Lift Completed... PICS

Here we go guys!

Before



After



The only problem is, when I dropped my tires off to be mounted, I forgot like a ******* to tell them to do white letters in. They were really nice and tried to call me at work to see what I wanted but I was in a three hour meeting... oh well....

Wow looks pretty snazzy. How tall is the lift? and what size tires are those? you need a full size spare too.

Thanks guys! Im glad you like it! Im loving it, I go downstairs just to look at it every now and then. The lift is 3" rancho coils, 265/70/16s for the tires, 31s, and ive still got the front and rear JKS adj trackbar to install. Im going to wait for my shocks to blow out before I get new ones. or at least until ive got a little more saved up. the tires took a huge chunk of change.

Ive got a full sized spare sitting in the basement, the only problem is, I let my wife talk me into buying only 4 cragers... so i have to wait for that last one to show up before i can have it mounted. Even so, i will have to put that spare in my cargo area because I can just barely make it into the garage with only the rack.

I still have a little rubbing, Ive got to cut that plastic back a little. Man, things that i thought that i would never do..

Thanks guys!

Harry

haha yeah I never thought about cutting the bumpers... but here I am! with the front hacked alot and a completely different rear... I only have 31's now but I hacked soooo much I can fit 33's. I carried a full spare on the roof and barely cleard the garage... but once I got the swing out rear.. wow I love it, freed up the roofrack, freed up the cargo area and it looks alot more agressive and smart to have it on the back. Remember, It's a Jeep, it's never done! How are you liking the surco rack? they hold a ton of stuff.. great for camping.

With that color, the white letters-out looks great.

Looks awesome.

its good that your putting the spare in your cargo area because having it on the roof will only make your jeep get worse gas mileage

i went to get the jeep aligned today and they couldnt do it. They said because the way the tires over lap on the rims... they didnt want to scratch the rims up. Oh well... they said if i had my old tires i could bring them back and they would put those old ones on for alignment, and then put the new ones back on... haha

at least they were nice enough not to ruin my rims.

Thanks for all the compliments guys!

Harry
