So here's a new one. To me at least. When compressed, My front driveshaft has been coming in contact with my upper control arm and chewing away the thin stock arm. I at about 5-6" lift with stock arms and drop brackets. I plan on building a 3-link eventually and running my upper on the passenger side.

That ain't right. There is something way ****ed up in your front end if that is happening.

Brown box showed up on my door step with my fat bobs short arms. Picking up new coils and shocks this weekend. Front end will finally be done! (Yes!) Might not install tho, maybe wait for my new jeep, which hopefully is alot cleaner underneath.
