Wheeled it yesterday. Local vineyard and club setup a course including rocks, barriers, mounds, and mud pits. It was like a mini OCJW. U shaped my tail pipe and kept wheeling.

New 3.5 rubicon express leafs came today. Got most of the installation done. Heading to fastenal tomorrow after work to get 9/16 x 4.5 bolts for the rear leaf mounts. Decided to slide the 8.25 underneath and bolt one side up. Wasn't until I screwed the nuts alllllllll the way down the long new ubolts that the center hole in the leaf perch needed to be widened for the new leafs. Also, would've been awesome if the RuffStuff ubolts fit into the RuffStuff spring plate without me having to crack the dremel out

Installed brake pads. The hideous screeching noise from the $19 set of pads the PO installed is gone. Just if he had done it right the first time, I wouldn't of had to do brakes for a while.

I was trying to remember how I knew the instagram name. Now I remember I saw a picture of the jeep on Cherokee forum and instagram so I added you. It all make sense now.

Either deflate the tires enough to lower it some, or roll it out on a dolly or something then jack it up and put on the tires.
