    It's about 30 degrees outside today, so what a better day to crank the heater up in the garage and get to installing the OME lift! Will post pic's later today.

    So it was a little cold outside, but thanks to some friends and heaters, got the lift and UCA's on today with the wheels and tires. It looks incredible. Monday it goes in for a good alignment!!

    Thanks everyone! Just waiting for it to warm up a bit so I can finish plasti dip on the badges. My next mods are going to be the headlights and front grill. Going to order the grill craft MX after the first of the year!!.

    They are BFG AT's 285/70/17's

    Had some rubbing initially with turns and backing up, but after I got everything aligned, have not had any. The wheels have 4.5" back spacing.

    I found a great deal on the Grill Craft MX grill from auto anything. So I went ahead and ordered it and decided instead of plasti dip on the front grill, going to color match it. I ordered the paint to do that also from Automotive Touch up. Hopefully it will all be here first of next week and I can get started. We are all snowed/iced in today with 4-5 inches of ice/sleet/snow and they are saying that it won't get above freezing until Sunday afternoon. So looks like I will be spending my next few days in the house looking for my next mod!! Been on vacation for a couple weeks so back to work on Sunday. May have to get out and see how the 4x4 handles in all this! So enjoy some pictures of my winter wonderland!
