I'm planning on this Saturday...pretty much anytime after 9am if you guys want to stop buy. I'll definitely have bumpers, skids and flat fenders to install. Right now I'm still waiting for confirmation that the lift will be here on Friday. Once I get that figured out for sure I'll PM my address to whoever is interested.

UPS man isn't bringing my lift until Monday. :( Maybe we can set something up for next weekend. This Saturday won't work.

Very nice, it looks like they brought the green back. I haven't seen that color since I owned my 2004 LJ unlimited.

Yep, this is "Natural Green Pearl Coat." I really wanted something that said classic Jeep and I think this does. Pretty sure it is a new, old color for 2010 (if that makes sense).

Looks great!. :rockon:

I especially like the high clearance fender flares. That ought to allow some serious articulation. I think Wranglers should come with those from the factory.

Those are American Racing Teflon Coated Mohave 16" wheels with 4.5" back spacing. They worked out perfectly. I think black wheels look tough on Jeeps.

The flat fenders were a big part of my plan. I wanted to clear 35s with as little lift as possible. Well, these Bushwackers allowed me to do that with no lift at all! Now when I add a 3" lift it will just be gravy. :BANANA:

Now to add the Mashed Potatos to that gravy.

Looks great!

Now go get a Cruiser to go riding with me and Ted. Marty is looking at one. Anyone else?

I think he’s referring to a Motorcycle.

Ah. 50 MPG sounds great. But a little tough to show houses while riding a motorcycle.

"Honest, this is the perfect place, just hop on the b!tch seat and I'll show it to you." :ROTFL: Maybe with a side car as long as they don't have kids. :D
