3" Body lift

Sway bar quick disconnets

Tools

Hacksaw, jack(Hi-Lift works great), standard screw driver, flexible socket, adjustable joint pliers, 7/8" and 1 3/4" sockets, Open end wrenches (1/4", 1 5/8"), and ratchet with socket extensions. NOTE: welding is required.

Please read all of instructions before you start!

Instructions

1. Loosen all bolts at body mounts.
2. Drill the 2 nylon pins on the middle of the steering shaft. Use some heavy duty lubricant on these places and soak extremely well. NOTE: if it still doesnt drop when you put the lift in, then get some vice grips and attach it to the lower part of the shaft and pound on the vice grips and keep soaking with the lubricant.
3. Disconnect the clutch pivot bracket, this is the bracket that is attached to the firewall below the hole that the linkage from the pedal to the clutch linkage goes. NOTE: this is for manual, I dont know what is involved in an automatic.
4. Take out the radiator and the fan shroud, you will have to lower the radiator by the amount of inches you are lifting your jeep. You do this by moving the holes up the amount you are lifting your jeep. NOTE: if you are raising your jeep 3 inches you may want to lower the radiator 1 or 2 inches, lower the fan shroud another 1 or 2 inches. Do what you think fits right. You need the fan in front of the radiator as much as possible though to have max amount of air being pulled through the radiator. Also, if you HAVE to, you can cut out the bottom of the fan shroud to get the fan to fit, MAKE SURE that the lower radiator tube will not get cut by the fan though. NOTE: IF YOU HAVE PETS AROUND, be very careful because the antifreeze in the radiator is extremely toxic and tastes like candy to them, so put the pets up and clean up very well.
5. Jack the left side of the jeep up about an inch or 2 higher than the heighth of the lift pucks. Look under the body very carefully and check to see if there is any wires or anything strectched. NOTE: I did not look at the exhaust mounting bracket and it broke the rubber in 2.
6. If everything checks out alright, put in the pucks on the left side. The skinny pucks go: one in the front, and 4 in the rear, the large ones go in the middle of the jeep. I had a total of 11 body mounts.
7. Then jack up the right side and check all wires. If everything checks out alright, put in the pucks and lower the body. NOTE: Do not tighten body mount bolts yet, do this at the very end.
8. Put the radiator and fan shroud back in and make sure everything lines up right.
9. Take the clutch linkage, the part that goes from the clutch pedal, through the firewall. And cut it in 2 on the longest straight part on it(this should be towards the top of it). Now weld the 3" inch metal rod onto the top part of the linkage, and then the bottom. NOTE: if you don't know how to weld, you may be able to buy an extended linkage from a store, if not, get a pro to weld it for you.
10. Combine the new clutch pivot bracket and the old one by placing the new one on the 2 bolts on the body(top hole on top bolt and middle hole on bottom bolt). Then place the stock bracket on the new bracket(top hole on bottom bolt). Take the bolt and nut that came in the kit and bolt the bottom of the old and new bracket together. NOTE: leave all these nuts loose, you will need to adjust this when you put in the linkage to get everythign right.
11. Take the new, longer clutch linkage and put it back in and see if it fits right. Don't worry if it doesn't. You may need to lower the hole through the firewall a little.
12. Tighten everything down on the jeep that you have messed with and make sure you get the clutch linkage back together correctly. Double check all the lines and wires and make sure that noting is strectched.
13. Check your shifter and your transfercase shifter and see if it hits the hole through the tub anywhere and if it does, make the hole a little bigger, you want at least an inch on each side.

That should be it, if you have any questions or need any help, feel free to e-mail me.

These sway bars cost me a total of 12 dollars. Not including the drill bits. I do not remmeber the exact size drill bits or pins i used but they are common sense things(meaning, dont use a small pin so it breaks and dont use to large of one that weakens what you drilled the holes in.

Parts

Tubing that fits snug over the sway bar links, 4 hitch pins or cotter pins, whatever you prefer, spare oil, high quality drill bit.

ToolsInstruction

Hack saw, drill (drill press works best).

Instruction

1. You need to take off the sway bar links (the part of the sway bar on both sides that is vertical). You do this by undoing the 2 bolts on each side and then prying very hard with a big ass pole (i used a bench press bar).
2. Cut the pieces in 2. NOTE: I did not cut them equally in 2, i made that part that goes on the bottom a little bit smaller than the one on top so that when i undo the sway bar, the part on the bottom hangs as little as possible.
3. Drill a hole in each piece that will go perpindicular to the jeep(parrallel to the axle).
4. Cut the tubing the length of the part of the link that is skinny(do not include the round parts that the bolts go through).
5. Drill holes through the tubing that line up with the holes in the links.
6. Put it all back together and use the pins to hold the links together.
7. After it is connected, drive around going over things do see if it works and it doesnt break.
