I got my father's day/birthday present two weeks ago...TF 2.5 coil kit. I planned on working on it today but got lazy so had to push it back to next week.

Here was my thread thanking Dave and Joe for their help.

Well got my lift done! Wasn't as straight forward as I would have liked it to be and was a slight pain in the rear getting the pucks to seat in the rear coil housing and getting the springs back into place once the pucks went in, but nonetheless! It's done! And I love it!

And After...

Thanks bro!

It was the 1.5 inch Teraflex leveling kit - basically 2 inches in the front and 1 inch in the rear. Helps me get all the clearance I need for my 33's all while still using stock shocks and springs.

Had my son baptised today (daughter was baptised on Mothers day 2 years back). The wife and kids surprised me with a new Weber Genesis grill. Just got done putting it together - she knows I like to tinker and build so she requested an unbuilt one.

Another Jeep bonus, the Raptor lining project is all systems go when they leave for a trip in July!
