I haven't seen a single bad review. Really cool guy who makes them and the price is absolutely right.

Not sure if it counts but here is what I did to my MJ today:
New windshield wiper bushings installed, bumper repaired/painted, grill & associated trim painted flat black, horn repaired, hazard flasher relay replaced, new fuse for factory clock (it actually has one! but it is so dim that you can barely read it), air filter changed, oil changed (went with synthetic), power steering fluid topped off, coolant strength tested, tires aired up

He's not talking about the fenders, he's talking about the LCA's... those rims are Turbines, they are 15x7, not 15x8 and they have a lot of backspacing... which bring them closer to the lower control arms. Any 15" wheel that came from the factory on an XJ is 15x7

Yesterday I removed my IRO OTK Steering and track bar from my old jeep. Going on a friend's TJ.

Then i swapped wheels and tires on my new jeep so now they all match.

Today the lift is coming off the 96 and going to a friend.
