The exhaust extensions come in the Mopar kit. The ride is sweet. The mechanic that installed it was really surprised how it drove for a lifted jeep. I just put the soft top on and have been driving around enjoying the jeep. I will get better pics.

did you replace your front drive shaft? from what ive read 2"+ on the 2012 need to do the front driveshaft. that is also why im having the dealer do it for me. so if they dont replace it and my front driveshaft takes a dump looks like its on them.

Has he wheeled it and full flexed it out? Just wondering? Cause when I have the funds for the lift I wanna have everything done at once and not worry aboot having to buy this or that.

How do you like it so far? Have you changed out the front drive shaft or are you planning to? Total newb here and this is my first Wrangler, had an XJ before, but never ended up wheeling it too much due to being a broke college kid and it has no recovery points or any fun toys on it, so any suggestions you have after living with this lift would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
are the plastic winders stock tint? or did you do them? i needa get rid of the non tinted winders lol.

The Mopar lifts use limiting straps to prevent to much axle drop and driveshaft issues. Not good for articulation
