Thanks guys

The specs:

Front end : 3" RC coils 1.75" spacers on top, RC 3" shocks, Pro Comp Fixed 4.5" LCA's, RC 2-6" Adj. Trackbar (special order), RC sway bar discos (they aint so quick)

Rear end : RC 3" AAL (Added to my stock leafs with only 4000 miles on em), RC 3" shocks, Rubicon Express 6* steel shims, New Ubolts, 2" lift shackles, Rear sway delete.

Along with the Skyjacker T-case drop.

So far been up to 50 MPH with no vibes but I do get them in reverse.

I love the tires and the 33's arnt as bad as I thought they would be.

Everything including tires and some of those parts being used came out to 1300 bucks, Not bad

haha nice.

So today I heard rattling so i pulled over and discovered that both rear shocks became unbolted on the upper mounts. I broke the drivers side bolts and had put in self tappers to hold it till friday but apperently that didnt work. And passenger side looks like one bolt just backed off maybe I didnt tighten it enough. Anyways I took off the shocks so they wouldnt get damaged. I'll just drive with no shocks for a day until friday where I can tap the holes and put in new bolts at school. No big deal.

thanks man. My favorite part is when it rains and I drive at slow speed the tires make big arcs of water and spray on the cars next to me. Plus it just looks sweet.

Really? I LOVE that chrome grille. I am picking one up next week as a matter of fact cause your Jeep it probably looks best with white though. I have dark blue

I have thought about it blacking it out many times. Also removing the black insert and throwin some boss heavy duty metal mesh in there. (not look hick but look nice) idk we'll see what happens when i start getting bored.

I have to trim these fenders im rubbin when i turn and hit a bump or go up a curb. Im thinking friday i will get these bad boys taken care of. Doin a run to mounds ORV on saturday so that should be fun. dont worry i will have a lot of pics this time.

Dont black your grill out. I'll trade you and you can paint mine black. I've been looking for a chrome one for a while.
