My Lifted 98' Limited 3.5" Super Flex Installed Moab Wheels *PICS*

Well as some of you know, I just recently installed a Rubicon Express 3.5" Super Flex Lift with MonoTube Shocks on my Black 1998 Jeep Cherokee Limited. Plus a lot of other things. So here it is, and (what i think is) a full list of whats been done since I have purchased the Jeep.

Either $300 or $400 (slipped my mind which one) for 5 of them with tires . The Discoverer's have almost full tread, and the spare had 0 miles and an MT/R. Sold the MT/R to help pay for the lift.

It needs an SYE, so right now it vibes a little bit around 25mph. The Gibson Exhaust never fit right to begin with (doesnt clear the rear bumper) so its rattleing around more than ever after the lift. Just need to "help it into place."

The light bar was made by a seller on eBay that just started a company fabbing XJ parts. I cant think of the name off the top of my head but i'm sure my dad probably remembers. It looks real good, i plan on putting two driving lights there.

Thanks for All the Comments So far!

The current pictures at the top after the lift show the 245/75/16 discoverer ATRs. I mis-spoke up top. They are equivallent to 30.5" according to http://www.powerdog.com/tiresize.cgi
