Ok cool and thanks for the info guys. I mean I can't say I disagree I want a reliable winch up front also. But if the HF one really is what people make it up to be I'm Ok with not needing to always buy name brand.
Even though I'll probably end up buying name brand haha. I'll just wait to see if my buddy's blows up soon. I still haven't gotten the bumper in yet so..

So is having the sway bar off supposed to be quite noticeable? Mines disconnected sincebi didnt have time for my quick discos and it honestly doesnt feel any different than when it was stock. I mean the ride itself isnt great since tbe alignments bad and om gettin good vibes since im at around 5-5.5"s but other than that its ok. I take turns at mach 3 all day long lol.

Have you ever used it before? Check the cable at the throttle body and make sure its connected. As salad said vacuum lines should definitely be checked.. 90% of cruise control problems on these jeeps is vacuum related. Just start checking the easy things first.

How would you know if your ujoints or the ball joint in a front shaft are bad? I have one for my rear when i get my sye done and the joints are dirty and greasy but they all moved fluidly and theyre spicer so most likely stock joints. But i figure why replace if theyre good right?
