So I bought the Jeep with current rim/tire set up and a god awful 3" BL. Finally convinced my better half to let me remove it. (She hates me tinkering in the garage forever) There are so many questionable brackets and extenders and body gaps. The f bomb was being used like a comma. OME springs gave me the clearance not to rub.

Just a vent. Don't know why a 3" BL was even invented.

Nice pic, looks fresh and clean. You ditched the soft top, why don't you 86 the door surrounds as well?
 
So, what exactly did you do.. go back to original body mounts and swapped out the springs with 2.5" OME's? What size tires are you running with that?
 
Yes and yes, had to order new body bolts. The radiator relocation brackets and the t-case linkage were a bitch. The spring swap took all of 30 minutes. 33x12.50's, they measure ~32"
