The freaking 2nd box showed up with the rest of the kit. 8 days late. Unbelievable. I will say 4 Wheel Parts customer service was awesome throughout this. Probably going to stick with them from now on.

Hell yeah. Hindsight I maybe should have driven the 45 min to Orlando to pick it up in person, but I don't leave my bubble much. I'm hoping to get mine in this weekend.

I did mine yesterday. Took me about 6 hours. Few issues with lining up the track bar bracket in the back and also taking the random shocks off the front that were replaced and both different from each other.

Hope you got yours on with no issues!!

Nice! I'd like to see some better shots. It it looks like a totally different Jeep!

Doesn't look like I'll get to mine this weekend. I have a buddy that works at a hot rod shop and I'm trying to get some free lift time. I've done enough suspension work on my back that it's worth the wait.

But I am painting my wheels finally. Just got them sanded and prepped. (Don't mind the twin turbo diesel powered gasser)

Teaser on the wheels. I'm super happy with how they turned out. They will be ready for tires tomorrow but I'm going to wait sn extra day And I did the Eastwood plastic restorer on my rear bumper and license plate frame.

Well, after deciding on this set up 16 months ago I finally did it. Stock 16's painted bronze with 285/75-16 BF Goodrich KO2's. (I think 16 is my lucky number at the moment.
