thank you for the input

Hey @Chris , so im in the process of redoing the suspension and steering set up in my tj and am going through these threads and think I kinda screwed myself. I was working with a TJ "specialist" out here in the phoenix area and he convinced me that the T style crossover set up works the best for...

so going into this when I explained to the builder that I was open to 35s but wanted to do this the right way. The right way he said was to 86 the dana 30 bc he said there is only so much I could do to build up a strong dana 30, that at the end of the day the ring gear is taking on all that work...

I will be going with the BMB BL tho

dang, so it sounds like I made the wrong purchase :rolleyes: these guys selling sh!t made it sound like I was making the best decision with this MC one. Its weird to me that these companies would make a kit if its not the correct route to take. ugh

ohhh...so in other BL kits they don't fit into the isolators? I've seen where its almost like they fit on top and measures almost 1/2-3/4" taller than lets say that 1" BL that was installed. Like it will be a true 1" or 1-1/4" bc everything fits. I follow you if I explained that correctly. hah

Right and this is exactly why I was I guess convinced the t crossover was the best option. the tie rod roll was never brought to my attention tho. One guy was trying to sell me on the RPM high steer kit but bc of the design of the tj, the bump steer would have been worse. it was explained to me...

the jeep rn has 2.5-3" but im not 100% which exactly. the original owner had it installed but its been on 33s with no clearance issues so the 33s would be fine. I do want 35s but ppl have said it will only be a matter of time before that ring gear breaks so I put them aside until I can get...

Is there something in-between better than a rebuild and not as pricey as the pcs that will do? Im trying to keep this in a budget since im already looking at over 4k depending on these other parts I get. but if it really is that much of a no brainer on the pcs then ill do what's needed. Im def a...

Thank you! Ill look into those for sure. I was trying to keep it in my budget since I already am paying a good chunk of change for all this but ill see what I can do as far as the pcs box. Black Max...ok if it rides and performs well for the price, is very appealing thanks. Im kinda surprised...

Hey y'all, Im new here(first post) but this is aways my go to forum for anything I'm looking for, you guys are great here. So I have a 2006 65th anniversary edition wrangler that im working on giving a nice refresher. Once this build is done It will be seeing the trails a lot more for sure but...
