So the lift kit, tires and wheels and SYE finally all got to my house and I had a free weekend to install it.
Overall I’d say it was pretty straightforward. With the help of my two brothers and a car lift it took about 17 hours to install. I did a Rough Country 4 inch lift and 33x12.5 Pro Comp XMTs on black steel rims. Overall it gave the Jeep about 6 inches of lift. I also came by a Smittybuilt front bumper so that was installed as well.
My only complaint about the lift kit so far is that the instructions are a little shy on detail. I thought they could use more pictures and be a little more descriptive. Obviously we were able to make it work but having more info is never a bad thing.
I will try to update this later about how the lift holds up and if I think of anything noteworthy.
