Thanks Todd, I appreciate the kind words. The bobbed bed on your JT is beautiful.

Am I the only one who didn't even notice the bobbed bed....LOL.

That's how you know it was done right.

Here's a video of the Pro X kit wheeling on some rocks.

That’s like cheating. Lol. Love the RK 3.5” kit on my JK

Dave does have some skill behind the wheel but the kit helps.

ROCK KRAWLER SUSP. - One of the members mentioned installing the cradle on the Pro-X kit to be difficult. He never mentioned or responded as to in what way that I saw.
Any tips or insight that you guys suggest that may of become apparent at a later date than when the instructions were written? Any particular problems or issues people are seeing with the install?

Yes, we found that Dana has had a pattern shift problem with the rear axle bosses and that any of the ones that aren't correct are put into JT's with automatic transmissions. So if you have a manual, you won't have any issue in the world, if you have an automatic, the pattern shift may be more challenging. We are adding more tolerance to the cradle to account for the pattern shift.

Damn...I have a M/T, need to order the pro-x rear, at least, before more tolerance is added!

You wont loose anything with greater tolerances, the automatic guys will gain but you wont loose.

I originally ordered my JTR with a manual trans but switched it to an automatic after talking with many people and finding that was the better option. I have a manual in my '08 JKU and just assumed that like the JKs, the manual would be the better option, but apparently that has changed tremendously with the new powerplant/trans combos.

I have an automatic so does this increase the need to have the cradle welded?

The automatic is IMO much better than the manual.

It would be unaffected.

@Rock Krawler Suspension Any updates on the hardware shortage situation? Curious when I may expect to see my rear Pro-X box ship as it is the only part of my lift that I haven't received. Or perhaps all the Pro-X's are now delayed a bit due to the pattern tolerance issue? Thanks!

No added delay, the kits are flowing out roughly 10-12 ProX kits a day, and going in the order received. If you want, I can pull your order and get you an ETA.
