The front is still a bit high needs to be adjusted but not much, Hopefully it has fenders and exhaust early this week The open headers are awesome. The choice of 4.56's really woke this thing up even with the 35" Grabbers, Keep an eye open for the rest of the show soon.....

If your Serious Kasmir He is up to do another the Exchange rate isn't Great right now tho lol .03 or .05 cents on the dollar I think.

Really doesn't look all that lower then mine,maybe 1"-1.5" lower in the front and just judging from the pics about dead even for the rear but maybe 1/2" lower max.

Think 4.56's woke it up should of tried 5.13's.5.13's would make it just a tad more on the powerside to get the rpm's back to stock range with 35" tires.

Keep in mind the Bumpers Winch and Spare tire aren't there yet, Still adding weight that and it's a few inches too tall in the front due too the wrong length coils.

looking good. I agree with Troy, it looks just a little lower in the rear than mine and my rear is in the same state as yours (no bumper yet). As for the front, w/o flares I cant really tell. What are the specs on the green wrangler?

It looks real mean, but not "red" neck enough... How dare you use factory turn lights!!! trailer it baby!!!

Mean Green is a 2005 TJ Rubicon with a 3.5" Rubicon Express short arm Superflex kit with slightly longer Rancho shocks, It has a swapped in Automatic (looks stock), 33x14.50R15 Nitto Mud Grapplers on Mickey Thompson wheels, Full OBA system with 2.5L tank, alloy shafts a front ARB and all that Jazz. The guy who owns it can really drive makes a lot of rigs that are built better look silly.

As far as the height of My KJ goes wait until it's done then I'll post my Numbers. as of now using the numbers Troy posted here ( viewtopic.php?f=73&t=62515 ) I'm 2.5" lower than him (Not sure what height yours is at tho) at the mirrors with the front end set wrong No bumpers or gear in the rig (also The Grabbers actually measure 36 3/4"). The goal was to build it as low as possible I think we have achieved that by doing a few thing different than what the research says everyone else has done. We used Troys numbers as a baseline and did everything we could to make it lower as his Rig is one of the lower SAS's and one of the better documented builds. I'm sorry if that somehow offended some people but hey he set the bar, I'd take it as a Compliment.

I like it... mine sits about 1" to 1.5" lower than Troys due to cutting the front springs, but she looked real mean 3" lower than troy's, but as soon as we put it in reverse, the jeep dropped further and Marty's eyes got as big as watermelons as he said my upper arms were 1/8" from hitting the sub frame! sucked cause it looked awesome that low!

she looks real good. hope she drives good and nothing hits! good luck squeezing the exhaust in! that is real fun! :banghead:

The Speedo Just Died tonight..... Anyone have any ideas? Everything is still in place except the Front ABS BS at the wheel bearings. It worked on the last few tests then just conked out when I rolled outta the garage tonight.
