Pulled it into the garage next to my mustang, it's raining now and sposed to drop down to 15 with high winds with snow. Didn't feel like waking up to frozen doors/locks and frozen soft top windows.

USPS dropped off my LED lights 24hours ahead of schedule. $20 well spent.

Or they're a girl. Very rarely do girls in jeeps wave around here. We girls really can be snobs. Just glad to say I'm not one of them. I wave at almost every jeep I pass, unless it's a female driver. I don't even try anymore unless they wave first.
As for what I did to my TJ today, nothing. She's been mom's DD this week since her XJ needs fixed, and I have my YJ back. So at least she's not getting neglected and does get driven.

I know you guys are hating on my 3" BL but your talking to a 19 year old guy with less than 50 bucks left in my bank account who has no job right now, and going to college. I went to an auction and picked it up for 30 bucks. I have a 2" BB. Sorry that i can't aford a suspension lift. If anyone would like to donate a suspension lift to my "cause" I would be more than happy not to put the BL on. If not, don't complain. lol :P

The problem is a 3" body lift is negative progress. Unless you cut it down to something reasonable you've done no good for yourself. Plus, I would be weary of a $30 kit holding my tub to the frame....

I got it from an auction. Everything was going pretty cheap. Plus if I don't like the look of the 3" I can use a saw and make them 1" or 2".
