Oh and I just measured my jack clearances. 9.5" in rear and 8.5 in front" when up.
The hydro lines are zip tied in several spots and are very solid. I might need to put a few more zip ties on the plunger sensor wires (that tells the system the jack are in full retracted position). No weight on my cylinder lines. I might relocate later but everything is up high and secured well.

I thought if I need to drop the cylinders for any reason I can do so without disconnecting the hydro lines.

Wow .... 9.5 and 8.5 sound high to me. That means you only get 3.5 R and 4.5 F of lift (Cylinders @ full extention is 13 inches).

I measued and im getting 4.5 R and 5.5 F of lift according to my ruler at the bottom of the body work. I didnt want to go any higher but I might drop the rear one inch at a later date. I wanted to make sure I dont drag anything at the current height.
