Okay, here's the problem. I got excited....REALLY EXCITED, and ordered my lift before putting as much thought into it as i should have.
I ordered it with all the things in the original list- no exchanges. I plan on upgrading the parts, but didn't have the $$ to do that then. I should have waited.
Now I have a tc drop kit, track bar, disconnects, and fixed upper and lower control arms that I have no intend to use. Would anyone buy any of this stuff for a reasonable price? or should i just try and contact RE and ship the parts back and pay their difference for the upgrades? I plan on upgrading to the 1660 track bar and bracket, adjustable control arms, and JKS discos.
I am finally starting my new job tomorrow, so will have a pay check again- time to finish my shopping list.
While I'm at it, i want to ask a question- I read not to get adj. lower control arms becasue they loosen and move or something... Is this true?
Please- I want to do this lift MOSTLY right the first time, so tell me anything at all that you would recomend adding at lift-install time. I already plan on a SYE and have that figured out.
Here's the list i made of parts to replace, and what to replace with or add to the system.
