Just ask @cosine he knows!
Prepped TNT customs rock sliders for paint tomorrow. I've got to get the skins put on first but I want to get these painted as soon as I can. I've got a garage full of parts to put on so much more prepping and painting to come.

Got the Nexen Roadians installed today. So far, I'm really liking these tires, they howl a bit, but, not as bad as I thought they would and they ride nicely as well. They'll ride better once I drop the PSI in them a bit (the shop filled them to 42). I even hit some slick patches where it was a shaded area and not all of the snow and ice has melted yet, and these gripped and kept right on going.

Sadly though, I've gotta take them back and get some of them re-mounted. I was intending for the claw-like "beast" sidewalls to be facing out...The tire shop was short-staffed and extremely swamped today, so, they missed that detail and I now have mismatched sidewalls on the Jeep. The driver's side has the matching "machine" sidewalls, but, the passenger side has one of each design. *laughs*

Look nice and Beefy! Those are not going to be fun to paint but it will be worth it in the end. Very cool

Installed the LOD Destroyer steps/sliders. Not a bad install. Everything lined up just right. Also, Installed all the optional bolts to make it very sturdy. Very happy with way it looks.

Yeah, this is something to watch out for on the Falken Wildpeak AT3W’s as well - one side of the tire has more aggressive look than the other. Need to make sure the shop faces em’ out the right way! 👍

Not much to see, but I swapped out the lower control arms for the Mopar lift ones.
Took about 2 hours taking my time. Steering has improved!

Looking back, I don't think there's a better way to spend $80 :)

Agreed. I read a bunch of posts before I picked them up. They've been sitting in my closet since last January. I also have the revised cast iron steering box on the shelf...not in a hurry to do that now.

Rides better than stock. No, it's just the Adventure lift. I went with Fox shocks.
I was looking at that kit that comes with just the fixed lowers and track bar front and track bar bracket for rear with the fox 2.0
