thank you!

the height doesn't bother me as much as the rear is a little higher, I'm sure it will settle and if it doesn't ill figure it out...

the rear is going to stay how it is for now, no bumper. I think it looks alright for the time being.

my plan was to eventually run flat flares, but with this lift it might look awkward.

thinking about throwing the stock coils back in with the TF budget boost but keeping the rest of the kit in, shocks , track bar , sway bars ,brake line extensions all left in.

I am running the EVO shackles and just installed the rear fascia myself.

I might be interested in the coils if you decide to make that move. I really do think it looks perfect tho. I am looking at that lift as well as the Rancho 2". I will be running 295's.

I decided on keeping the coils they are settling and sit level now...

I like the look of the evo shackles , my buddy runs them too . I think when the time comes ill go with a tire carrier mounted to the bumper

Took the jeep out to Rausch this weekend.

Really took a beating, running the most Black and some Reds (Rock Creek , Crawl Daddy) we could , the jeep is bruised.

Passenger side Control arm bent, gas tank skid really bent up bad, exhaust crossmember bent in , frame mounts damaged, tie rod bent, and a bunch of rock rash. she took a lot of abuse.
