Default New guy from central IL

Well I finally bought my first Jeep today. I got broke in right and experienced the Death Wobble twice while driving it home ( I was warned about it from the previous owner). I probably paid too much for it but I already love her anyway. Now I just have a bunch of work to do to get her trailworthy.

If anyone has an idea of the lift height I would appreciate it. The tires are 33's if that helps.

Now I need to start my list of questions.

Welcome from Deep South Texas. Glad you found us.
At least 5" of lift and might be more.

Right on! I was born in Peoria. My dad went to school in a one-room school house in Decatur for awhile before his family moved to Eureka. I also have family in Streator and Bloomington.
