Super excited to get this lift on!!!!

Aiming to be done mid tuesday then off to an alignment and wheel balancing(pulled of the wheel weights to dip) then tweak and test out the suspension then I've got the week end off to go out to rides of march with naxja at hidden falls adventure park!!!!!

Got the lift off of the other xj today found out the shocks are TOAST they have 0 rebound when compressed...so they'll get replaced soon.

Also got the ravines mounted today so I could put the stockers on as rollers and get the other wheels sold.

Front fenders are cut

Ima mount the rear tires from the old xj on the front of scarlett..right now I've got 8 31 bfg all terrains 4 of are wore from baaad toe in and the other 4 were on the rear..with a little rearanging ill have one good set of 31s lol I drove around with the 31s for a bit parts running and they're a lot louder than my 4 different street tires. Power still seems good tho rides rougher

I've got new center pins and u-bolts ready to go and got the rest of my exaust parts in. I'm not really happy with the crinkled bends in the walker down pipe but its better than that crushed stock pipe

Got my 32 tooth speedo gear in as well
