Looks great.
How much did your axles shift? After a month or so, I went ahead and centered my front with an adjustable JKS track bar. Although the Teraflex rear track bar relocation bracket was an absolute pain to install, it did keep my rear axle nicely centered.

That looks really good.

That's one of the lifts I'm considering.

How much lift did you get out of it?

Not too much shift on the axle but I might get a new front trackbar. I think I will use the rear bracket for a while. I ended up with 4" front and close to 3 7/8" rear. I guess it will settle a little bit. At first we thought we messed up with those measurements but that's what I got. We measured 5 locations before the lift and 5 after the lift without moving the jeep so it would be accurate. I am a little worried about my drive shafts with 4"

Wow - I got about 1" less Front and Rear than you, and we both have 2 doors with metal bumpers and a winch on the front.

Mine hasn't settled at all so far (about 2,500 miles).

Guess you can never predict how the lift will turn out till you put it on.

I double checked the measurements it surpised the heck out of me. Joe with Teraflex told me to expect about 3" with the 2dr. Did you get yours aligned after the lift?
