MTG and I just installed a full EVO Enforcer lift on his Jeep. Neither of us had lifted a Jeep before and neither of us are mechanics. Have an install party so you have a few extra sets of arms and eyes. You will save a ton of money and learn a lot about your Jeep.

You up at schofield? The hobby shops nice but you can't drink beers up there!!! Lol if you see the white Jku rolling around lifted black rims and a trex top- that's me- yeti.... I've personally installed 7 jk lifts here on island. And I have ALL the tools you would need.

X2 what Charlie said, craft shop is good but no beer. Spent 5 years at schofield. Could not afford a jeep so I ran a samuri. They even have a junk yard. Hey, seriously the lift is easy. I did a BB on the driveway by myself. Getting ready to upgrade to the 2.5"

Not to hijack your thread stinger, but I have a follow on question. I am getting ready to install the TF 2.5 also ( shock extenders) and have 2 questions:
1) While I have the Jeep on the lift, is there anything I should do/check while I am there?
B) Is there anything else i should have besides the lift kit (just in case or required. eg grease, bolts, etc..)?
I replaced my springs on my Suzuki Samurai about 12 years ago, but that was a while ago and I am a bit rusty if you will.
