  • Just got some Rock Krawer X-Factor mid control arms for our Jeep JK Big Sauce. The Front arms were set to recommended length by instructions but the rear was set to the longer "flat fender" length

    Great video. I was recently presented nearly the same identical challenges with my JK, and they are currently being addressed. Also going with Rock Krawler high clearance front Lower control arms to fix the low caster issues. Mine was also at about 1, when it should be closer to 5.

    Very nice. I like the rockkrawler x factor. The arms are joints are great. So much flex, it's crazy.

    Love my X-factor lift as well. It's not really a stretch though. All fully adjustable arms on the market allow for that inch "stretch" in the rear.

    You have way to much thread exposed on your rear upper and lower arms! RK says no more than 3/4”

    How did the ride change ? Have you noticed anything different ?

    Question for you...I've been running the 3.5 X-Factor for over 7 years. I've always kept an eye on my front brake lines because they rest on the LCA's. I noticed that you have small brackets that hold the line up off of the LCA. Did those come with your kit?

    Sweet rig buddy. How much length over stock did you end up with on those upper rears?

  • @anthonynespoli117
    @anthonynespoli117 6 років тому

    I noticed you put your bends on your front lower control arms facing to the top. Does your tire hit them at full turn. I put mine facing inside.

  • @ricardochavez7259
    @ricardochavez7259 3 роки тому

    Did you have .75 coil spring spacers in the rear or just the correction wedges?

    I just bought a RK 2.5” X factor mid arm suspension for a jku but mine is a 2door. I contacted RK about it and they said that the only difference was it would raise it up 1” higher than the 4 door. I know that you have got rid of big sauce now but I was wondering if you ever got a drive shaft for it and did you get both front and rear? Any hints or tips that you can give on doing the lift? I have got to buy the necessary tools to install it . You wouldn’t want to make a little money doing mine would you?

    • @jamesmoore1124

      I’m in Cullman. I had a local shop install for $550 front is really loose and rear when riding over speed bumps are feeling like it bottom out. I don’t know anything about lifts so I gotta get someone that’s in the know to see if the shop did it correctly. The shop sells rough country and are mainly a moto cross and vehicle garage.They lock tite the jam nuts and marked them with paint markers for visual movement inspection. They had another tire shop do the alinement so it might’ve been them that moved something and got the rear end to do the bottom out feel. I also have bilstien 5100 shocks that were installed with the kit. My rubicon has about 57k mileage. I don’t have a rear seat or rear tire and it’s a automatic transmission.Thanks again.

    Never ever ever torque the control arms while it's up in the air.......need to torque with the wheels and tires on and the jeep on the ground......you'll bind up the bushings the way you did it.
