Yup, that should give her some weight on the front.

Remember Walt, we have 4cyls. They weigh less than 6cyls so lift springs for us in front do sit higher.

I say raise the rear if you can would look better. Given the side of the tires and you don't rub as much.

That and some Iron Man Andy adjustable shackles to give a true 2" if you still need some more.

Considering DBO fender armor and rear armor for the MJ. I've already got ballistic padding inside my doors. (MJ belonged to the military before I got it)

Might look into them for future plans
Those dbo rear armor for the mj are real spiffy designs
I'm glad the mj market is coming along nicely since the last couple years you couldn't find much aftermarket support

Fits great and fits tight. A hell of a lot better than plastic as well.

But yeah my comanche the oil comes out the cap and the whole engine is pretty much in oil, after I switch it out gotta degrease the engine
Oh haha... I was wondering where your sense of humor went on that one. Makes sense now.

I had heard of that for the CCV elbows, never thought of using it for the oil cap.

You just found the downside of the metal cap
