worked 830am-8pm with a few ๐Ÿบ breaks. broke a few bolts, specially โ€˜โ€˜modifiedโ€™โ€™ a few things, blah blah blah. anyways, as it sits now, 2.5โ€™โ€™ lift (understated by the mfg, prob closer to 2.8โ€™โ€™), 1.25โ€™โ€™ shackles. its about 4.3โ€™โ€™ but the springs will settle a little bit. im not running track bars (front or rear) and no sway bar so its a little squirrly on the highway, but hey, its a jeep. no flex pics (its raining and i dont feel like getting wet), maybe tomorrow or tuesday. its taller than EMXโ€™s though to compare, and without track bars and a sway bar, it miiiiight flex a little more. ---

a little decceleration vibration but ill wait till the ujoints set before i start jumping to conclusions. its a rough ride without those track bars and sway bar, its kinda scary on the thruway. maybe new tires next season. were you surprised last night when you saw my jeep parked next to yours, and mine was taller? i checked and double checked just to make sure ๐Ÿ™‚ ---
