What are those
Actually I meant DJM offset end links. They move the swaybar towards the passenger side about an inch so it clears the panhard bar mount. Look under it with the suspension loaded, maybe drive it up on ramps so you can get under it. Also check if you need the free travel mod while you’re under there, if your bumpstop brackets are hitting the frame when you go over bumps.

Or you hit a big ass dip or bump.
If they hit at all you need to do the free travel mod, period. Those bump stops should never hit, unlike the front jounce stops which are supposed to make contact. When the rears hit it’s not good at all. So like I said, unless you’re jumping it they should never hit and if they do, start cutting those beeches off.

So turns out the truck was bottoming out, the stop mount brackets were hitting the axle. Installed the bump stops for now, I guess it time to cut shit up
When cutting the driver side bracket off, stick a piece of sheet metal or 1/2” plywood alongside the fuel tank to keep from damaging it. I used an angle grinder with a cutoff wheel and a sawzall. Buy plenty of metal cutting blades in different lengths. It’s really not that hard. With those bump stops in there it’s gonna be hitting all the time now so better do it pretty soon.

Hey @Tonyrodz are you running anything else in the front. I know I have to do an alignment for the front, but did you use or upgrade anything in the front suspension.
I'm just running lowering keys with the Crown Suspension kit. I just had my ucas done. It was easier then replacing just bjs or bushings. Went with Moog.

Had my interior carpets cleaned for the second time in 15 years. There are still about 4-5 spots that didn't come out, but overall it looks great!

So, I couldn't leave well enough alone and I picked up some Chemical Guys Lightning Fast Carpet and Upholstery Stain Extractor to try to work out some of the spots that were left after the car wash guys steam cleaned the interior. So far it's lifted every spot I've used it on! I'm super impressed with this product and wanted to share my success with y'all in case anyone was looking for a good spot cleaner.
