Goofy, how's the steering box brace from FortCollins holding up? Thinking i'll have him fab me up one after the holidays.
To keep on topic: excuse the camera being tilted. Almost done the lift install.

Hey, Overland! Your WJ looks just like mine! Now I know what mine would look like with a lift. What size tires are you running and how much lift?

Are you serious? I've got a pair of 33 X 12.5s here from my Chevy truck. I'm looking at them going "No fracking way!" Of course, I'm also looking at my 245/75R15s tracks in the snow thinking "Those are really wide, aren't they!"
We just got 2 ft of heavy wet snow here in Syracuse and my WJ was like a dozer. Once I hit a pile of plowdrift going into a side road and it only slowed for a second and plowed right through! I've got the General Grabber AT2s and I can't say enough good about them. They are the BEST snow tires I've ever driven on!
I've seen Wranglers with 33s on them and they look like a roller skate. Sorry, JMO.

Serious... lol
Since i used the tires and coils/rears etc from the XJ i was concerned it may be taller than i need/wanted in a rig anymore.. and i think i was right. Might be putting this up for sale or trade for a stock/lesser built ZJ/WJ and build one on 31's.

Sure looks nice though. I notice you haven't cut the bumper (yet). Is there any rubbing?
I made a mistake in my post. I've got 16s on the WJ. I guess my head is still in my ZJ. The AT2s just about fill the wheelwells and I don't think I could go any bigger without mods. It's all I need at present and that's deep snow.

why not swap smaller lift? im not far from you, and did a 3.5 springs in the front and stock fronts in the rear with ext LCAs in the front extended links all around and JK shocks with BPEs in the front and ran 31s with no problem i would swap everything with you and meet ya half way if you are interested at all
