Default 3.5 RK Before and After

So I wanted to post some before and after pictures for those looking to lift their JK. I'm new to the forum, but actually had a heck of a time finding good pictures prior. I debated for months on whether to go 2.5 or 3.5 with 35's. Also had a hard time going between lifts as this is my wifes rig and wanted it to work for her and us when we took it offroad. Personally I like the older iron, but this thing is sure comfy to ride around it . It was actually quite difficult to find good pictures so here it is. Hopefully I post this right. This is 3.5 Rock Krawler on 315 ProComp's. We took it to Wyoming on about 150 miles of back country last weekend and the RK suspension worked very well. It rides a little stiffer which I like because I felt it was to soft before. Only issue I have is with the new rear sway bar link, the bolts were much smaller than stock(I believe 10mm v 12mm) which I hated to put on, however I did anyways and it sounded like a metal tool box going down the washboards. I called RK and they said its ok, which it is not so I will make my own. No time to deal with it. If I'd never done a lift prior it would have been difficult, the directions were awful.

Thanks! I forgot to mention, very glad I went with the 3.5 with the 4 door. It sits perfect and cleared most things well in the mountains. My primary concern was clearing the snow in spring and fall trails up high which I think it will do better now.
