First major work done! Leveling kit , wheel spacers and XHD Front bumper! Everything took about 5 and a half hours, took our time and worked through everything. There wasn't anything that kept us stumped. The ride is actually quieter now - I must have had some loose bolts that causing some rattling around. Probably taking it to an alignment shop this week just to be extra sure on the alignment (daily driver).

 

Installed mine yesterday. Few hours, basic tools: 18 & 19mm wrenches & sockets, jack & jack stands. Great mod! I love how much more muscular it makes the Jeep look.

 

Can someone give me an idea of how much "harder" it is to get in the Jeep with this kit? I ordered it but my wife will kill me if she has to jump to get in everytime

 

Its hardly noticeable. My wife is 5ft 3in tall (barely, with shoes on), and she was fine with just the leveling kit. With the lift I have now, she has to kind of jump in. But over all she is ok with it. Now my truck on the other hand has a 6" lift, and that she hates getting into.

 

I agree with Stuka. If you do it and don't tell her she would never know.*





*Disclaimer: Unless she is a jeep nut and notices every little thing and even then its a 50/50 shot.

 

Thanks guys I'll see if I can sneak this one under the radar

 

If she says something just do what I do,when my wife complains I look at her like she speaking another language.

 

I installed mine days ago! I like how it looks now. Great cheap mod!

 

Alignment won't change

 

Actually the caster angle does change. But this can only be adjusted with adjustable lower control arms.
