My dad just so happen to have just cleaned his shop up real good. So, i pulled the jeep in and installed my front tow hooks. Wasn't hard at all. Took a nice amount of triming on the inside of the bumper, but nothing my grinder, for the big cuts, and drimmel, for the detail stuff, couldn't handle.

installed an aftermarket Evap Skid Plate...Went this route rather than relocating...Will see how this holds up, then if need be will relocate the evap above the axle...

 

New wheels/tires. I will install the lift next week. Had to put the new shoes on now because I had someone waiting on the stocks.

In case anyone was wondering. The JK can handle 33" (actually 33.5") tires on a stock suspension, no problems.

 

I close up photo of the shoes.......

 

You spent more time photographing that thing than it took for me to install my Rockhard skid...

 

how do you like the aem bruteforce? i just installed the same one. i am very pleased.

 

Looks good. Can you snap a shot from further away to help get a better view? Which brand is that? How much? Easy install?

Thanks. yes, I saw that later in your other site signature.

 

Finally got 285/75/16 Firestone Destination mudders to replace the stock X tires! Woohoo! Now my Jeep looks like a Jeep!!

Amazing how something like tires can make your whole week!!

Will post pics after I wash it up from all the salt residue...
