Just goes to show with the best laid plans that "Shit Happens".
Any 2 hour job is one broken bolt away from turning into a 3 day shit show.

What are your thoughts on the Fox Stabilizer? Better drivability?
Noticeable difference. I think the factory stabilizer is adequate but on the loose side. The Fox made a big change that I could feel at city driving speeds but have not had the chance to get up to highway speeds yet to know how it handles yet.

i noticed that the Rubi steel bumper i added didnt have covers on the back to protect the fog lights i get snow up here soon and that area would fill up for sure, so i took the covers off my plastic Mojave bumper and added them to my steel bumper.

i added some kc pro6 lights, i picked up a 6 light bar off fbm for a steal and was originally going to put just 4 on the bumper but the mounting brackets were all about 3in too big and their narrowest and with 5 (3 spot 2 wide) i needed only about 3/4 of an inch space to fit it at the mounts widest point. I tossed around just picking up a pair and merging them into a full light bar because i love the look but decided this route and saved myself the extra 900 bucks for the items needed to make that happen now just need to figure out what to do with the one left over pro6 spot. i used a diode dynamic 30in light bar mount and got some ss spacers to get the space i needed for the 5 lights, wiring the 2 wide amber to work independently for the 3 white spots

Installed some HD Clayton springs, Falcon SP2 3.3 Fast Adjust Piggyback Shocks, and a Hellwig sway bar. It's like riding on a cloud.

Terraflex 1.5” leveling kit, MOPAR Performance lower control arms and an alignment. It rides every bit as good as stock with firmer steering. Well worth the money. Recently added 35x315 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. I’m ready for the Great Smokey Mountain Jeep Invasion! Yea Baby!!!!?

Looks good. Someone just told me that the longer LCAs aren’t necessary and pull it outta spec for caster. I’m so confused.

I’m certainly no wrench turner, however when I researched this issue, it seemed that for a 1.5” lift the lower control arms are not necessary. I also found that many experienced suspension people say the JTRs have limited caster from the factory and the MOPAR Performance lower control arms add some caster as the vehicle is minimally raised. Like I said, I’m pleased with the end result. I wish I was still physically able to do the installation myself.
