I don't really know why I even bought mine. I don't think that I have ever used them to get into my jeep. The passengers always do though.

Im sorry, but if RC is advertising this as 3.25" they are lying. Your Jeep may have gained 2" of lift from what the pics show.

I'm gonna have to agree. Just going by the pictures I would say its got no more there 2.5" of lift. Looks good, don't get me wrong. Just saying that the clearance between the wheel opening and tire should look bigger with 3.5" and 33s. My .

Have any before and after shots for the full effect?

Yes gentleman I know, Im slightly pissed about it. They should have no right to call it a 3.25" lift. Its a ****ing 2.5" lift with a "spacer". As soon as I have the money in my budget for a JKS 1.25" BL im going for it. This kit went in great but I wasnt happy with the end result.

And yes, I have some before and after shots I will post them up shortly.

You know you can get the Oh **** handles for Jeeps from Pepboys right? I got a set there for like 10 bucks. They look just like the $40 ones.

It does sit a little low. When it was being installed, we missed the part of the instructions where it says "do not remove the stock coil isolator". I just haven't gotten around to putting the isolators back in

$1650 for wheels and tires? seem pretty high for that small of a tire. It cost me $800 for km2's with similar wheels.

Most places right now 5 tires alone in that size are upto $1300..... I got 5 tires, 5 wheels mounted, balanced and shipped. They also come with new lugnuts and locknuts. That was all included in the $1650
