GREAT post brother!! If you dont mind me asking, what did you pay for your tires?? I am seriously considering those for my rig. Once you get your rig on the trail, get us some more pics of that BEAUTIFUL rig!! Congrats!!

in the army my first drill instructor told us if you ever get skid marks
take them of and use them as a rag while you working on something
that way you can cover your tracks and say its dirt or grease

But seriously OP, I am so impressed that you've never modded a vehicle before, busted in there got it alt done. Even overcame the few challenges that presented themselves. Wow. New lift, new shoes, lots o' good pics, write-up, and I can even feel the excitement in your post. Well done!

Also - you may want to specify when you order them that you want them mounted on Wrangler MT/R carcasses, or BFG's, if you prefer, I wanted mine on MT/R carcasses so they wouldn't obviously be re-treads and the MT/R tires are great, but they told me they also put the MT/G tread on BFG carcassess so just make sure you specify with them first so you know exactly what you're getting!

Looks great, nice attention to detail.
I know its a little late but I bought a brand new 33 gallon Craftsman compressor from Sears that came with an impact, air wrachet, hammer, and hose for $290. But, electric impacts are nice and you dont have to hear a loud as compressor and wait for the air pressure to build up.

Haha I know, but I didn't want to spend any more money on impact sockets. I blew 2 of them apart and it felt goood!
