I would say comp corners, but I know you better than that, so looks like stretch kit time... Lol now I can have a partner in crime.. lol question is how many inches you going?

Damn... Look at my bitch go!


Fine work there. Mine is next... I want hints and gotchas.

How are you doing the rear? I was thinking though the tub for mine... I know you have the poly kit, but thought their stretch wasn't really ready for prime time?

Details!!

And thanks for going through this first. ;-)

The Plan;

* Custom Lower arm set-up with high-clearance bracketry on the axle. Will not use upper arms, but instead use the Rock Krawler 3-link set-up. Shooting for 8" of stretch.
* River Raider full corner armor, trimmed to match my cut lines on the sheet metal. ORO LiteDot tail lights.
* Poly frame-side trackbar relocation bracket.
* Custom coilover mounting and frame notching by G&G offroad.
* Relocate Fuel filler tube to the front of the wheel well.
* Custom roll cage frame tie-ins.
* Longer Driveshaft.
* New 41" Iroks to finish the job.

Painted and installed. Wearing Krylon black rattle-can just like the rest of my junk. I neet to install the ORO Litedots and add a little silicon to the gaps, then the comp cut will be done. Then on Monday, its off to G&G to have the frame notched and the coilover towers welded in. Rock Krawler is taking forever to send me my upper 3-link bracket and axle truss, so that might be a hold-up to the project.

Looks good Chris. Does the stretch allow you to mount the CPI Ives outboard on the frame ( notch)?

no, going to run them just inboard and up through the tub into the trunk. Just not a good way to go outboard without rubbing on a flexy JK, even with the frame notched out.

G&G made some AWESOME arms for my Jeep. A sneak peak of how it will look from the side;
