OK so i know i said i would take pics of the my lift install but honestly.. There wasn't time for that! I had a couple of friends come by to lend a hand and we spent 10-12 hours putting this pig together :shock: ! Took care of all the really big things Sat. and still had to finish up today. Considering we did it all with NO power or air tools.(other than grinder and recip. saw) I think it went rather well. I think RC need to take a closer look at there product and make adjustments. Anyway blah blah blah...... On with the pics right!

Here is what it looked like when i brought it home on 30x9.50s

Here it is now with the 4.5 RC long arm on 33x12.50s Rims are a little wide 15x10 and will be changing to 15x8 D windows that are sitting in the corner of the garage.

How much weight did it take to balance them? Ad sounds like they are off enough to warrant lots of weight or not for street use?

Ummmm.... Not to sure on how much weight they actually put on them? On top of running used tires. I'm sure that doesn't help. I figured it would/ might be more than normal. I just had them use tape weights to help prevent them from getting pealed of on the rocks. (might make a really unpleasant drive home if they did :JEEPIN: ) LOL.
