Love the look of your Jk. Looking at it gives me the look of my future goals.m I'll hopefully be cutting my fenders, stock front bumper and maybe add some wheel spacers to give it that stance (on a small budget) I noticed you didn't mention a lift, your Jk looks like it sits higher than stock. Love the thread keep it up! Be prepared for future questions about your build if you don't mind! Sub'd

Fixed up the tire carrier since my tires weren't fitting without spacers. With a little grinding and drilling I put in some longer bolts and spaced out the wheel with some steel pipe. Doesn't sit on a slant anymore

So i had a little insurance money left so i went on good old craigslist and picked up a 3.5 inch skyjacker lift. finally was able to get rid of the 2 inch coil spacers. I do recommend the 2 inch coil spacers to all the new jeepers out there that are looking for a little clearance with the stock suspension feel. Just don't expect to be flexing out with those stock shocks. So i went down to my buddies shop he works at and we started wrenching. After just a few hours we had the whole thing installed.
Also went on craigslist and bought me a hardtop. It was cheap but about an hour both ways here and back.
honestly that's all I've really got for you guys for now. Questions, comments, conserns or remarks?
