The tires didn't take all that much for balancing, especially compared to my dads YJ. Tires are pretty good though.
Arms needed to be lengthened to be pushed that far out.
Are you in police academy now?

As far as pushing the front arms out to the max. There was no thread there to do it,plus I moved the front axle forward 3.5 inches,making all new links,spring perches,shock mounts,and track bar. There's not much that wasn't touched up front,but it does handle a ton better.

Ok, so the front axle was pushed foward 3.5"? How hard was it to install the C-Rok steering box brace? I REALLY need to do that...bad. Tok, so have you driven this thing? What are your feelings on the rock krawler arms? I hate mine...But it flexs good.

Steering brace went fairly easy. Soak the steering box bolts well. The original spacer between the frame and the box is aluminum and the bolts seize into it. Other than that it wasn't a problem.
