I need to get those rims soon. The 14 bolt is just waiting on one part, then it can go in. The spring plates should have been shipped here by now. I am sure glad that axle came with some roller tires.

yeah black would look nice with the white jeep, but i'm not sure that quote was originally said in reference to your jeep :wink: :wink:
nice progress though, that thing is going to look sweet on those HUGE tires.

Impressive... (thinking someday, someday...) I hope the weather has been cooperating, as it looks like you're either doing it out in the driveway, or your garage walls are an extremely detailed mural of a neighborhood. Can't wait to see what it looks like when done.

haha, that's exactly what I was thinking  .
But yes, you Jeep is looking VERY VERY good!! Glad to see you were able to get it up high enough. If that was my neighborhood, some kids would probably push it over in the night

Tall isn't the word for your jeep now. I think your going to scare small children. lol I would be nervous with it on those stands too. It is looking good. Now how are you going to get into it? With a step ladder? I can see you pulling up somewhere and throwing out a rope ladder like those on the back of a boat. lol Do you have lift and tire size laws in your state?

Oh, one thing I forgot to ask: How much lift do those springs have? How much lift are you shooting for?

It has 3 inch springs with add a leafs, 3 inch body and soa. That is right under 12 inches not including tire height. I am right at legal level. I tried getting into it one day. I needed a step ladder to get in. Yeah, my parents are just as worried as I am :wink: . They park right next to it.
Saurian, dude, you can't tell that is my garage? I am an excellent painter. Once that 14 bolt goes in, it will look halfway normal. I should be right about that height in the pictures after the tires go on ond bolt the axles up.

getting a full size spare? might be a little bumpy of a ride if you have to drive home on that spare.

RE: XJ... can it tow my YJ?
I'm jealous. I always wanted to lift mine that much when I had it.

You do put something under that when you working on it(like tires under the frame rails)???
But...
Should look killer when all done! I made the decision this weekend to do a soa on my 4" springs in the coming year.

I have no reason to get under it until the spring plates come in then the axle can go in. Trust me it is sturdier than it looks.
