No way. Matt and I know the GM extremely well. His step daughter Katie just had a baby girl.

Default Southwestern US Border - Big Fence

Thought this was very interesting ---> https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/show...936#post936936 . Amazing what other folks in our country have to contend with in terms of personal security - the fence helps to protect them from banditos.

Need some advice! I have done all the work to my Jeep thus far and loved every minute of it. As a matter of fact, I may be installing a Benpak 2 post lift in my third garage bay at home. However, I think I'm not going to attempt to install the 5.13s and ARB lockers since I never done it before. Has anyone had any of the local offroad shops (Rocket City Offroad in Huntsville or 4 Wheel Parts in Nashville) install new gears in their JKs? Does anyone have any recommendations?

I've had them do a lift for me and i thought they did a pretty good job. I'd read some on the forum though...some say that it isn't too hard.

I have all my work done at Offroad Connection in Fultondale. He installed my 5.13s and was the lowest price in the area. Phone # 205/841-2493. Ask for Keith. He also has adapters to use regular driveshafts in the JK. Saved me alot.

My neighbor had his ProComp lift put on his truck at 4 wheel parts in Nashville. They did a great job. Only issue was distance to drive and had to go back up for the followup so they could recheck all part to make sure they were still tight and vehicle was still aligned. Something they like to do after so many miles after an install. Cant speak on how they do on Jeeps.
Rocket City is knowledgable but they are really into rock custom crawling stuff and their opinions on how we should mod our Jeeps are little different than theirs due to the applications they use most of their rigs for.
My neighbor also had Rocket City price out a regear and locker ofr his TJ, Rocket City was cheapest.
I personally have never used them, then again I dont have a lift. yet.......

That's a nice way to put it. Based on my several conversations with them over the past year, I haven't done one thing right with respect to my JK mods.

They did do a good job mounting and balancing my 35's, and for a very reasonable price.
