Got the DesertDoesIt Shorty Front Seat Jackers installed today. Had to trim the carpet a little so that the mounts sit flush with the metal floor. After install, I found that I had to move my seat forward a few clicks.

A little trail damage from Rausch Creek.

The Diff covers

The suspension skid plates got kissed.

The White Knuckle sliders did their job. They got landed on found a 3ft drop. The Line-x coating got peeled off in a few spots.

Even the WeatherTech front mud flaps got dents in them.

The factory skid plates got it too.

Lower control arms.

looks like you managed to hit every rock out there Your supposta pick lines that keep you from doing that

Glad to see someone not scared to use their jeep.

Try to keep up with Power Wagons that have about 18" of suspension travel is hard on Black trails. Got 3 trail badges coming. Rausch Creek Trail #11, Crawl Daddy, and Crawler Ridge. The last 2 busted my balls. Got winched 3 times.

Something else I found out. The bolt for the SteerSmart trackbar bracket hits the axle tube at full flex. You can see where the undercoating is removed on the tube.

time for a 3" lift and 37's

Wifey was with me on the first day. After smacking bottom a few times. She said to get a lift kit. Thinking on the Mopar lift kit for starters. That will get me up for the time being. Then add on later. The tires will be Super Swapper 37" IROK radials. Wanting beadlock rims with something like 4.75" of backspacing. Trying to keep the tires somewhat tucked in.

I have been very happy with my rkk adv kit and rrk shocks, worth a look in my opinion especially since it looks like you like to bigger things.

I think in the long run you will be happier as you keep wheeling

I really want to do Clayton diesel springs with RockJock control arms and trackbars. Fox 3" adjustable shocks. To do that will take a while and $$$. For the time being, the Mopar lift will get me up. Then I could sell it later on.
