Hi guys!
Just finished my installation, in the driveway (105 degrees Heat index).
Replaced the boomerang, lower control arms and shocks. Fun stuff. Did I mention I had no help? But the outcome was fantastic! The lower arm bushings were toast. So was the ball joint in the boomerang.Old shocks were surprisingly firm still. Trying to get a better than new car ride.
So, I am next going to tackle the front suspension and then get the whole thing aligned. The parts are beefy. I like beefy. Any suggestions for front suspension parts that may add greater stability?
Also this 2004 has a slight whine to the ******. It is also fussy in how you shift gears. It likes gentle not rough gear changes. This common?
Looking to keep this KJ a while longer. Has had top engine rebuilt, new radiator, new brakes all around, new rear suspension. clutch still feels strong.
Thanks for the feedback on the rear suspension guys.
