Default Finally Got Some Altitude

Well finally got the 3" lift put on, here's some before and after:

Before:


After:



This is last night after I got everythng put on, had to haul my sister-in-laws Grand-am from Kingsport, TN to Coeburn, VA. No test drive or nothing, jacked her down hooked the tow dolly and off I went:



I know tires are small, there 235-70-16's. But these are hopefully goin on her tomorrow:


Some Cooper STT 265-75-16's, only got like 30% tread left but I gotta get those little tires off so she'll look right.

I think I like the Coopers better than the MT/R's, I just got one practically new 245-75-16 MT/R, gonna try and find 3 more if the 265's rub real bad. Maybe tomorrow I can get some real Jeep pics too, Ones with MUD and MAJOR Flex....
