Yesterday moved it out of the driveway so the deliverers could drop off 39 boxes of hardwood flooring right into my garage. Then... I drove it back in. Got our first snow yesterday.

I put one inch spacers one and it is amazing how much different two inches feels (before anyone tries to, let me be the first, "That's what s/he said."). Seriously, if your Jeep is stock, I wouldn't consider anything bigger than one inch -- otherwise it'll look too squatty. All the best!
Thanks Tree Frog! That's what I'm doing then !!

Drove wet dark roads last night for the first time with the new fog lights. Was awesome, finally able to clearly see the road markings and the shoulders.

Was also kinda fun having my bf's daughter switching them on... then off... on... then off... because she was so amazed at the difference with and without them. lol

I dont know about him but mine were a pain when I took the original ones off. The nutserts on the back 3 bolts on the front flares just kept spinning. Channel locks fixed that though
