Shawn bought Tim's Mila's Rubicon, had it for a minute then brought it in for a retrofit. The plan was to remove the 3" lift from the old Jeep, swap his already upgraded steering compoenents from his old jeep into his Rubicon and install a 4" lift in an afternoon. Beverages may have to wait where the starting time is around 1 and only 3 people to do it although Alan and Shawn showed up a little later. Before Shot hanging on jack stands with a 2" BB(things started to happen to fast for pictures) Aftershot with 4" lift sitting on the floor. Looks pretty much the same but you can't flex a jeep on Jack stands. Ok, we did't quite meet our goal of an aternoon lift install/swap but it did happen in within a regular working day with regular breaks and evan put a new track bar in a ZJ. His old jeep was the closet thing we could find to flex off of. The brains behind this afternoon opperation were Trever, Alan, Jason Shawn and myself. We had Ryan as the waterboy. Visitors were JP, Nicki and Steve Handspiker.

lol...i see how that could have been confusing now that i think of it. TIM...Trever told me to bring it back like that and said i changed my mind after we swapped hoods (didn't feel like peeling off all those stickers so we swapped em)...lol. Can't even tell the difference besides the axles. Was gonna drop the TJ off today but pretty crappy out and i had no way back.
