However, looking at these springs it appears your lower control arms need adjusted out for more caster/alignment. Keep an eye on pinion angles after you push the axles out as well.

I installed a smart rearview mirror that acts as a front and rear dash cam. It's nice not seeing my headrests in the rear view mirror whenever I look back!

Pulled out all of the carpet in preparation for a trip to the sand dunes, went pretty easy but my wife thinks I’m crazy
You didn't take pictures along the way or make a video did ya? I want to remove mine and Rhino Line the inside. Only found 1 video on YouTube a couple months ago.

Looks great! So 35’s with no lift??? Do you ever get rub?
It will rub in a super hard turn against the lock. It’s minimal, in parking lot maneuvers. I’ve only heard it twice. I was worried about it rubbing during a panic stop but I’ve tested it a couple of times and get nothing. I’m extremely happy with it

I didn’t, but it was pretty simple. It is definitely designed to come out. The carpet is only perforated for the splits around the seat brackets, so the first time you have to cut or pull them apart. I was able to pull them apart by hand. If you just take your time you shouldn’t run into any trouble.
