As God as my witness, this is the last time I am doing this.

I had a few hours of downtime this weekend.. I was trying to wait until a friend had a free weekend, so we could just do my mods and his mods at the same time. But having this stuff sitting in the garage and nothing good on TV, I just had to do it. 1-steering extension, 12-2"x3" lift blocks, 12-bolts, 1-front bumper relocation setup, a few tools, and two hours, and a couple beers......I am body lifted once more!


No rear bumper relocation brackets this time around. A sharp blade = a solution.


Trimmed the bottom of the bumper cover. I am going to bolt on some 1-5/8" strut on the top of the impact bar to fill most of the gap. Now I can finally work on sliders and a steel bumper. Still need the skid plates, though. As soon as I sell the stock wheels, they will be ordered.

Nice... Definitely don't stand on your bumper step until you reinforce it.

[MrSmithsTB]

Eh, polypropylene is fairly flexible.

Looks awesome! What size tires is that? Great job!

[MrSmithsTB]

Thank you, sir. Same size tires, 255/75/17. Probably keep them for a while longer since they have decent tread left. Instead I'll spend some loot on protection. Right now I am looking into getting a JK winch bumper and having my friend modify the brackets.

You still interested in buying a couple of my old tires?

[MrSmithsTB]

Even though the next step is 33", I will probably still be getting a couple. I still need a full size spare and I am going to ride these tires for a while so I can save for something really good, and new.
