Haha, thanks... I have been itchin' ever since I placed the order. First was when is it gonna actually ship out, then when is it going to arrive, then when can I make the earliest appointment for the install, now waiting for the day of install! I will be doing my best to take some before and after pics. Of course, I need to be as level as possible when I take the pics to get a true idea. I'll also take a measurement for all you numbers people, haha...

I have a date with the shop tomorrow morning at 9am, should be about 6 hours and an hour to get my transfer case & differential fluids changed while the jeep is lifted up. Going full synthetic (Royal Purple - some top notch stuff).

Dude, I haven't stopped beatin' my meat to it yet enough to take some after pics!!!!!!! HAHAHAHA!!!! I can't even say how happy I am with the outcome, it is AWESOME! Mind you, the tires are a little small now (running 33's) but I am OK with it bc it still looks friggin' awesome.

I should have some pics hopefully tomorrow, if not definitely the weekend. Took about 7 hours and that included my shop changing my transfer case & differential fluids.

I did a ROUGH quick measure in the freezing cold this morning, at the top of the jeep above the door where the soft top meets the windshield, I believe I was at 74". I could be wrong, my memory sometimes fails me but I believe that sounds right. I can get the measurements quicker than the pics bc when I get home from work, its already dark so pics won't come out.

Well, I finally got to taking some quick pics after the install of my new lift. Couple things to keep in mind. First and most importantly - IT'S COLD AS SH*T OUT IN JERSEY TODAY! So the pics are what they are. I know there is glare from the sun on the after pics, sorry....Anyway, I tried to get the angle/distance as close to the original location before the lift as I could, so its not going to be perfect. Also, I had a 2.25" budget boost to begin with (so the pics aren't from 0" lift to 3.5"). I tried to put some yellow arrows to point out some good areas to show what the lift did. Now, I want my 37's even sooner!!!! Unless someone wants to buy my ProComp XTreme AT's 33's, hahaha....
