Hella's installed ~ Poser pics

Finally got the Hella's installed so I thought I'd share.

Now for the poser shots! Just goofin' off and havin' some fun.

These tires REALLY suck by the way! Just in case you didn't know. :roll:

I could've easily made it up this pile if I would've had better tires. Only a couple more paychecks!

You really have to look in this pic but the rear brake line is really streched out. I'm suprised I haven't heard of more people having this problem.

Has anyone else noticed this? What have you done to fix the problem? When I actually inspected it the line was pretty tight and I haven't even picked the back wheel up yet. I'm afraid I'll break something if I do now. Any suggestions?

looks good. And yes, I have the same problem with that driver side brake line. I have lifted mine bout 4 1/2", so if I was to try what you did in that picture, I would rip that line off, I think I'm going to either make a longer one from braided line or delete that line and go with one line to service both back calipers, that will run from the body/chassis, down to the differential instead of the end of the axel as is does stock. No company, that I know of, has made a solution to this problem exept for a spacer that mounts between the brake line braket and the frame. I have seen someone on here say they used a short piece of tubing as a spacer to move the braket a couple of inches, Which may be all it needs. good luck and it looks real good!!!

I realize the first picture is really bad quality here but it's a good comparison so I thought I'd add it.

It's amazing the difference in articulation you can get from just 2.5". You can't really tell here from the picture but the first picture the tire is actually about 1" off the ground and I still had more to go on the 2nd picture.

I went back to the same hill that the first picture was taken from to get a better comparison photo and the Jeep crawled right up it and the photo didn't do it any justice so I had to find a bigger hill.
