Meet "Pepe the Love Tractor" Stage One Completed
it was a loonnng wait,
She went in with 255 miles and still on her original first tank of gas from the dealer.
Stage One is Complete with the following mods....
Mopar 4.5 inch Long Arm Kit, Dealer Installed
(Lifetime Powertrain Still 100%!!!)
37x12.50-17 inch B.F.G. KM2's
17x9 Mickey Thompson Classic Locks
Weather-Tech Full Interior Jeep Liners.
I found a great "lift friendly" dealer with Town and Country Chrysler, THANKS JKKAT, and RUBYDOO!!!!
Casey of the Silver Team, was great to work with, very reasonable, and just very cool! The 4x4 specialist Ron, is nothing short of a 4x4 Doctor. He is very knowledgeable, fast, and did a tremendous job. THANKS GUYS!!!!
I kinda dropped the ball on the before and after, but I did take a bunch of shots of "Pepe the Love Tractor" next to a stock Rubi.

It looks real nice. One thing though, in the after picture it looks like your stock front lower control arm mount is still attached. Didn't they cut it off?

I'm sure, if they just missed it, they will address it, when I go in and have the bolts tightened.
The lift was installed for $1000.00 plus tax and about $60 dollars in misc parts.... think it was $1160 total.
thanks everyone!!!!

great lift. hate to break it to you though but any dealer part starting with a 'P' (as in the Mopar 2 and 4.5 inch lifts) in the part number is considered performance and is not covered under dealership lifetime warranty. this has been discussed in other threads.

I just called R.E. they said that in the instructions it notes that the removal of the front lower control arm stock mount is optional, and it is completely aesthetic. I am not crazy about the way that it looks... obviously most people aren't, which is why R.E. suggests removing it. I will talk to the boy's about it, Thanks!
