My 2018 2 Dr JK Rubicon Recon, was lifted with 35s. It was so much fun trying to keep it in my lane on the highway.😁

I read somewhere that is just residual oil from the manufacturing process. Get a can of brake cleaner and clean it off. Keep an eye on it after putting some more mileage on it to see if it really is a leak.

I wouldn't recommend doing it if you don't have much experience. I watched lots of videos and read everything I could find about in online before hand. I thought I had all of the tooling but didn't. Had to run to Harbor Freight and Auto Zone for a few tools. If I remember right, you'll need...

The ride is more plush than before. I'm not feeling all of those jittery bumps that I did before with the Bilsteins. I need more seat time though to really give a better review of them since I just took it for a quick ride after finishing the install today. I could immediately feel the...
