what breaks first?

Hey eveyone. I just lifted my wagoneer 6in with the Rusty's Offroad kit and have extended the swaybar disconnects as well. It currently has 30x9.5x15's on it planning for 34's on a 16 in rim.

What can I expect to be the weak link?

thanks

The front axle shafts and u-joints if you have a heavy foot and sometimes if you don't when steering and up against a boulder, ledge or other tight spot.

What are you going to be using it for? If its a DD then you shouldn't have too many issues. If it will be a trail/rock crawler then you power steering pump will get a big work out. I went thru a couple in 5 years with my 34" LTB's.

the bank....


you will chew up the front corners of the fenders all the way around when wheeling. I took a little 4" grinder to the front edges. Helps a lot and you can't really tell. Everything else depends on how you drive.
