Adjustment, as in getting used to the change? I've been driving '70s and 80s full size trucks for almost a year. Even if it wasn't lifted, I'd still feel like I'd never driven a Wrangler before

It's around the bottom of my list, but I'd like to one day. These family style roll bars are pretty sturdy for what they are, and I have an idea for a spare tire mount that may help more.

Anyway, here's the Jeep fully cloaked

And I stopped by the Metalcloak tent today at the All Breeds Jeep Show in York. I pulled up on their new CTI (Corner Travel Index) trailer to test my flex.

My limits:
-Front DS contacts crossmember at full droop
-Rear rebound clips contact frame at full stuff
