Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Cool 2.5BB, 35", and 1" Body lift just installed!!

So after reading a ton on the forum, I finally got the goods put on my Jeep. I got a Rough Country BB kit, MORE 1" Body Lift, 35" Nitto Mud Grapplers, and teraflex 1.5" wheel spacers. I am very pleased with how eveything turned out! It all took me about 4 hours to do. Its real easy and it rides amazing!!! I love it!! Here are some pics of it. Let me know what you guys/gals think!!

in my opinion you chose the right setup... how much trouble was it making the adjustments for the 35's as far as alignment?

I will eventually but I dont know when or which one I want yet. I have another toy that I want to put some money into. What I really want to get though is the Bestop wrap-around windjammer with a duster cover and bikini top for the summer.

I didnt even adjust it!!!! Yep, thats right, no adjustment!!! After the two lifts, I drove it to see where my steering wheel was. Its a hair off to the left, no lights on from the ESP and I have put about 100 miles on it already. I will however adjust the center link to center the steering wheel, but, its only off about 1/8" to the left. Not a lot at all. I will also do a toe adjustment later, about 1/8" toe in for tire wear sake. this is what I read on the "Do it yourelf alignment" on the How-to section of the forum.
