the joint at the pitman is no where near maxed out, must be just the way it looks in the pic.

someone already pointed it out...but your pitman heim looks to be maxed out at static height...saw this on the same kit on another XJ here in town...looked scary:shocked:

Looks like a nice setup. I'm curious though -- how similar are the angles of the draglink to the trackbar? My understanding is the closer those two angles are to being the same the less pronounced bumpsteer will be.

Have you driven it yet? What are your impressions?

well, after a good bit of driving, i have a small case of bumpsteer, only because i have to much of a drop pitman arm, i'm going to get a stock one, that should cure it.

 

[westsacxj]

you have a chance to flex it out any?

If you need safety washers try ballistic fab.
www.ballisticfabrication.com
Their prices beat everyone.

No flex pics yet? I'm thinking of ordering this setup, just wanted to see how things went.

 

[nhrocker]

I'll let him explain with more detail, but he's already pulled it and ordered another companies kit.

 

[mack]

yeah, i took it all off and sold it, it just never fit right and the angles were just bad, but, thats on MY jeep, i can't say it would be the same on all.

 

[waxer]

Can you go into more detail on how this kit didn't work for you? I was prepared to order this kit soon and now have changed my mind simply on your experiences.

How exactly did it not fit right? How were the angles all off?

thanks...

Ditto.
I'm runnin 6.5" on my 97 and was looking @ this kit now I'm not to sure.
