What other parts need to be replaced after the lift is installed? I hear a lot about angles being terrible on the shafts and control arms and bushings and joints all out of whack?
3.5” is the max you can go before you need to worry about pinion angles… they also make control arm drop brackets for $100 to get your arms back to near level for OEM settings but it’s not “needed”
@@howweroll7 correct! Like I said, you can do control arm drop brackets to help with the on road drive ability but the angles on a 3.5” lift are fine. Obviously changing anything will speed up degradation of the parts but that’s part of modifying your vehicle…
With the lift I purchased rancho drop brackets and also a rear tera flex control arm bracket which made my Rubicon ride like stock but modified 😂 best mod's I have done to my jeep

Will I need extended break lines and locker plug extension?
I'm looking to install this 3.5 inch lift in my JT. I already have a leveling kit in front. Should I still use leveling kit with this lift or not.

So what I don’t understand is why are they putting out these lift kits that do not correct pinion angle or caster?

If i was to add this lift kit would i have to regear if i wanted 37s?
You don’t need too but I’d definitely recommend it
We agree!
Where can i get the spring compressor from?
You don't need spring compressor if you remove front drive shaft and loosen up upper and lower control arms
