Mounted my high lift base and my fire extinguisher today
At the shop again
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.
