    use a limiting strap. JKS makes a good one

    If you end up changing the shocks you can get a set sized up properly to prevent that. Might want to recommend that to Marlin actually since he has those 7100s built.

    hahahah I vote for getting limiting straps and let them take the abuse of stopping the axle from dropping. But like matt said let JBA know, a solution should ship with the kit.

    Well the lift still has a inch to gain so that might help a little. Theres usually a few spots where a tire will come off the ground but didnt happen today

    I think you'll find the normal spots that were hard or scary no big deal now. You'll have to pick harder lines now I noticed that when I wheeled the XJ picking the same lines I did with my XK was not cutting it and I had to adjust in my mind what was passable now.
