im new to the site so here's my story,im a 21 year old from yarmouth county and I traded in my truck 3 months ago for bone stock jk thinking id keep it stock because its my daily driver and do more then 100km every day, but....... that didn't last long. i had no plans on trading in my truck but i took the jeep for the weekend and signed for it the following week . Im the only one so far to do any of the work on (even tire change , and yes i work at a garage ) so if theres any tips or trick that you'd like to share feel free !

here's how it looked like when i first seen it

hated the stock lights so i ordered some rigid industries d2 lights and brackets

after one and a half months of owning it i decided stock height wasn't good enough either so i ordered a 4" skyjacker lift and some 35's

and here's the out come of boredom and ADD

Interesting choice for a lift...usually see rough country or BDS. Sits up high now, next to the stock JK. Great tires. Rotate often and alignment will keep them wearing right.

Thanks for all the good comments . The lift is for a jku I guess so it sits about 4.5 instead of 4" I have 0 shakes or drive like vibration so I'm very pleased with it had bad bump steer but the drop pitman arm fixed most of that . I've been building a utility trailer so soon more parts will be coming again
