Hey, y'all. I posted this over at JF but didn't get all the info I was looking for... Hoping y'all can help.
I'm piecing a lift together, 'bout got all my parts, but unsure on a few things-
For caster, I've got RE adj lower arms. I was going to get an angle-finder, find a fixed point on the knuckles and reset it to that with the lower arms. Is that correct ?? How do you know when it's EXACTLY the same, side to side ??
How 'bout setting up the adj track bar- do diagnal measuring ??
For pinion angle, am I supposed to set the pinion straight with the driveshaft or set it an equal degree out, opposite of the yoke ?? Again- how do you get it EXACT ??
What's up with shackles- should hey point in, out, straight down
Also, I need some bushings and RE has a few different sets in their catalog available- Currie Johnnies, RE Super-Rides, RE Super-Flex, Daystar Polys.... will any of these retrofit into stock upper control arms ?? Should I box my uca's ??
My budget's about blown- ain't there some TJ or YJ brake lines we can use for extended lines ?!!? Any other tips ?!?
Sorry for the noob questions, but I want to set it up right the first time !!
Thanks.
