This lift has been a long, time consuming and money consuming process but its finally over...for now. I had the help of my local jeep club to put it on. Now all i need is an adjustable track bar and some tires. I just wanted to show off what it came from to what it is now.

Looks good, Nothing beats yanking out those worn out, sagging front & rear springs and putting in a new lift. A 3" lift ends up looking like a 5 to 6" lift when all is said & done. How much of a lift did you put on? Next step looks like Rims & Tires.....

Keep up the good work!

Yea its great to see it without its exhausted springs. I mixed and matched my lift setup. the front is at 3.5 and the rear is at 4. My buddy has 31s for sale so ill just put them on these rims and when $$ allows me ill pick up some soft 8's
