    love the lift!!!! almost makes me want to keep mine and do something radical to it....however get them new tires i assume you are waiting on a.s.a.p.----...stock tires look real bad with that lift kit......quite funny because it almost looks like what people do to big trucks (4x4's) around here in New Jersey when trying to pass state inspection laws...<through the small tires back on even with the high lift---during INSPECTION> then if & when they pass they put the big stuff back on....(of course then the state caught onto people doing this a few years ago and made it manditory for all 4x4 trucks with lift of any type 3" or more over stock and or I believe 33" tires and above to go thru a whole different test along with the tilt test area that most states have for big (4x4) trucks. if i'm not mistaken?? you can't even exceed a specific lift and tire size not much bigger than the above mentioned any more in NJ!!!

    again, it looks really sharp lifted like that my friend....i always wondered what the truck would look like all tricked out 4x4 wise or military setup....ugh!!! instead of how most owners trick them out with all high tech rally car racer gear, stupid ugly crazy high tech non-truck looking rims YUCK!!!!!!, then they poke fun at all the young kids driving those very same cars (aka: hondas, mitsu, acura etc etc..) that are designed around that modern look with carbon fiber special this & leather/lights special that look blah blah blah!!...go figure???? it's a 4x4 truck dammit, if you modify it? keep with the 4x4 theory! that's my motto........

    ok ok i'm being harsh with that because the truck does look damn good tricked out for street use, but i personally like the 4x4 look much more than the street look. if you want a car? buy 1!!!!


    although it makes one hell of a rally racer if done right....and hell you can enter the non-pro un-sponsored class! and with just a few minor mods, probably kick the crap out of most other competitors in stock catagories. no stock jeep or other suv on the market will come even close to competing with it from a factory standpoint.

    hats off to ya &
    best of luck,
    kevin
