Good looking jeep. Lift aren't hard but it is always nice to have help no matter what project you get into.

Trim the bumper? And as it sits now. Bout to pull out the bend from the wreck on the front, then a new driver fender, then from the pin stripe down it will get roll on bed liner, and then the new winch bumper will go on. And sonewhere in between there she will get rid of the turdy5 for the 8.25 sittin in the back. And a new clutch.

A 45* angle cut. Looks nice. Again, I will do it on my truck in the next couple nights when I have time and post pics in my build thread.

Did you narrow down the lift you are gonna get?

I did my bumper trim, and will post pics as soon as I get them resized.
