Just put the Steering Stabilizer in.. Made a noticeable difference from the old stock one, and its much beefier and accommodates the 10.5" wide tires much better on the pavement. Can't find anywhere nearby that sells a freakin' open center cap for the LED 3rd Brake light so I pulled off the extra one from the back and will cut and make it work next to put on later once I finish some more RL work.

Extreme Metal Products.. I think I paid the same 50$ that it is listed as now on the site but it was a few years ago.

Extreme Metal Products, LLC

Also bought their steering skid at the same time so it shipped all together. Never had an issue with either product, just wish they made more stuff for our Jeeps!

The step by step instructions can be found here:

http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f9/gauge-cluster-led-install-752937/

The LED you need to get is listed. I ordered the LEDS through v-leds.com and got them really fast with the normal shipping. The install is very quick. All you need is a phillips head screwdriver and a 1/4" deep socket and rachet for the screws on top of the dash. I went that way as it was really easy to get them out due to the limited space with the windshield. If you have any questions, just holler.

Mounted my 35" MTZ's with pro-comp soft 8's that got dropped off by fed-ex today.
Here is a side veiw

Front fender clearence

Rear fender clearence

Front view

So far Im very happy with the stance I have. If it were not for JF I would have threw a 6" SA lift and rode like a horse and buggie.

We have the same lift, so im assuming you cleared these by just trimming the flares?
