Awesome progress, buddy! I just got my lift installed, too! What are you gonna use for rear bump stops?

2 hockey pucks and a big arsed bolt

That's what I did, too. If you're doing the 4 inch, you'll need more than 2 pucks per side.

Got ya. I thought I read you were doing the 4 inch. I have the "econo" lift which is all Old Man Emu parts. I did the two pucks per side. :JEEPIN:

Well I measured the front and I've got 22.5. 3.5' overstock with just the 790s/bilstein and no clevis or top plate. Not too bad :SOMBRERO:

Nope ebay special. My buddy has the same one and it's been great so I figured since I needed one I'll get this one

Hey as long as it works! Ive got a friend trying to sell me on bubba ropes but I just can't justify the cost right now. Some people swear by them though

Kind of looks like uneven driveway. Looks really great!

Front looks higher to me, too. Both before and after pics are taken in the same spot in the driveway.
