I found a review on them on another forum and everyone talked good about them. I think that is what I am going to go with

Well I got a shipment toady.
I got my Gen II quick disconnects, lift coils and SYE.
Ordering driveshaft soon. I ordered one from a junkyard in New York and they sent me one with a rzeppa joint. They gave me the run around and I had to file a claim with Paypal.
If anyone is thinking of doing service with "The LaBarron Brothers" please stay away. Their Ebay name is "woodhull" or something along those lines.
I will be ordering shackles, shocks, control arms, brake lines, upgraded steering drag link and a steering stabilizer by tomorrow.

Not much else done this week. I did draw up and burn out my track bar mount then had it bent.
Made from 1/4" material
Paypal is screwing me with this 21 day hold on funds when selling through ebay so I cam still waiting to order the rest of my parts.

Had to do a little trimming on the front just to hold me over until I add the 2" on to my lift. I have everything ordered but shackles.Trying to decide id I want to build my own shackle relocation boxes or buy some.

Yep I really want to keep my stock fender flares. I'm gonna see what kind of clearance I have once I add the 2". If I don't keep my flares I don't want whatever I do to look like a hack job so i don't really know what my options are

Brake lines, front and rear shocks, and drive shaft for the SYE came in yesterday. Control arms should show up tomorrow. Putting it all together Friday night and Saturday.
Also are there any other companies that sell fender flares similar to bushwacker but aren't so expensive? And are they all the same width? I would like some the same width as the stock ones

Hack it. If you plan on taking her out then you might as well get over it. I wanted to keep mine mint but this weekend its going to go under the knife...well angle grinder. I think im either going to do a custom job and hack up some TJ flares to use, or keep it flareless till I can afford some flatties..which I really want.
