Ok... so, I've got new BUSHWACKER FLAT FLARES sitting in my living room waiting to be installed 
... then my OR-FAB TIRE & CAN CARRIER arrived TODAY 
... and now I've ordered a FULL TRACTION 3" LIFT KIT which should hopefully arrive next week!!
How am I going to find the time to install all of this?!?

Since I haven't gotten my new wheels & 35s yet, we decided to hold off on the Bushwackers until I get the new shoes. With the stock wheels on 32s, I think it might look too silly with the flat flares on smaller tires. Here's some pics...

You know, all you have to do is start.
The other night, i opened my hood to se what i could do to put my cold air intake back on, next thing i know i have a cold air intake, a custom made splash shield, an empty quart of strawberries and it's 3:45am...
So, just start and you'll get it all done.. no sweat.

Hahaha I posted some stuff in another thread, but here's what I did so far! I installed the 3" lift on Saturday... amazingly we got it done in 5 hours with a 30 min break to eat lunch. The hydraulic lift at my bros house made things go so much easier! Surprisingly we got almost a full 5" in the front and 3" of lift in the rear. The JK is now leveled out and to me simply looks awesome. I'm really liking the look, the height, and the ride quality!
Then we said "f*ck it" and decided to install the ORFAB Tire carrier immediately after. That was a PITA to install without an angle drill, and we made a few mistakes, which we corrected, but got it done in about 4 hours.

Alright how much of a PIA was the tire carrier to put on? I have that adventure and the rear bumper to do yet. It's driving me crazy sitting here all day with the kids and wanting to put on my OR-FAb rear bumper at least, but I'm not lifting that bumper myself Should I ask the pool boy for help?
