Pre Assembly

Stock comparison

Sleeves for the stock sway bar to protect the threads of the new bolts.

The overall Eyelet to frame mount should be 6 1/2" so instead of cutting the bushing like others have, i cut the sleeve down a hair. The heims add about an inch if not a little less so you'll need to do one or the other. I refused to cut a perfectly new bushing.

Measurement for what length you want the sleeve to be

All combined, back at 6 1/2" like desired.

Installed (notice its now parallel to the lower link. Definitely an improvement from the OEM link angle.

Very easy installation and build, i highly recommend them. Im only in this about $40.

Flushed out my power steering fluid. It was pretty damn gross. The noise i had, went away. I had a little groan from take off and figured i'd start with the fluid.

went up to the mountains this past weekend, wheeled a bit. Suspension is perfect, theres parts where i was 60mph+ and it was smooth as glass offroad. Very impressed. Now i just want to strap the front and add a better bump stop up front.

Started building a box today. To fit comfortably within the side of my cargo area. I've had the 8" in factory location which I explained and showed in the beginning of my build. It was time to move on to bigger and better but still not take up a lot of space because I use my cargo area almost daily.

I got half way through this before I decided I should take pics so this is all I have.

Tomorrow I'm going to carpet it to match existing tan carpet. Also going to close off the box a bit, take the cubic feet down a touch as the sub only needs 0.80 (minimum)and its sitting around 1.25 right now. Maximum is 3.0

Ill update this tomorrow with progress.

What sub are you going with?

I like the Amsoil!! Getting ready to change the trans and PS fluid this weekend to Amsoil. Rig looks great, you've been busy!

Finished up today. Very happy with how it turned out. I closed off the box to 0.90 cubic feet for optimal sound. Carpeted it up and fully secured it. I'm happy with it.

I went with a Kicker CVT10 because I had it in the garage lol

Repurpose the carpet from the shelf?

Cargo mat below it. I use the shelf with my bike mounts every day so it made no sense to keep it plus I like the logo. Worked out good.

Oh I see now, didn't even look at the floor just the box, I like it though. I've been wanting to do something about my sub since its blown and the box is huge and in the way
