March 2024 Metalcloak control arm drop brackets (Pro'lignment Kit) Since I'm running 5" of lift, I figured I'd reduce my front control arm angle to improve on-road feel. I felt the Metalcloak drop bracket offering is solid and I'm happy with the result. Asphalt potholes are much more forgiving...

Yep that's 100% the case. Same with a 1-1.5" leveling kit (spacer pucks)

Wow, a JT Overland, then a Mojave, then a JL 392, then a JT Rubicon all in 4 years? The man loves his Jeeps!

The total extended rear shock length eye to eye is 25.75”, so take 3.5” off that to get 22.25” at ride height. I didn’t measure the bypass zones on the test bench for the rear but the 7 7/8” of travel is the same as the front. I’d guess the ride zone is a little longer than the fronts, so 21.5”...

To add more to my original thread post: Sometimes springs sag over time and accessories (steel bumper, winch, a bunch of ducks) can cause them to ride lower, effectively shortening the ride height length of the shock. My OG post is describing the bypass zones of the shock. Jeep engineered...

The shock extensions keep the shocks in the correct bypass zone on the road, so the shocks work well.

Wow that makes it so much more enticing. Is there any more detail you can provide on what they said about that process?

I added an ARB air locker to the front of my Mojave and it works great. I think this is the ideal solution for rock crawling when one tire can't get as much grip as the other. In these low-speed scenarios, an LSD in the front likely wouldn't actuate as well as desired and therefore wouldn't give...

The AEV kit comes with front and back and I recommend that

Mojave is about 2" higher in the front than a Sport from the factory and 1" higher than a Rubicon. From the factory it's not going to accommodate bigger than a 35" without rubbing. It's expected that 37s rub without an aftermarket lift. You could try to trim out your fender liners to avoid...

Looks awesome. Love the look with the lift and the aggressive tires. Congrats and nice job!

Keep it up, lookin good!

Hope your Christmas was great too. Yes, I did change the T-case flange, and the Adams driveshaft came with flange. I followed this video to do it:

My hitch slider scraped several times, and I scraped the bottom of my back bumper corner a couple times. Nothing severe and I’d guess you’d have the same experience. My OEM front driveshaft boot would rub on the exhaust crossover while flexed out because of the thick diameter of the shaft, so I...

I did not measure, I just bought the one they make for the JT Rubicon that has the OEM-style flange, so I did not have to replace the flange coming out of the pinion, it just bolts right up. They have 3 JT variations - Sport, Overland, and Rubicon. I bought it from one of the big suppliers, but...

I did, and I think I forgot to post about it. I have an Adams 1350 front driveshaft. Stock rear.

Thank you! Yours looks awesome too. I actually have some drop brackets for Christmas - I still have the stock JTM Fox shocks and it feels bumpy, but I feel pretty confident the drop brackets will help me too. I'll of course post back after I get them installed.

Some more pictures of my recent Moab trip on Hell's Revenge and Poison Spider.

Looks awesome. Love those wheels with the white truck! I also have a Fox ATS adjustable stabilizer. It might not be the shocks - the 2.5 DSC's are great shocks and are known for not being too firm. The COR 3.5 lift is tall enough (at 4-4.5" actual front lift over stock) that it creates a steep...

Yep, formerly muddy clay.
