I am new to coil suspensions. I put a teraflex lcg on a tj and now on steep inclines the front wants to raise up on me. I have seen people put the small winches to pull down the down, but of course with a high steer 44, I don't have the room. Any one have some creative fixes?? Can I run a simple line from my bumper to a tab on the axle?? The problem I see with this is it will bind on the tie rod. Any help, would be great.

You could weld in a small cross member with removable bolt flange on each side and run a center limiting strap down to the axle. This will elimnate the decompressing of the springs but being centered on the axle will still allow it to flex side to side without compromising the articulation;)

You could also weld a little tab in the center of the axle, then use a limiting strap diagonally to your passenger side engine mount. It's not nearly as elegant as other solutions, but it sure is easy. :) Just leave 3" or so for droop.
