Thanks man. Once I pulled the bracket and hammered the bar back and forth a few times it slid right out. Now I need an 1 1/2 in wrench to break the torque on the lock night so I can extend it a little. It's currently installed, just a little short so the axle is still not centered.
4.5 inch lift with 32s
Does anyone know if i put a 4.5 inch lift with add a leafs can i fit 32x11.50r15 without any cutting or bending my fenders?
It is a rough country lift and i own a 1997 jeep cherokee

I have a 3 inch rustys lift and it vibrates bad when driving... Would it be worth the try to take the 1 inch transfer case drop off and see if that helps

That'll probably make it worse. It's likely from your driveshaft angle, and the fix is an SYE and a rear CV driveshaft

1) Pretty sure he's interested in the advice.
2) Stock LCAs are fine at 3" below 33s
3) Stock trackbar won't noticeably affect ride quality at that height. (Should be changed, but not for that reason.)

Lol I promise I will do it soon and not bother u... I just want to do it right and not mess up because I always mess up and end up wasting money... One last thing and next post on this form will be my jeep with all of the parts... 4 inch of backspacing on the wheels is good for 3 inches right

Lift doesn't affect that. There a relationship between wheel backspacing, wheel width, and tire width. This relationship is relative to your axle width. It affects your stance, stability, and turning radius.
3.5-4" is generally recommended, but may vary if you have specific needs.
