nice, virgin run in the dark... looks like everything held together. you have 4:88? how was the install on the rear? how much of the tooth did you have to shave off? have you tried any hill climbs or steep down hills? my rear feels alittle lighter then my front so somtimes when going up i 'm lifting tires. just checking with you sense you have the oppisite with lighter springs up front and stiffer in the rear

Absolutely awesome! Tell me your not thinkin' about those rock lights though... huh.... very sweet!


I'd love some rock lights. They help a ton. The ones the guy in the WJ had a little bigger than I'd like and I'd like LED ones, but his only cost $10 which is hard to beat.

Everything held up great and it did awesome. I do have 4.88s and no grinding of the ring gear with the Detroit install. I went up a steep hill, but not down one. Going up it felt perfectly stable and even. No tire spin and no lifting tires either. I'll let you know how it does going down a steep hill. I am glad I have the stiffer springs out back actually. The ride is perfect too. Not at all too stiff and rides just as nice as it did with my Frankenlift on it, better than tock for sure. If I were to do the front again, and I'll eventually swap them out, I'd go with 12" or even 14" coilovers and use softer springs like before and compress the coils a lot, especially the upper, so that there is very little up travel and a ton of droop. Right now the 10" coilovers are limiting the front flex more than I'd like. My buddy has 14" on the front and rear of his grand cherokee and is using 150 uppers and 300 lowers and the droop on his is ridiculous.
