"Bought this for the wife yesterday. Her name is Jeanette."

Who? The wife, or the Jeep? :ROTFL:

Welcome to the forum- there's lots of good info to be had. The jeep looks shnazzy. I like the rims.

Ooohhh. I like that. How high of a lift is that? How does fuel economy compare with stock? I know on my old lifted ZJ I was only able to get 15 on the highway.

Lift is whatever you get from just OME Springs. (I think I gained 3 inches total due to sagged springs.) Usually I get between 16-18 around town and about 20.5 going 70-75 on the highway. And there is a lot of hills around here so it would be even better if I lived somewhere flat. Having a manual tranny helps! 8)

I have a lot of reading to do so I'll definitely know what I'm in for as far as a lift goes. I would have loved to have a manual, but the wife doesn't know how to drive stick... yet.

Did the mesh grill today. Turned out well, but I'm going to redo a couple of the inserts as I'm not completely happy with them.
