Not much happening but it was nice out so I gave in to the queen and got her a spa day with a full on wax.

also I got to pamper myself with crazy Jeep driver sunglasses... yea!

The queen and I took a road trip, she hit a milestone.

Also found out where her major shortcomings are at... ordered the last of the lift components today.

1st round of parts are in... ups guy isn’t gonna be happy when it all comes in.

Oh another box came in before I left for work. Crazy that when I ordered these, there was a disclaimer of 25-30 days from the mfg... showed up in 4 days! Woot

Since I’ve been doing some long drives with the queen, she asked me to be safe and clean, so I just hardwired her uniden R3 radar detector in today before another big trip.

Surgery starts tomorrow for the “queen”. She got all packed up and everything fits under the cover.

After 2.5 days, I can say the queen is better than ever.

Here is everything that was done... take off the fat bobs garage spacer lift, fox extended shocks, fox TS stabilizer, oem driveshaft, springs, control arms, draglink and tie rod.

Installed evo front truss, steersmarts raised trackbar bracket/ top mount draglink/ tierod, Adams front 1350 driveshaft, Metalcloak 3.5” game changer lift/ front durosprings, falcon 3.3 sp2’s in their longest length/ JK version 2.2 stabilizer, rockhard front control arm skids/ rear control arm skids/ rear shock skids.

All I can say is wow, such a difference in driving. She stay down the road straight, definitely less bouncy/ wallowy down the road.

I’m super happy with the result and can’t wait for wheeling season this year. A big shout out to @Northridge4x4 for the install at the Denver location. You guys knocked out the park.

Now for some pictures up the queens skirt!

It’s been a couple busy days since I’ve brought the queen home and she’s glad she’s home too. First off , I took off the hood/ cowl light pods. The lights I got were to much of a flood and not enough spot(also I ended up not liking the mount). I have some pods in mind but going to have to save up for them. Then she got a new top... well a sunrider from bestop. Now she can let the sunshine in where she goes. Also installed a Metalcloak rear diff skid... aka her golden diaper... of course she likes her gold where it counts.
