    I've never seen a curb tall enough for you to be in need of a high lift...

    Are those the stock side steps or sliders? Will the stock bumpers hold up when that sucker is jacked up?

    Sidenote: I'll be in Parker Feb 3-7th for the Parker 425 race as co-dog in a class 10 car, I'll be doing the 1st and last laps. Come out and visit and bring lots of gifts because my birthday is on race day!

    Sliders, and they hold the weight of the jeep without deflection. Rear bumper sucks, but I can lift from the receiver hitch if needed. 2 Lift points on the front. Only gift I'm bringing is poop.

    Looks good! :thumbsup: and it's locked up good I see. HiLifts are a hot commodity for thieves.

    Still waiting on the full cage and bumper-to-bumper armor :popcorn:

    LOL! I have a 6 point under the hard top, and full skids underneath. Only thing I really need, is new bumpers. :)

    Don't forget to get a swing-out carrier! The one Or-Fab makes is pretty slick.

    Don't need one.
    No idea if/when I will. I'm running 33's right now, and prefer to have the lower center of gravity. At least until I get used to the capabilities.

    Negative. Tire swings with the tailgate.

    No regrets at all. Same mpg as my Tacoma, and hasn't had any issues.

    Yeah, if that time comes, I'll replace the hinges with heavier duty ones. I don't plan on running any tires larger then maybe a 34 inch, so I'm not exceeding the weight by that much

    I got mine done this week, went with the BDS 3 with fox shocks and 35x12.5 R17's 4e532bec49ea6ba3e41466f72fdd9c40_4d50e4693ca7da9dfe9e35c5b3b5d514e0b7ef84.jpg7256e37d0462f016b8107635eae92b63_eb1fb76c8e94e3b4c12a507c255518d946f8acd9.jpga0beea31f0f350587ef9b9f47c9f7e1c_f216abbcb5cc6248d37a2eb4c378937665d4af5b.jpg

    Yeah, The lift I have been thinking about, is about 1.5". but with adjustable King 2.5 Resi shocks, with adjusters. But, I'm on the fence.

    Honesty I think this lift rides better than it did stock
