Ohh at first I freaked thinking was the wiring lol...was glad it wasn't, then we thought might be the neutral lock switch finally went out as it is going out...


Im going with the RC series II 3" for now...the plan is to go 3" then in 6 months or so get a 2nd XJ an if want higher either transfer the 3" to the new one an go higher on this one or higher on the other an leave this 3"...since this is a DD don't want to go to high or have to worry about a Tcase drop etc...so 3" works...though i saw a 4.5 the other day an liked the height of it...ohh decisions decisions lol

getting excited started spraying all the bolts etc down in prep for the lift...will be all done an ready for annual memorial weekend camp trip woohoo!!

The uppers have balljoints on one side. So there's only one side the bushings can go on...
