lol, soon, soon. right now im just finishing working the kinks out that the PO left behind(bought it 2 months ago). recently finished lifting it 2.5", but the front shocks need to go and my steering needs to be fixed(doing that today, zj tie rod/drag link). might pick up a t-case skid while im at the JY today too......

in all honesty, this is my first true 4x4 vehicle, and its also my DD/only vehicle so i cant be too careful.
