89eliminator Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 new bumpstop configuration. just adding extensions to the coil bucket did not work. the upper stop passed it up cause of the angle during flex. i split the difference, keeping the lower portion adjustable while adding an aluminum spacer to the upper stop. finally put my pins on for when the swaybar is disco'd limiting straps at ride height. was worried about them contacting the d-shaft or tire. The upper arm prevents it from hitting the shaft while the brake lines prevent it from hitting the tire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

89eliminator Posted June 3, 2009 Author Share Posted June 3, 2009 steering box brace is in. won't have time till saturday to install it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
500 MJ Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Let me know what you think of that. I made my own cause I just didnt think that these ones looked beefy enough... Plus - it's not hard to make a new one if you have problems with this one, the clamp is the main thing I needed to make my own. Hopefully it works fine for you though.

89eliminator Posted July 9, 2009 Author Share Posted July 9, 2009 no its not. still trying to figure out what went wrong. sucks cause i just replaced that bearing. maybe it was faulty cause everything was put together correct and it had enough oil in it.

TNT Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 If you have a SYE did you raise the diff fill hole to compensate for the extra rotation of the diff. Rotating the pinion up lowers the fill hole. If thats a D44, I have a 3/8" thick cover with a raised fill hole. :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
