Holy crap!

Man oh man, I sure couldn't use something like that on my CJ7!

My frame just would not take it, it would get torn apart really fast at
the front of the rear springs.

As it is, I have cracked my frame there because of axle droop with my
2.5" spring lift. It is a weak spot in CJ's with the boxed frames.

The axle droop puts a twist on the front of the rear springs and the
rear of the front springs. This twist eventually cracks the frame box
open.

My front frame is now broken from droop and I have never even removed my
anti sway bar.

My next big mod is going to have to be a new frame and I still wouldn't
use something like that on it....
