Now that the wheels and tires are on I had to get some new pics. I tightened up most of the bolts today as well. Im very happy that it stayed so level. When I bumpstop it I should be able to use all of the travel and just kiss the fender.

The front axle looks much wider than the rear. Is the rear a dually? IF so, are you going to add spacers to the rear? What are your plans for front fenders?

The axles are a matching pair beleive it or not and they are both around 71 wm-wm. Im using stock front fenders for now, they arent on so I can cut them. I may make the fenders come off quickly, I think its badass without any. I used the stock lca brackets on the front housing so I could run the stock cam bolts. Yes both of the front lowers are on upside down lol, the angle at the end of the arm fits perfect that way, good eyes

I just went outside to check my overall width. Its 82" I was shooting for less than 83" so it will fit thru the fenders on my trailer and fit where my last jeep would on the trails.

Front axles are typically wider than the rears. Helps with tracking and turning. My first set was about 4" wider front than the rear. Both stock Dodge 60's.

Hats off to you Kev. It has been a blast seeing this jeep go from nothing to something that will walk the trails like a sobeys parking lot. Can't wait to wheel with you and see just a little mud fly. :-)

It wont be going far. Still have horrible brakes, I have an appointment next week to have them bled. The abs module needs to be cycled then bleed the calipers, repeat, repeat, repeat. Sucks that it needs to be done this way on the new ones. So for anyone reading try not to lose much fluid because you will not be able to bleed your brakes on your own.
