What was done to your JK this week?

Looks good. Did you measure height before and after. ?
I like the jump up even though it wasn't much. I have a smittybilt front bumper with a winch which was way to heavy for the stock coils I went with a rock crawler lift coils are a lot stiffer and it's great very impressed but I didn't take measurements before but I ended up with about 6.5 inches between the tires and fenders and jeep is about 6'4 now only been driving on it for a few days though. You will need to realign again my steering wheel was off a lot.
Picture 1 (top picture with jeep facing right) is with 33" tires (Toyo Open Country AT2 285/75R17) with Daystar 0.75" coil spacers all around and I got exactly 0.75" all around compared to stock height...
Picture 2 (bottom picture with jeep facing right) is with the same 33" tires and Daystar 1.75" coil spacers all around and I got exactly 1.75" all around compared to stock height...
Picture 3 (jeep facing left) is what I have now with the same 33" tires and Teraflex 2.5" coil (springs) lift and I got 3" front and 2" rear compared to stock height...
Picture 4 and 5 (jeep facing left) is the space you will get (I could measure later if you want...) between tires and fenders. I was scared it would look stupid with 33" tires but I find it actually look good. The only extra weight I have in those pictures is the Teraflex HD tire carrier for the spare tire. I also updated to the Teraflex Monster front adjustable trackbar and Bilstein 5100 shocks. The AEV geometry brackets will go on next month.
Thanks to my friend Nick for the great help

Had a spare 3 hours so decided to paint the plastics. Turned out way better than I imagined. Next thing to paint is the grill... then the hood... then around the window. Might as well be a professional painter after all this!
