Getting Lifted! *edit* *PICS*

Going to get Franken-Jacked AT NOON

all of my parts are all laid out and ready to install!

I've got 4 jackstands and 2 floorjacks ready to go, I think I've got 2 or 3 buddies just ITCHING to help me out.

I have a small group of friends that LOOOVE Jeeps, almost as much as I do, and Since Ben sold his we haven't wrenched on anything in a long time. Ben's jeep was a bit of a pile, needed new stuff every week or so, but we loved wrenching on it.

It will be smooth as pie. The only PITA on the lift is assembling the front springs, and those should be pre-assembled. The rear is so easy you won't believe it. The ratchet strap idea that you hear about saves a lot of grunt work. Have fun!

you running skinny tires for now?

VoodooMann · **Posted:** Sun Feb 14, 2010 2:41 pm

yodejt02 · **Posted:** Tue Feb 16, 2010 11:05 am

4 of them they are the real deal not treadwrights three of them have some decent tread left on them, one of them is alright would use it as a spare.

Rear is done!

can't wait to do the front tomorrow. Had to make a couple trips out so it took wayyyy longer than it WOULD have if I hadn't lost 1/2 my tools...

the front would be done too...

Lost my camera, so pics will have to wait till tomorrow kids!

tommudd · **Posted:** Wed Feb 17, 2010 8:43 pm

Yes two hours is way MORE time than you need to do the front! :wink:

My friend with the garage is trapped in dayton, so no work has been completed today.

mostly because all of my tools are still in his garage!

tommudd · **Posted:** Thu Feb 18, 2010 1:23 am

VoodooMann · **Posted:** Thu Feb 18, 2010 1:31 am
