Here are some pics of my KJ and Mini Me, lol. The front is setting at 35" from the ground to the fender flare and the rear is at 34 3/4" as of yesterday. The lift was done last weekend and it measured 1" higher then. The ride is so much smoother and whole lot more stable feeling over RR Crossings. It also rides great offroad. I had to test it out for noises afterwards, lol. The lift consists of OME HD f/r springs, Rancho Struts and Shocks. Also added 3 ring clevis lift. Thanks to everyone who helped me in deciding to go this route either in words or posting pics of your own install! Enjoy!

Looks really nice. and I love that red.

So your Lift settled 1" from last week?

I installed my Frankenlift II last sunday and it still has not setteled yet. I am still sitting at 36" ground to bottom of fender flare.

That's actually a Nike fleece (sorry guys, lol). Yeah I was surprised it settled so much so quick. The whole install too about 6hrs, kept having to wait on the air compressor to build back up to compress those front coils. Yours looks good too Jeep Dawg! I just didn't have the cash to go the Frankenlift route, would've been nice to swap front assy instead.
