I purchased mine! i have been in a pickup for a while and missed having a jeep. it is a 2016 wrangler unlimited willys wheeler edition in the granite with a hard top. plans: 2" mopar stage 1 lift since it comes with driveshaft for the new stupid exhaust system. 35" tires and a smittybilt src stinger front bumper /winch. There will be much more but those are my immediate plans to get a better stance and more utility for trails. i have had other jeeps as well my previous was a 2012 sport 2 door, 06 tj sahara, 95 yj 5 speed (still own) my wife also just purchased a renegade which she loves but wont be seeing any trails lol. So glad to be back pics will be coming soon...

Thanks brother..
No lift at this time, I'm taking a different approach than I did with my JKU....Build the Jeep first then build the lift around everything else..
Reason being I don't want to choose the wrong lift and have to start over or change everything if I didn't get the lift right the first time.....I already have the rest of the Jeep 100% planned out.
Flat fenders are on the way, then skids, bumpers, winch, and lights....We'll see how much all that weighs the Jeep down, I'm trying to pick light weight stuff so hpefully it doesn't sag too much........shall see !

We installed a full CB system in the new JKU. The rear shocks for our lift are still on back-order, so we're making ourselves busy with the smaller projects. Link to our video below:

Wasn't hard to find the rubbing in the daylight, its that valence or whatever its called below the front bumper...A Dremel w/cutting wheel or Saw Zawl wil make quick work of that little problem..
