Off Road Innov. did it in about 2.5-3 hours

Off Road Innovations did good clean work and all good guys. I think I'm gonna go back there from now on if I need work eventho it's a bit of a hike for me
Where is this place located?

Default Shootout from Centreville, VA

Just found this tread and I have been on JK-forum for over a year! I see tons of JK rigs on 28 and around town, so I am hoping they are some of you folks from JK-Forum.

My jeep is beginning to grow up starting this week. Just installed a ARB Deluxe Bull Bar front bumper and have the 2.5" Teraflex coil lift coming in the mail this week... for which I will be installing as soon as I get it, and I am going with 16x8" ProComp wheels with 315/75 BFG All Terrians over July 4th weekend. Its my DD but I am ready to get it going, and fit in the occassional off roading trip.

P.S. If anyone is around town and is interested, willing and/or available to help me out installing the lift, maybe this weekend, let me know. I will definitely provide beer/food or whatever.... my jack stands and jack are in NC, so I am either going to have to rent or borrow, or purchase them. I guess an extra set of jack stands isnt the worse thing.

Here is a picture of the ARB bumper I put on, by myself I should add, last night

Does anyone in northern Virginia need a hood? I just swapped mine for one of the COD MW3 Hoods (basically the AEV hood without the vents). I don't need mine anymore and don't have anywhere to put it and the body shop will only hold it for a few days. It's in great condition and is white in color.
