Wow, Mark (Offroadme), you ARE a good guy! I mean, you've cleaned out the garage, made it and yourself available both days, and are excited about it! I have a feeling that if we finish all the lifts early enough, we may have to cut the grass or something while you relax and drink the beers and eat the steaks! (which BTW, WOULD BE FINE WITH ME!)
And hey, if you ever need help wtih your company's employee benefits, or other similar insurance needs, I'm your man!

ok. Looks like the pool is still closed, SO LET'S GO FOR THE 16TH!!!! I think that was better for everyone, right?
What time do you want us there, Mark?
And what else should I bring? I've got extra jack stands and plenty of hand tools. Do you think it would be better to bring extras so we can do things simultaneously, or not have too many extra tools laying around? I also have air tools and extra lines if you need them.
Is anyone bringing kids? I may have one or two of mine in tow for part of the day. They're young Jeepers (probably have more trail time than MOST Jeep owners out there! No joke!)
Now, who's in charge of THE WEATHER!!!

I think we should line up the jeeps, each owner starts tearing it apart, and Mark stands over us, walking from Jeep to Jeep correcting our mistakes. First one done gets a beer, last one done cuts the grass (but still gets a beer).
We'll film it and make it the newest show on Speed channel. Like those engine builder races.

well i checked the weather it says sun and 67 but it's WAY to far off to tell. the weather men are morons. kids are welcome i have 3 cats they can chase after. im 27 no kids for me yet!!! the cats are good for now
time is up to you guys if you want to start early I would say 9-10 am . this way we can get a jump and if anyone has anything else they want to do we will have the time.
Adam don't worry about the tools and the jack stands i used to be a mechanic so i have plenty of tools and air tools. i have 8 jackstands no need for anymore. just bring some beer and yourself with your lifts and we will have some fun.

wahoooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!
I've always wanted to participate in a lift party. And to be one of the beneficiaries is even better.
I'd prefer not to bring my kids, but it depends on the home schedule. Thanks for the open invite for them though.

ummm so I might even order a Track bar from Quadratec (because it will be here in like one days time hahaha) because I am soo excited about this...
Anyone have a sugestion ?? is the Tereflex front HD one really worth the $$ or is the JKS one more then enough as is ??
I really wasnt going to get one till farther down the road but I just got a bouns at work today woohoooo so I might pick one up so I dont have to worry about anything at all...
Front adjustable would be what I would get... I dont need the rear one really.. do I ??

My understanding is that with the 2.5" TF coil lift, we don't need an adj trackbar up front. Right? It's because (correct me if I'm wrong) the lift isn't high enough to throw it out of alignment. Plus, doesn't the front bracket help reposition the axle? Please, educate me!
