Today I change out my stock front bump stops for these! Now it's time to see if they work!
Installed a aal leaf in the rear of the jeep and tree my 5/8 booms back in the front to level it back out. I also tried out my front bump stop's but the are still a hair to short!

I am running 3.5 fabtech springs, rear tough country aal, rear 1.25 boom shackle, front 5/8 boom shackle, and 1.25 body lift. My rear springs have sagged out really bad with the bumper/tire carrier, full size spare, high lift sitting back there than there is the loss of lift from the 8.8 lift. So total lift is around 5.25 ish! And I traded a buddy my front stock stops for the ones I have now I don't know who made them!

Yeah I fit but the top rubs the garage door as I drive in haha, And so far I love the 35s! I am on the fence on my game plan for the jeep as of right now. I know for sure that I am going to add to my cage. But now I am not sure if I want to go with a soa or just buy a new sua lift. I am also un decided on if I want to do a motor swap or just stick with my 2.5! I am kinda leaning towards staying with the 2.5 and adding the Teraflex 4.1 tcase, if I did do a motor swap it would still be a year or two out and I would't waste the money on the 4.1 since I couldn't use it in the swap. So help me make up my mind guys!!!

Yeah I have taken the traction bar and steering into consideration while thinking about the soa. I am just worried about sitting to big on 35s. I want to say coils are out of the picture as of right now maybe later down the road haha. The only things keeping me on the fence between soa and sua is the ride and flex difference between the to. Quick update on the jeep I pull the ecu out to look for bad connections and found two pins bent pins, I tried to straighten them but needed up replacing the ecu with a new reman one. It idles better but is still running like poo (popping threw the intake, and wot rev past 4k)

Lol the poor little ax5 seems to be holding up to my abuse well besides the synchro's going out but hat been like that since I got the jeep. I don't really understand the different t case ratio's and how they work I just know I will have more grunt in low range with the teracase....... Any way I went out will a couple friend for some Sunday wheeling and had a very long day. My buddies Xj lost his lf axle shaft, upper and lower ball joints, and his rear drive shaf in less then 5 seconds haha took us 3 hrs to get him going again lol. Sorry I didt get any good wheeling shots. Almost forgot I put a nice dent in the .120 wall slider tube this weekend Ahhh fun times!
