It gets angled up some so the clearance is a little higher than the axle tube. The clearance from my diff is probably 3/4" but that wa before i had a pro adjust it. I stuck with the regular hardware: no drilling. Complete bolt on.

Lol, Im around 4.5 so that works for me. I'd like to see how much clearance there is for a bigger diff cover. How is aligning it?

For me, difficult. I had to take the drag link apart several times because both sides had to be all the way in. If you just adjust one side its super easy.

You can move the bars up and down slightly by loosening the clips that hold them in place. Oliver did that for me. Ill take a picture later. It only gets close at full turns.

Did you do the drag link first or last?

Install doesn't look too bad. Are you running a stabilizer?

Yes. It gets really close to hitting one of the bars though. I think tie rod. But again. I think thatll change with a higher lift.

Not sure when the IRO sales are either. They do have a new customer discount you can take advantage of. I'm running the ORO UTurn setup. Figured I'd be different.

My discount was $50 and free shipping and no sales tax. Got the notice in an email right when i was going to buy it. Perfect timing.
