I installed my lift, wheels, tires and partially painted it!! I did a ProComp 3" lift with 1.75" poly spacer. I used a 1.75" block (temporary) for the rear. ProComp Es3000 shocks. I used 16" Fuel Revolver wheels with 33's!! Can't wait to get into some mud!

Well I found a nice rear bumper with swing away tire carrier from Nates4x4. I'm planning on placing the order tomorrow.
Now I just need to get my hands on some Jerry cans

It's actually not too bad. The new seats sit probably 2 inches higher than the old bench seat. So even though the new seats sit a little bit farther forward, the extra height kind of makes up for it (your knees don't have to bend so far forward). I actually noticed it's easier to get in and out of now. Also, the front seats are as far backwards as they will go.

Default Fluid changes

I actually finished last night, but I was too tired to post. Chaned the transmission filter/screen and fluid, transfer case fluid and fluid in both axles.

Transmission fluid was not as bad as I was believing it would be, but it needed it. 198,000 miles and it is still strong and shifts very well. What more can I ask for?
