LIFT HEIGHT HELP/SUGGESTIONS

[offroader461]

OK so i "re-lifted" the front of my MJ the past couple days...heres what i got in:

RE drop brackets
RE fixed UCA
Pro-comp ADJ lowers

now i would like to know what height im roughly sitting at with these:

RE 3.5 coils (used)
ACOS-->spun down 1.25"

i measured the "DIRTY" way and im supposed to be at a little over 5"...My problem is that i bought a RockKrawler Trackbar and HD bracket for a 4-6" and my bar will not fit correctly...im thinking either im too low in the front and/or the coils have sagged lower than 3.5" so i should just by some 4.5"....i plan on doing a SOA in the back which sould net me 5-6" alone...any suggestions...I would like to get it back on the road SOON :badpc:

what do you mean that the tb will not fit corectly? i had there 4-6" tb on my xj with 5" and it was way to short, got a used one from a friend for 6-8" and it fits perfect

i bolted it up at the axle end and started the truck to center the axle under the body and i would have to remove the jam nut and thread the end all the way down and thats why im thinking that im way too low in the front...it actually got better when i spun my ACOS down but its still tight

how did you measure to center the frt? i went from the top ball joint to the frame rail. maybee they sent you the wrong bar or they have horrible quality control

[offroader461]

i bought it from a local shop in the valley here....i called and asked him and he said that im probably too low but i wanted to seek other opinions to whats going on with the front of my MJ

[offroader461]

man, Like i said, this is the third time i have heard of RK trackbar fitment issues. You want me t ocheck and see if those coils are still at the JY? I am going tomorrow to get a front dshaft and tcase shifter.

[offroader461]

yea if those coils are there grab um for me if ya can...ill pull mine out and check them against those to see whats up

i would post a pic but i have glasswerks fenders so its kinda decieving how high/low it is

trust me we can tell many things from a straight on view of the axle assembly body and trackbar, Im not thinking height at the moment

[offroader461]

ok lemme go out and snap a pic of the frontend....trackbar is not connected at the moment either
