At the shop again
Project Scarlett: taking my time and doing it right the first time-forumrunner_20130306_200313.jpg

got some cut off disks for my grinder in preparation for trimming. I think ill pull my rear flares tomorrow.

Im gonna pull the lift off of my other jeep and toss it on scarlett with some soft 8s I picked up and some 31s im gonna call about tomorrow. The lifts a 3" rc aal kit. I wwnted to avoid aal but I want to be lifted for rides of march in a couple weeks. The tires falken wildpeak a/t's about 8 months old.

I know I was dead set on the 1.5" lift but oolas taking to long to sell.

Interesting... Mine were all the same except for the two 8mm or 7mm I can't remember bolts on the very bottom of the rear flares...

And it's normal for them to break.. I just got lucky with mine seriously. Lol
