This monday, I got the rest of the OME installed!

I only have these two pics for now, but I hope to get it out wheelin tomorrow, so hopefully I can get more then

And the wheels are at full lock b/c I was finishing up some trimming, so hopefully no more rubbing!! :pepper:

Thanks!

Might not get to wheel it tomorrow anymore, got a call that I have to go do some landscaping at work...

But, I can still test out the springs by pulling a riding lawn mower around! :lol:

The scenery's pretty nice by work, so when I'm done, I'll try to get some shots that LOOKS like I was offroad :pepper:

i have a notion that's not just an OME lift!!! haha if it is it looks high! did you do any extra iso's or clevis? Also i really dig those black fender flares on your renny that normally has color matched! nice touch.

haha yep! I thought I added that in, but there's a 3/8" shim from boiler, and 3 conduits on each side in front, and a 1" spacer from LTT in back.
I ended up at about 22.5" in back and 22" in front from center of wheel to fender

with the flairs, it started out my mom tried to pull out a bush with my JEEP with a dog leash :-)r

Well, it slipped off the bush, and gave me a nice dent and paint chip in the bottom of the tailgate, so rather than color match, I just bedlined a 2" strip along the bottom, but had a lot of bedliner left, so I thought about what else I could paint. I was getting some rust on the bottoms of the doors, so I wanted to do that anyways, then I tried a photoshop mock-up of what it would look like with black fenders, and I liked what I saw! :BANANA:

I still want to possibly do some bedlining with the bumpers, but I can't decide how exactly I want to do it :juggle:

Looking good! The more I see pics after my camping trip the more I want to lift the ol' KJ. Hopefully I can sell the talon and get a good uncle sam check as I want to do CVs as well.

O\o/O <--what my CVs look like unloaded on level ground.

First thought was...WTF he is taller than me and I have OME HD all the way around...but I also have a lot of added weight...
Looks great!
