Part #:
Anytime you lift your Jeep, you need to look at what is attached between the frame and the axles. Things like swaybar links, air or electrical lines to the lockers, speed sensor cables, brake lines, and axle breather lines. All of these need to be either extended, relocated, or modified. Swaybar links and brake lines come with most kits. Speed sensors and lines for lockers can be unclipped and usually have enough length. The biggest thing that we forget about is the axle breathers. If they come off they leave a path open for water and debris to get into the axle. Not a good thing if you wheel in area where you will encounter lot of water. Luckily, they can easily be extended with just a few parts from the hardware or auto parts store.

Common Sense and Safety should always be observed when working on your vehicle or doing modifications. Jackstands, wheel blocks, disconnecting the battery are a few of the basic safety precautions that should be used and may not be mentioned in the write ups on this site. You are responsible for your own installation, these write ups are a helpful guideline and should not be taken as an official installation instruction. My write up may be different from the kits currently out there, so alwasy double check the manufacturers installation instructions when installing anything. I try to keep the site up to date with changes that have occured as I discover them, but may not have the latest unless someone lets me know. If you feel that an install is above your capabilities after reading my write ups, I recommend getting together with a club and getting some help. Only a few times have I needed to employe some actual help from a shop to get something done. Usually welding or A/C work. While I have spent many years working on mechanical systems, I am not an expert, nor do I pretend to be one. I hope these write ups have been useful to you.
