Thanks guys! The rockers aren't prefect, but its a Jeep! I could have spent another 10-15hrs getting the rockers perfect, but shes no beauty queen to begin with so I figured it was good enough.

I'm getting the spacers and fender flares back on tonight, hopefully have new pix tomorrow. I hate that its getting so dark so early now....

Default Update! Wheel Spacers and fender flares

Got the 1.25" wheel spacers installed last week and put the stock fender flares back on. Prepped the drivers side for paint on Saturday, went to paint on Sunday and it started raining!

So I improvised and made a little shelter!



Wheel Spacers Installed:


Shelter!










She is painted now, however it was getting dark by the time I finished. I will take some pics later today. Also! I got my lift in today. 3" spacers for the coils and 2" shackles for the rear. Its a cheapo job right now. I'll get a real lift kit in the spring (rusty's offroad 3" w/spring pack). Cause believe me, those springs are hurting after 237k miles.

oh no!



So i got newer spring packs from a local junk yard, cleaned them up, painted them and put them on the jeep this weekend. It rides so much better than my worn 240k springs.

Top spring is before prep, bottom is after:
