cool.. imma look into that because ive been holding back on getting the lift due to the amount the people charge to install it... so i was wondering if it was something i could do.


also ive been thinking about this a lot... and what engine can i use for an engine swap. Just wondering about the options i got... to give my jeep some more power. :]
