    A small handful of select mods.
    Diameter of the bolt is the same. I am not certain the length you picked up. Mine just barely clear the tank. Had to thread the nut on as the bolt went through. Also i did not put them in shackle from Defined Engineering on the frame side. I mis-spoke. I only ordered 4 bolts for the spring bushings themselves. There is already a zerk on the shackle.

    Hmm interesting. Sounds good. I will order two more of the same ones then hopefully the squeaks will stop.

    Would the factory shackles lower the rear end? Not sure if I have them I will look. Thanks bob.


    Fuck yeah man that's badass!!! Can't wait to see those bumpers you make.
    Let's go wheeling!

    Got a couple things done that I have been wanting to for a long time..

    Swapped to older model front cup holder. Finally got sick enough of the rubber ones.

    Also put a Salex glove box organizer in. Very nice product. Made local here in Denver too.

    Nice! That's funny I got rid of my old click center divider cause the bottle kept falling over and got the new rubber ones.

    I got that divider set up for the glove box and the center console. Love that set up.

    I've been trying to get that style cup holder for a while now and local people keep saying they have on in their garage they'll give me and then I never hear back. lol

    From the sounds of it... they both suck ass so maybe what I should be looking for is a better option than both. I'd still like to try one of that style for myself to see what it's about because then at least I know if it blows for my needs.

    That glove box organizer is nice and a better design than most I've seen. I may have to look into that.

    Yeah I'm liking it a lot so far. I couldn't stand those rubber ones! They always pop out. It's nice to be able to clean them though.


    Yes you should. They're made here in CO.

    As for the cup holders, I wanted to at least try them out.

    I saw that. Just not sure I want to pay nearly $30 for such a device. I'll have to think on it and wait for your long-term review to help my decision.
