Are you sure? I thought registration was until the 10th? The event is totally free to come to every day. You just have to pay the 22 if you want to enter your jeep the second day

Yeah apparently the deadline was yesterday and I found out like 2 hours ago that I was working Saturday night instead of the day. I'd like to do the boardwalk thing on Saturday

Not really hard at all. As long as you do it in the right order everything stays almost spot-on aligned. Proper tools are a must.

It's a hybrid lift kit. Mostly Rubicon Express. New JK shocks, beefy shackles in the rear. Should sit 3.5in in the front and 4 in the rear as far as I've calculated .

Just picked up 8 5.0 19lb mustang injectors for $15. They're in good shape, but unfortunately are single hole. Hopefully they're still better than mine

Had a set of heavy duty custom U bolts made at Amboy spring, and she's lifted...

Holy wheel gap! Don't worry... Picking up a set of 33's to replace these 30 inch bologna skins. Sitting 3.5 front about 4 in the rear..

Check these out! https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f10/h-...s-here-139959/

They're so sexy. I'm having a guy I know copy the design and maybe fab some up. They'll be much less than $600 and he's local. If you're interested, let me know

Idk yet. Haven't fully discussed it. He's on vacation so next week the design should be finalized. I think cut would make more sense but it shouldn't matter because these bolt to the existing fenders and would cover anything cut away

Btw, the guy I'm talking about is a guy named Vince. He owns Jeep Worx in Vineland and he's willing to take design ideas. I'll give updates when we have plans for the tube fenders
