    "Anyway, adding polish to a turd is not high on my gotta do list... And cue tom4bren!"

    I have no response to that.

    I don't have any experience with tie rod problems so I won't chime in on that either. I have noticed that the joints on our center link appear notorious for being impossible to remove without damage. Sounds like the shop experience similar issues.

    Put a smiley after you say that Bub.

    Here is what my order email said. NOT very helpful. I emailed Indy4x to find out.

    Plus my order was made 2 years ago. The different size were put into the catalog last year.

    installed

    I have not received a response yet from my e-mail to Independent4x. Luckily, they were installed on Friday without any issue. I also have the "Long" installed.

    I feel like I went from chopsticks to a broom handle. Those tie rods are HUGE!

    Rear Bump Stops

    Not to TJ here, but this post seemed like the place. I want to order the OME 3 inch springs and bump stops from I4X but I can't find the rear bump stops on their website. Do they have them on the web? Do they carry them at all? Will I need to order them from someone else?
    Will the springs give 3 inches of lift in the back or should I get spacers too? I don't want to lift the back more than I will be able to in the front with just torsion bars and no diff-drop. I also don't want to it to ride on the front stops.
    Also, should I order the low pro front stops, or just sawzall mine in half?

    I did I did, I promise. I have a shortcut saved directly to the "lift wiki" page for easy use. I spent 2 weeks lurking, searching, and learning before I piped up with this question. But when I go to the I4X site, I can't find the bump stops, even if I search for them by part number. That's why I'm asking if they still carry them, and if not, where else might I get them. I have read tons of lifting posts on here, believe me.
