Interesting.....mine's set up the other way around....Jeep workshop did mine while it was having a service..

I tossed up whether or not to turn it around like yours when I was fitting it. In the end it clears everything so I'll leave it as is. That might change when I fit a front ARB diff cover.

Finally installed a lift kit. Went with 2" OME kit from ARB with OME front lower control arms instead of the caster correction bolts. I was *this* close to getting the BP-51 all round as they are now available in the 2" kit length, but decided not to in the end as I dont have enough need for the adjustability vs the increased cost. So far its meeting the day to day requirements but it will get a big workout next weekend running up and down the Finke race track for a couple of days (not competing.. track official)

Took the suspension for a flex test this afternoon. Little bit of tyre rub on the guards at full stuff but otherwise fine.

I know many don't like the ARB kit but I've elected to get a kit where I have a manufacturer support nearby (I'm minimum @2000km from the nearest dedicated Jeep specialist)

One of my dislikes about the JK was how light the steering felt.

Thought about doing this, is there much involved? Would I be able to convert this set up somehow or do you need to buy specific brackets? Thanks...

It's really easy. There are no brackets to buy.

All you need is the Track Bar extension bolt to replace the original bolt (you use the original nut from it). I bought mine from SBR

You don't need the black Fox clamp I bought, just flip the tie rod bracket at the end of your dampener 180 degrees and your done.
