Then the madness Begun, I got the itch for a lift and some tires, I browsed around for about a month of what my options were, Originally I was just going to go with a 2" coil spacer referred to as a budget boost, which is designed to boost it up enough for some bigger tires... I then realized I wanted to go bigger So I purchased this
Iron Rock 4" Kit I then Purchased a 285/75/16 Kuhmo All Terrain Tire from Discount Tire ![]() I only have some lift install pics as it was cold and It took about 6 hours to complete, god that was a messy job, someone took "chassis lube to heart and went all out" ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The New Born Jeep ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

When I bought the jeep Its only problem was a door lock actuator was bad in the driver door, so it was not able to lock, I replaced it..PITA....
I also Purchased a New key fob.. $110.00 CRAZY I was looking at some new Ideas and I came across this " painting cladding" I figured why not , its grey and ugly lets make it look good and I was tired of wasting money on dressing after dressing trying to spruce it up, So we painted it My "new bumper": for comparison of color change ![]() Rear bumper "unpainted" ![]() ![]() Painted Front Bumper ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Haha, to each his own! I was hesitant on the style, but the price was right. I was getting pulled over regularly for my broken stock light. Now that they are on I think they are great.
They seem to look darker on my jeep than yours, did you do the tinting yourself after those pics? ![]() ![]()
