Just installed a 3" Enforcer kit and JKS DL flip this weekend. Everything went together well. I used the EVO spec King shocks, rides well.

Just an FYI, the JKS rear track bar relocation doesn't work with the 3" Enforcer kit, it fouls on the coil springs. I was tempted by the thought of not having to cut the stock bracket. So, hope this will save someone else the trouble.

I am drooling over the whole thing...JKUHR, Machete bead locks, King shocks. Looks great!:thumb:

OK so it's when the axle shifts under the added articulation. Thay makes sense. Again it was a stupid question but as I am very much new to coil spring setups this is not something I am used to dealing with as much. Before my jeeps were all Cj7s and leaf spring all they way around. Ty for the response [emoji106]

Also because of the rear track bar, when the coils compress, the axle moves to the left a little as it goes up. Just the way it works. If you had a 3 link or triangulated 4 link or something like that, then the axle stays centered during compression.

No problem. The track bar makes the axle shift one way or the other as the suspension flex. I didn't even know what a track bar was when I bought my Jeep. :crazyeyes:

Lol yeah I didn't realize what all went into these things just to lift one until I got mine and joined here. Will say while you may be able to get more articulation over a leaf spring set up there's damn sure allot more things to deal with lol

Nice work. Don't forget to shift your evap skid over or your stock rear DS will contact it while flexing.

Thanks for the compliments and for the reminder! I've got a few things to get sorted this weekend, I'll add it to the list.

Ok, I am installing my 4" Enforcer, and I am having an issue installing Eva's drag link flip. The sway bar link on the drivers side is getting hung up on my tie rod at full left turn. It looks like I installed the bracket correctly. Any thoughts?

ImageUploadedByWAYALIFE1480176778.271322.jpg is this what you're talking about? Mine would get hung up on the tie rod and then was completely jammed on a full left-turn. ImageUploadedByWAYALIFE1480176887.127961.jpg I took a grinder to the bracket to knock the corner off of it. No more jamming.

Exactly, thanks. I thought maybe after an alignment it would go away.

Take a look in the write up section for a do-it yourself alignment write-up.

The only thing that you'll need to "align" after doing an enforcer lift is setting your pinion angle by adjusting your LCAs and centering your steering wheel.

That being said, I had the same bracket clearance issues...just hit it with a flap wheel and paint it afterwards.

Safe to assume you installed the passenger side raised trac-bar bracket? Just asking because if not it may be your axle needs to be recentered. My stock tie rod made slight contact but not as much as shown. It was alleviated when I switched to an aftermarket tie rod which bows outward (front) more.

Also, if you're not worried about losing a little turning radius, you could extend your steering stops just a little.

Yes, installed the 3 inch Enforcer lift along with the EVO drag-link flip kit. ImageUploadedByWAYALIFE1480214706.202350.jpg this set-up has been flawless for me, other than the slight hang-up on the DS sway bar bracket.
