    I installed a lift on my boss' JK (wrangler unlimited) today. Went pretty normal for a suspension install. Took about 5 hours.

    The lift is a Rusty's Offroad 3.25" suspension lift.
    It includes New coils and shocks, adjustable track bars front and rear. He also opted to get some adjustable LCA's too. I think he spent $700 on it.

    This is the second Rusty's lift I've installed and I will say that If I had a jeep I would go with the Rusty's stuff. Great quality and not over-priced.

    He's getting some 33 12.50's installed on monday and ordering some spidertrax spacers to give it a wider stance.

    Since you installed his lift is he going to give you a raise?

    Haha I wish. He technically did give me a raise in Feb..well more like the company did. But I get a raise every year. It was more of re-payment for him helping me when I built my fence about a month ago. He bought me pizza and beer. That's usually what i work for when it comes to working on cars, I work for tools, food, and beer.

    He got a set of 33X12.50X18's put on today. Toyo MT's. Spidertrax spacers are on order I believe.
