Thats what I was thinking, just needed a second opinion.

I'm also really debating on getting a set of Reid Knuckles, I'll already have everything apart while doing the ball joints and moving the tie-rod up 1.5" would be nice.

Not really a fan of the word dumping. How about plunking?
I guess its really my personality. I don't like to do things over again so as I work on different components of the jeep I try to put together the right parts and do it once. So if my lifestyle affords me a little more disposable income than others, I'll consider myself blessed.
I also condone this behavior when I see what some of the other folks are spending. Hemi say what?

Now back to the business at hand. I checked clearance for the knuckles, my only hesitation is that it will not clear my 15" wheels. Thoughts?

Thats exactly it. I am so upset with a minor flaw in the shrockworks bumper and am looking to get rid if it because of that. It just makes a little too much contact with the fenders and is rubbing out the powder coat.

I saw the post about the headliners. Is that Sound Coat of Burt Dr. in Deer Park. If so, they are a customer of mine as well. MAybe I can call Jill and get and discount.
We've been using their scraps to insulate our work vans for years now.

Yup! Talk to Sandy about the headliners (or Dan the engineer; he's an H1 guy).

Where do you work?

That was me in my Jeep... After being asked a few hundred times what "that color is?", I had pixel decals make a set of hood decals that say Red Rock. When they ask, I just point.
