Finally Got My Lift On!

[CNTLOSE]

Although nothing too exciting for some of you...lol.

It is a Rubicon Express 2" BB lift w/ a set of RE shocks. Finished it up today and going for an alignment tomorow. Also having the Falken tires removed from these factory wheels that were on them when I purchased them, to a set of black M/T Classic II's. (The factory wheels on the after pic will be for sale if anyone is interested.)

BEFORE...I have better before, but wife took camera to school.

AFTER...will post some better ones when I have the M/T's on.

:D I wish. Had originally planned on a 4.5 LA kit, but decided to hold off for now. If I am able to hit trails more than I think I will, I may upgrade later. But for now this will do.

Yeah I have seen a couple of those on the GC forums. Probably won't ever go that far since I can not weld...but definitely a bigger lift one day.


This past Sunday I wrapped up my week off by painting the grill and bumper. Will finish the rest of the molding this weekend.

Heading to the local jy tomorrow to see if I can find some skid plates, fog lights/controller, and few other misc items.

Also last fall I picked this F150 up. Ford has made some great improvements with these trucks of the last few years.
