So-Cal isn't the only one's lifting Jeeps. Gotta give it up for Cen-Cal, two lifts in a month.
WooHoo!

Hey Kent, your JK looks awesome! The lift gives it a nice stance and I'm sure it rides a lot smoother too. Here are some pics.

The front tear down.

Thanks for posting the pics bro! They are great. Do you have a "all done" final shot?

Looks great! Thanks again to Mr. & Mrs. Diablo Blanco for serving pizza and coldies.
Thanks also to everyone that came. It was a good turn out.

I really wish that I had my other camera with me instead of my little point & shoot. The pics would have come out a lot better. That's what happens when you forget to charge batteries.

Looks like you guys had a good time. The jeep came out looking real nice. Wish I could have helped but looks like you had plenty of people. Hope you can make it to the M&G so we can all check it out in person.
