Clayton 3.5" overland
Fox shocks
Rusty's Offroad aluminum steering system
Metalcloak Durospring bump stops

Finished 1/3 of the front today (springs, shocks, Sway bar end links, bump stops)
- next will be control arms and then lastly steering system.

Then I'll start on the rear suspension.

Looks great!
Quick tip if you haven’t got the track bar on yet and isn’t lined up. Get it back on the tires, so suspension taking the full weight and have someone turn the steering wheel (can do it yourself too, just bit more back and forth) the drag link will push or pull the body lining the track bar up

Thanks. Everything has gone smooth so far. Only pain in the but was dealing with the sway bar end links.

Rear suspension (Springs, swaybar endlinks and shocks) completed last night. No more Carolina squat. Next step, control arms and steering system

Your Rubicon looks awesome, nice to see some photos of what a 3.5 lift kit looks like over stock.
Just pulled the trigger on a Meatalcloak Game Changer 3.5 suspension Lift kit for my Mojave. I will be using the stock shocks with the extended shock brackets. Be well James
