WOOT!!! B-E-A-UTIFUL! I need to get a picture of my jeep up! I keep forgetting!!! I know a good place to take a picture, too...Maybe I'll do it tomorrow! I'll write down a reminder to myself. Hopefully I can go hit a trail after I pick her up from the mechanic in Ohio. How better to test out his work then to go offroading? ;D ;D ;D ;D

You can see the eyes of my coonhound glowin'! lol I'm gettin' closer... All too easy. Nice flat spot to park. Let's hope I never have to use that spare tire... Here's a side view for ya. Now I'll show you what happens when I let the dogs out. That's my coonhound, Cletus! This is my beagle, Belle! She's hawt. They're on to something. =) This is my desktop background now lol.

That's some nice flexing right there Oseh!! /hi5! I don't know if my Jeep could handle that much. And I love those tires and rims! I might paint my rims black. Sexy!
Is that rustoleum paint on the side? I need something to cover up some rust spots until I can afford to get it painted. I probably won't have that kind of money until next summer, so what do you recommend to halt further rusting?
The paint on my Jeep looks nice in the pictures I took because of bad lighting, distance, and angles. But there is sun damage and rust on the hood and top, and rust inside the driver's door hinge and the back door. I don't want anything getting worse through the winter.
Ooo...winter! We're going to have to take pictures of our beauties slingin' some snow around!

and those are old tires too, been on there for about 10+ years lol, getting new tires as soon as i get rid of my mustang, BIGGER ones , plus a 3 inch lift as soon as the mustang is gone yes it is rustoleum gray primer, i took a hand grinder and ground the rust off then sprayed the primer over top of it, but that will hold me till the moola shows up for a paintjob. AND YES! snow is coming and I cant wait to turn it brown!

I'm going to buy some rustoleum then! I read about it a week or so ago and heard it adheres very well and dries quickly.
My tires are also old, I need to start looking for a good deal to replace em. I want to get some nice ones, but I'll have to settle for what I can afford. I'm going to hit the junkyard and see if I can't find some that are in good condition on a totalled Jeep somewhere! lol The 3 inch lift will probably never happen to my Cherokee, but it is definitely one of the things I wish I could do to her. Don't they cost a lot to have a body shop do? I don't have the know-how to do it myself. Maybe if my dad helped.
That reminds me, I will probably inherit my father's brush guard and winch when he sells his Jeep! Needless to say, I've been looking for a truck for him to buy...lol

haha nice, about hte lift, kits run anywhere from $400-$3000 depending on how much lift and brand...but as for installing, suspension lifts are a bitch is what I have heard from experienced people, but im gonna try to do mine myself....as for body lifts, don't think they are difficult, thats what im about to do on mine with the shackles, ill get about a 2" lift just from the shackles then the 3"+ from the suspension lift...its gonna be hawt i used to work with a guy who as a rock crawler so Ill probly end up putting it all on by myself, a shop will charge ya about $400 from what I have heard

Bleh! That's a lot of money. =( A body lift doesn't improve performance, just looks, right?
