My favorite is when I buy $10 worth of hardware from Ace and then the next day I can't find the bag.
Saturday I'll get it's annual inspection. Wish me luck!
The trade target is actually a Rubicon, I just learned. I drove past it last night, looks to be stock height, black, with a hard top & auto. That's the extent of what I know. What does an unmolested rubi get on the open market these days?
Started on installing my lift, rear is done, front is about 25% done. Holy shit is it tall, I love it. A few issues popped up I'll have to address eventually, biggest 2 are the rear track bar contacting the exhaust and the fact that I have like 10% of my tires covered so I'll need to make a removable mud flap or something so I don't get hassled by the cops.

4” is a lot. I could see the TB hitting the exhaust. Did it come with a relocation bracket or new TB? Will you need to drop the TC?
From the advice of others decided to remove the rear TB relocation bracket, adjust the TB to mount at the original location at the axle, What I thought would be 2 hours at the most was 5.5 hours! Between trying to get it adjusted to the correct length, the bushing at the axle seeming to be 1/32” too wide, trying to move the axle to right spot was a pain! Also decided one can never have too many tools to assist in getting the job done.
And all that the axle is still 1/4” off!
It did come with a bracket. Without it the contact would be even worse. I'm putting in a SSSYE so no TC drop for me
Manifold gasket leak?
Traded a set of half door bottoms with no panels for a set of full hard doors. I’m pretty happy about having windows that roll down instead of unzip. Especially when it’s cold/rainy out. And they’re the right color.

When I had half doors I wanted full doors… Now that I have full doors I wish I had my half doors back… good looking rig!
