JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Compared to the Full Traction Lift, how much less was the OME lift?

Being a beginner to this way of life, off-roading i mean of course, I rarely come across something that i've even heard about. Of course, here in Georgia, it's not difficult to come across a great rig, or even a a school off-roading association.

That of course is besides the point. I appreciate the help and i'll have to decide the how, the what, and the when, whenever the time comes. I'm not sure if you're allowed to post prices, but if you could somehow tell me those two prices so I can do a bit of comparisons.

Thanks again,

Scott

For the prices of the OME vs. the FT lift, go to:

www.northridge4x4.com

I can highly recommend David at Northridge if you decide to purchase a lift.

As to the thermal liner...it really helped during the heat of the summer. My A/C could not keep up with the heat coming in from the top. Once I added the liner, my A/C kept up, even at lower fan speeds. It also has the side benefit of lowering the noise level. I recommend it. Just be careful dealing with the vendor...they screwed me out of a few bucks during the purchase process.

You can see my thread about the liner here:

I knew it was FL before I even saw your plates. Those screen porches were everywhere at my sis-in-laws. Actually the houses look similar to theirs before the moved to TN.

Your jeep looks great. You made all the right decisions.

Awesome looking Jeep!!

Can you describe the ride with the lift, shocks, and tires you have installed?

The ride is a bit different from stock. The springs are firmer, so there is less body roll on corners. The taller sidewall on the tires makes up for the firmer springs in terms of harshness over bumps. And the shocks dampen out much quicker than the stockers. Overall, a better ride in my opinion.

Awesome looking jeep. I am also planning on the OME lift and 35's. I have a 2door X. Any rubbing issues at all with the 35's?
