CONGRATS

Re: Giddy with excitement.....

that will be a nice setup for your jeep

Re: Giddy with excitement.....

yeah I've been waiting on this set up even before I got this LJ. I had the RESF 3.5 on my other one and was happy with it, but this deff seems more solid.

Re: Giddy with excitement.....

congrats on the new build items. should be fun.

I know this system is pretty popular, but while bored today at work, I started to get worried about the front CA's staying stock (for a couple months). Will this be ok?

Of course - Johnny Joints arms would feel more precise, flex better, and
stand up to off road abuse (flexing) a lot better, but if your stock arms
are in good shape you'll be fine.

I've found that disconnecting the front sway bar and flexing the axle with the
stock arms was hard on the stock rubber bushings, but a little bit of that is fine.

Worst case, you'll start to notice your front end getting a little sloppy and it will
motivate you to replace the front components that much faster!

nice, I love getting new stuff!...but what's the quick question?

It should be ok. The worse case scenario is that you might have a pinion angle anjustment that could be difficult to do without the front uppers. Just be aware of the pinion angle and of course any drivability/alignment issues that might possibly crop up and do your best to take care of them until you can get the other arms. But these would be issues anytime you mess with anything suspension related, so its all good and part of the normal process.
