Finally got around to building my big boy lift! I'll take final measurements once she's sitting on the ground.

Oh Yea! As an added bonus....while on the way to my friends shop to install the lift... a huge Hawk flew up from the side of the road and planted itself right in contact with my hood...

Never a dull moment.

Honestly there really isn't any road noise. They actually handle pretty darn good even with my lead foot. Ride got a little better with the stock suspension.

Just had a record fillup, at least since I lifted it and put on the larger tires.

343 miles
17.6 gallons of gas used
= 19.5 mpg!!!

Mostly highway, of course. :BANANA:

Sounds fine to me! How much louder is it than it was before?

Quite a bit, drone isn't too bad unless you're sitting at about 2000 rpm, seems to be loudest right around that area. Definitely more fun to drive now though, was just too quiet before.

Blacked it out. Lost brain cells smelling plastic dip but I think it came out OK.

Got a new exhaust system today, because my original muffler, pipe, and resonator were basically made of Swiss cheese 9 years on. (2008 KK)

She sounds like a new vehicle that just rolled off of the dealer lot!

Factory replacement? If not, we need sound clips/videos.

got rid of that f'n air-dam POS plastic thing on the bottom front end of my lib. the dang thing wasn't even bolted on!!! it literally slid right off after about 20 minutes of me trying to see where it was attached to! looks a lot better without, amazing what legit two inches of plastic will do/won't do to this lib. i imagine when i get lifted eventually it'll be better. LEGIT TWO INCHES of plastic. i can't imagine how it would be beneficial to the air transfer capabilities.

Sitting at 23.5 front and rear cv's aren't happy up front and there have been small hiccups along the way but... that's what happens when you build it yourself

TIJKK1220, that looks like it turned out great! Got any shots of the suspension components all hooked up? Curious eyes like to look! :) How does it ride now?
