Me! and almost 100% street use...course a tweaked 5.9 on 35" with my wife racing vipers light to light is probably a tad hard on the rear mounts :shock:Originally Posted by RufftyTuffty

there is a front axle from a ZJ sitting on the floor of a local shop. The entire drivers side bracket assembly--spring pad and all--ripped off the axle. Why would they not use the factory UCA mounts that are cast into the housing? Is that the old design or the new? or both?
Yeah, RK sucks. It seemed like they were trying to make good on things but it doesn't look like they have really improved much.

they get a A for effort but rhe whole design sucks ass. using the sopck controll arm brakets and still the RK rod ends. there crap i'v herd nothign but shit about them a few guys blowing that shit on the street. and the 4 link rear end with the upper arms the brakets dont' even leave the rear reod ends in the direction of the arms. there already flex'ed at rest. anyways drun kpost i'm hammered.
Clayton's kit uses the stock LCA brackets as well. However, he offers an axle bracket kit if you are swapping kits. Someone point out a kit to me that includes new LCA axle brackets for someone keeping a stock axle. Who gives a fuck if they use the stock brackets. What bolt on lift kit doesn't??? If the concern is that big, just weld a piece of plate between the stock brackets or some triangular gussets to the axle to reinforce it.
I know this is an old post, but i just saw it.
I'm pretty sure Cody saw this at the local shop i took my axle too.....This is my axle!! yeah, that was a great design....wish I had pics. Broke on the freeway doin 80+ MPH....SCARY.....It's much better now though.....there is a front axle from a ZJ sitting on the floor of a local shop.
