I'm tempted to do it myself just to see how long it takes me, lol
I won't lie - if I ever lift another Jeep I'm sending it to a shop 🤣

Did my last one (true dual rate from Metal Cloak, so like half a Game Changer), helped with others. It sucks on the ground.

I did my front leveling spacer on my Gladiator but a full Gamechanger doesn't sound fun anymore.

That's where I'm at in life and the reason I started this thread. Heck, I pulled a back muscle in the shower this morning washing my hair so putting on a lift would be interesting. I just wanted to make sure what I was told was reasonable and I wasn't getting ripped off.

Imagine the increase in Carpal Tunnel after the Badge of Honor refreshes.

Yea after re-reading your first post, it seems close enough, including that driveshaft and steering parts. Maybe a shade on the high side to cover any snags.

This morning my buddy said he and I could knock it out in a weekend, maybe. I just feel guilty asking him to help me do that after he's doing it at work all week.

What are friends for?

I used to wire emergency vehicles 5-6 days a week.

My buddy had exactly zero remorse to ask me to wire stuff all weekend 😆

Edit: His wife's project truck is sitting in my driveway waiting on some wire work. It's 107* outside. Not hurrying 😫

I still pretend that I do. I haven't taken the plunge and shaved it bald yet. It was less washing my hair and more just using body wash everywhere. 😁

Actually, no, but he does sometime accept smoked meats as payment. I don't want to ask him to help since he just got this job as a mechanic. I don't want him to have to wrench on vehicles all week and then help me on the weekend.
If he doesn't like beer, that would throw up a red flag in my mind regarding his skills.
Just my thought.

Yep. I just shave mine with the Whal clippers. Saves me the ridiculous price for hair cuts and I call the bald spot my solar panel. I keep my beard to make up for it. :like:
