Got my Trail Rated badges put on.

 

Here's everything that we took off the Jeep. It's all for sale too.

 

And here are pics of my Jeep after installing the 3.5 inch lift from Rusty's off road. I have new coils, leaf springs, shocks, upper and lower control arms, track bar, and steering stabilizer.

Here's some driveway flex pics.

 

Also put on a euro XJ sticker and my Quadratec sticker.

 

Next step will be installing my JKS sway bar discos and getting extended, new bumpstops for the front and rear. Also I'll be installing those hood vents soon...

 

My JKS sway bar discos, just waiting to be installed...

 

Future plans:
TC and gas tank skid plates
4.10 gears
KC lights on the front bumper
K&N air intake

I want to make this Jeep a really badass daily driver. I currently don't plan on lifting it any higher, I just want everything to be protected, geared right, and above stock. I'm super happy with what I've done to it so far. Let me know what you guys think!

 

You should take off those side steps, they don't help and just rust out. Also, if you plan on getting it muddy or going through water keep the stock box on, cone filter intakes aren't good for offroading unless you just go through rocks.

 

Good call on the air filter. I probably will see a lot of water and mud.

 

I kinda like the side steps though. Just a personal preference.

 

I think some JCR sliders with side steps would be a much better fit. Would tie into the body better, higher, and offer superior protection.

 

True. I can't disagree with that. I just need to start saving more money, lol.

 

I do also eventually want to get some nice front and rear rock crawler style bumpers, and a swing away tire carrier, but that will be further down the road when I can afford them.

 

4.10 gears and skid plates first though
