          i knew someone was gonna say it...... but the general consensous so far is that its fine how it is "note" how nicely it tucks on the tire stack bigger tires and your loosin flex and we arnt going crazy with this jeep like cutting fenders and what not.

              Did you disconnect the swaybars? It doesn't look like it in the pics. I'm running about 3" over-all lift in the front, and just 2" spacers in the rear, I'm not having any issues with stuffing 32"s. Just my $.02

                  Get some Quick disconnects, put the rear swaybar back. That way you keep all your onroad handling, and you can disco your front for max articulation, then reconnect once your off the trail. You can also leave the rear swaybar off, and get discos up front as well. Most people leave the rear on because it flexes anyhow, but helps reduce body roll on the road, so it doesn't greatly improve offroad performance to disco it. The front swaybar is much thicker and stiffer so any obsticle you go over, your whole jeep is going roll hard tward the lowside anytime your front axle goes off-camber, and without the tension in the rear, there is no resistance. Anyhow, JKS makes great front discos for the TJ, you can also do the budget ones I had for a while.


                  They were pretty much this set up.

                            those new rough country shocks are pretty sweet apparently

                            97 TJ that I think is pretty neat.
