Nice!!
Anyway you can measure the travel on the front/rear shocks before you get them installed?

Thanks :beer:
Absolutely. I probably won't get to installing this for at least a week or two, but I'll do that.

What size tires and wheels are you going with?
Gonna stick with the stock wheels for now, but go back to 35" KO2's. Had them on my JK and loved them.

I know it’s been said, but it’s totally awesome they send it in that box, they should do that for more of their accessories
I dig the crate, but I wish I could buy the lift without it. Even though I got the kit for $300 less than what it retails for, I gotta wonder how much of the original price is the crate itself. I seriously doubt I'll have any use for it, but for now, it can look pretty in my garage.

Nice I’m thinking of doing the same. Between 35 and 37. I’m worried 35 may look to smal with the rubicon lifted.

I was kind of thinking the same thing, but I saw a JL Rubi at a dealership with this lift and 35" KO2s and it looked fantastic. With this particular lift and the way the fenders are, I don't think you can go wrong either way.

Sounds good. That helps me out. You going 12.50 wide?

Yup.

I knew I should've taken pictures of that Jeep. It looked great. It had aftermarket wheels, so the tires stuck out just a pinch, but the stance was good and there wasn't an obnoxious amount of space between the tires and fenders. It was balanced nicely.
