Jabbarjaw's Countdown to Build-Up

Looks really good. I liked the first set of after pictures and then you increased the notch and it looks even better!

Were you able to easily adjust it on the car or did you have to remove the entire assembly?
 
So you only put the rear trim spacer on the drivers side, right? And it only gained you a 1/8th difference between driver rear and passenger rear? I would have thought it would do more.

I have one that I've been waiting to put in, but I'm worried it may tilt it too much to then lean to the passenger side. I'm hoping it lifts the rear overall slightly as well.

Yeah. I only added "leveling" spacers to the driver side. It helped bump up the heavy side, but not completely even.

Thanks! I had to pull the whole assembly. You could probably do it on the vehicle if you have spring compressors. Honestly though, removing/adjusting them doesn't take very long.
 
Installed some RCI rear LCA skids:







Then for the coup o' de grace:

SHOES!!

255/80R17 Cooper ST MAXX on Method NVs

Man, that looks nice. What's the backspace/offset on those wheels?

I like the 255/80 idea but have no desire to do a BMC. Seems like results vary depending on wheels, spacers, lift, divine providence, etc.
 
I'm honestly surprised more people don't go with a 255/80 tire. I think it looks awesome.

I agree ...thanks.

0/4.75"

No BMC, and I chalk that up to good beer!
 
The sway bar links created a loud metallic clicking noise, so I pulled them off adjusted, tightened, etc. and put them back on. Same clicking noise. Put my stock links back on and no noise at all. Leaving the stocks on till I get this figured out.
 
Reinstalled my MSTUB rear sway bar links. Had to make them non-disconnecting to get rid of an annoying metallic ping everytime I hit a bump. No dig on MSTUB at all ...love the links, just couldn't get the disconnecting rears to work right. Fronts will go in on Sunday when I install my Toytec struts.

Then my OCD kicked in ...



 
Finished up my CB install. SWR is 1.5 on 1 and 40. Just need to figure out where i want to mount the hand set.















Leaving the option for the Aux wire open...
