I'd guess you'll notice about a 1/2" difference.

I'm not sure what the ground to rocker measurement is. I have a basic RC 3" lift. I've always heard that RE sits higher than advertised.

You're going to have to be a little less vague here... What would you like to do?

You can purchase and ship a 20" LED light bar to my door. That'd be great. Thanks.

You could paint the header panel on your Jeep the same color as your Jeep.

Anything of these, just don't know which to get first.

Well, you can get a 2" lift, storage and a roof rack.

Or a rear bumper, storage and a roof rack

or a 2" lift, storage, and paint your header panel.

IMO, the exhaust is a waste unless yours leaks like hell.

Cleaning the K&N cone filter tomorrow, has anyone ever heard that oiling those types of intakes is bad for the manifold? Just curious to know peoples thoughts about oiling their filters...
