On your bumper, did you make a brace for the inside of the frame rail? And if so, are you still using a steering box spacer?

why did you choose to go to that side of the engine? doesn't look like you have ABS in the way of the drivers side.

Well, I like that the passenger side is covered for a good distance so it stays a little more dry. And I think the passenger side has a little more room to clear my filter.

But if I didn't have to get rid of my airbox I probably would have used the driver side instead

well, im only stretched about 1" right now, and thats enough to slam the 35's into it. and sometimes its enough to stop the jeeps forward movement.

also, when i 3 link it i will be stretching the front a little bit more. so im just trying to save myself the future headache
