Well like a lot of other guys on here I already started building but didnt start a build page until now. Got the Jeep back in October and had a buddy of mine who had a RC 4.5" AAL system that he wanted to get rid of. Litteraly didn't want a dime for it except for me to just take it off of his hands, so of course I couldn't pass that up!!
Now I wouldn't have gone the AAL route if I were actually paying money. I knew it was going to ride really rough, but nothing I havn't experienced with previous trucks of mine. SO heres how it sits right after I put the lift on and with some Wrangler wheels on her.........and then I went the soft 8 route too....

I started to notice some clunking and popping up front so I did some investigating and saw that the bushings on the shocks were pretty much gone. So a call to RC was in order, since the bushings were shot I figured I should go ahead and upgrade from the POS hydros to their nitro shocks. Also ordered two sets of BPE's to fix the clunking and swapped the stock steering stablizer for the big bore unit they offer as well as a set of quick disco's!!

Thanks! I get a lot of compliments around town about how clean it is. Just had to replace the radiator about 2 weeks ago, stock one finally bit the dust. Figured i should upgrade while i had the the excuse to so I called Iron Rock Offroad and ordered one of their all aluminum radiators and I couldn't be happier, super fast shipping and great customer service plus it keeps the temp down below 200 degrees 95% of the time!!

State Trooper said IF I would have been wearing my seatbelt that I wouldn't be here right now, crazy thought.
