sort of off topic but for 96xj and cdiekhans

lower control arm 02-04 (R) 52088636AE
lower control arm 02-04 (L) 52088637AD
lower control arm 05-07 (R) 52088636AF
lower control arm 05-07 (R) 52088627AF

wonder how much difference there really is?

Also the steering knuckle is the same through all years so still a mystery why we had that (little) problem

also something else according to the info I have here....
lower cam bolt
02------- 6507321AA....$38.60
03-07--- 6507912AA.....$14.00
lower cam bolt washer $ 8.35, shows all the same clear through ???

No matter what part# you order for the LCA you get the same part and the last 2 letters will be "AC".When I did my LCA's I ordered the part# that was stamped on the LCA's(ended with "AC"),the place said they where updated to the "AF" part #,when I got them they had the casted part # with the last 2 letters bing "AC",go figure :roll:

hehe well, it's all good, looks great, painted my skids last weekend, and 3 days later proceeded to scratch 1/4th of it off and crumple my tranny skid on a cement step to within less than 1/16th of my tranny pan, it left one teeny tiny speck of a dent in the pan about the size of a 5 year olds pinkie nail

Cdiekhans, did you use two or three conduit nuts? I like how she sits.

Thanks for the information! I think going with the clevis lift is the way to go. tjkj2002 said I would be losing articulation by adding the OME CRD HD Coils whereas the clevis lift with the OME gasser HD’s would give me the same height as the OME CRD HD’s but allow for flex.

Before the Clevis..... I had a top plate on top of the Frankenlift.... It worked fine... But I'm picky..

With that set up I only had 1-0 threads showing on each of the bolts on the top... I know it was probably fine.... :roll:

I just didn't like it... We took the plate off and did 3 conduit nuts... It should be the same as the plate... But it seems a lilbit higher... I'll rock 3 for a while....

Until the next time I'm in Toledo... :twisted:

cdiekhans, have you pounded down your pinch welds? Looks like you are running a 245/75R16 (30.7" inch tire)

You shouldn't need to pound pinch welds with that sized tire and a 2.5" lift.

Yes They are pounded down.... I could flaten the plastic a little more... But I'm lazy..

depends on what wheel / tire combo you have, have seen 245-75s hit the pinch weld before

JeepinJarhead03 · **Posted:** Sun Apr 05, 2009 12:22 am

i've seen 235-70's hit the pinch weld all day long

with no lift of course :lol:
