Here is a pic of my Black H2 rear end--the previous pics were from my Yellow H2 with a 6.5 lift.
This one has a 12" lift but the rear end is essentially the same--and I had a pic available.
The panhard bar was replaced with a tubular one for greater strength--this I made since it does not come with the kit.
The adjustable panhard bar stabilzer bar does come with the kit. It is adjusted so that the rear end can be aligned. Then, once it is right, the drop down bracket has a second bolt hole---in the pic it is a blue dot in the chrome drop down bracket---a bolt is put into this for stability. That bolt, along with the stabilzer bracket makes the rear end track true, even with 12" of lift and another 3" of lift bec. of the tires.
On this kit, the sway bar links are not adjustable. I am replacing these with adjustable ones since I want the sway bar to be lowered slightly. These current links would have been fine except I entended the swat bar about two inches back from their rear mounts so that it did not hit the larger rear dif cover I installed.
The higher you go, the more these little details matter.
NOTE: The small tires are on the H2 for the front and rear end alignment--rear first obviously. The big boys do not fit the alignment machines.
I have the same details on my 6.5 lift, except with adjustable sway bar links, just no pic available right now.
