Today the 2" spacers I ordered came in. Decided to put them on and go flex out the jeep at the "rock" in my neighborhood to check the rear corner armor clearance and the rear CO clearance.
It looks like my rear axle needs to go back a hair more so its lined up in the wheel well. As it is the only thing that still rubs under full flex is the rear CO, and only by a very small amount.

So my driver side front axle seal has been leaking gear oil for a while. I took a look at the axle when I had the tires off and noticed the driver side axle was bent. That mall crawling really put stress on that axle

Today I got a nice find off CL. Purchased a set of front JK rubi shafts with only 50 miles on the u joints. Ill switch out the bent short side with the new OEM one and keep the long side and slightly bent short side as spares for me and my dads JK.

Spent the past two days working on the jeep. I lowered the coilover mounts to get more uptravel, I reworked the track bar, and added in front sway bar mounts.
I reworked the track bar so now I have 0 bumpsteer. Before my steering geometry was out of whack so I had torque steer and bumpsteer. Really happy with how it came out. Also since I reworked the front coilover mounts, I have full 14" travel with nothing that binds.
I can finally drive fast on the freeway. All that is left to do is swap out some CO springs and the suspensionshould be perfect.
This is sooooo bad ass!
