rubicon express cherokee install question

[sibeta]

Hey has anybody installed the Rubicon 4.5" lift on their cherokee recently? I am have having problems with the upper link on the passenger side where it connects to the bracket on the diff. There is a ton of space in between the bushing that is pressed in on the bracket and the new arm, it seems like it is way too much to just suck it down. Am i missing a bushing or something that needs to be there? or just suck the S.O.B down? The kit didnt include anything. Any idears? Trying to finish it up tonight.

Recently? Like maybe 3 years ago. My knowledge may not apply. I assume you are talking about the 'Y' piece being to wide for the rubber bushing. I'd put the bolt in and suck it down. My RE uppers were similar.

That is what i thought, there was just 1/2 inch or more of space, but i will suck it down, thanks

We put the RE 4.5" kit on my wife XJ a few months ago. I don't remember that much of a space in the bracket, just suck it down I sayl
