Little bit o flex. I stretched my front lines to the max! Next project is make a little relocation bracket and bend my hard lines straight. So I don't pull a line.
Also have some plans cookin. First is install my SYE and add 1.5" to my lift. Then I will be selling my 31s and buying used 35s Eventually. And I got a hvlp sprayer and want to paint it a custom blue.

So I got some 2" coil spacers and Chevy blazer leafs a while back. Finally got them installed yesterday and today. Looks to be about 6" in the rear and 5" front. I now have 10" from tire to fender. Also did a stainless steel rear line from rubicon express. Tomorrows plan is bleed the brakes. Then I wanna do my SYE! Here's some pics. Also there's a pic of my short add a leaf I found cracked in half. So that's why my jeep leaned a quarter inch on the passenger side...

Lift done. Pulled transfer case today. Going to swap in a matching 231 so I can run my rugged ridge sye instead of hack n tap. Once that's done I will re align the steering. Then I wanna pull off the rear doors and go doorless for a while.
