I have been running the 1.25" for almost a year, no issues with it or the install (I have an auto, manuals may have different results)

so as far as the installation is concerned... i don't have a vice... how tough are those washers on there? could i do the same with some 2x4's? or could i just spend $3 and get some new ones from Sears

yeah, probably. they're on there good but you just need to hold the bolts up high enough so that you can pound them free.

one last (forseeable) question... you said its the wrong picture and i agree with you but under the "parts included" there is actually a "transfer case linkage pack".... what gives?

sounds like they put up a generic parts list too. the JK doesn't have a t-case shifter linkage attached to the body like the old TJ's did and so this is not something you will need to address.

once again, you're the man.

slightly off topic, i was browsing on that site and an image came up that was modeling some product, i forget what it was. the plate said wayoflife from what i remember. do you have anything to do with them? or maybe it was from the company that made the product...

i've got another question for ya.... i dont have a garage to do this in and my driveway is slightly(as is the norm) inclined... so if i do this in the street out infront of my house i've got the curb on one side, could i put all the spacers in on the one side and turn my jeep around for the other or should i really not drive it when its like that?

or is it actually cool if i do it on my driveway? its not a huge incline....

what are your thoughts ppl?

Was it an LoD Offroad bumper? Lots of cool pics of his Jeep on thier site that maybe the vendor used.
