Ordered the 4.5" Long Arm kit from Rough Country today, also got the SYE kit.
Eta friday, vaction starts sat. on the hunt for tires.
Will get pics up this weekend before I take it apart and start on it.

Never ordered a complete kit before, always pieced my lifts together over time. Now
I got it all at once. Can't wait for friday to drool over all the new pretty parts.

Make sure you got all the odds and ends, not too much sucks more than having to stop a project cause you don't have the right bolt/etc. Check the needed tools too.

Sounds like a great vacation.:D

got 24/7 access to nuts and bolts and other everyday needed goodies.
Work for a Freightliner dealership. I just love the perks of the job.

The only vacation that is better is having it done and spending it in the XJ wheeling :D

Well sorry for the lack of pic's and updates. But the Cherokee is up and moving
on it's own power as of last night. Had brake line issuses that took allday to
remedy and multiple trips to parts store. LOL
Still got a few things to tighten up should hit the street today.

Girl friend loves the fact that you can see the Long Arms when you look at it.
She is more excited about driving it then I am I think.......
She kept me feed and under the Cherokee from day break till dark.
Even made parts runs at the drop of a hat. Witch was awesome!!
I think she has front and rear bumpers already picked out LOL. I know she is drooling over the winchesand even talking about how we need to get roll bars as
soon as we can..

Well rained last night so will be a slow start today, but at least it's not 90 dgerees
like sun. thru tues. a nice mid 60's feels great out.

The lift went on pretty easy it's self. Everything fit nice. The only real issuses where breaking
the old bolts loose. Had 3 that really ate up a lot of time. Without the kids around
it took me a while to get them off.

Well back at it. Tighten everything up ,top off the fluids give it a good going over. Oh still got a old braket to cut off, then done

SEE YA

Great! That's a lot of work getting all that done, but oh what a change it makes in the ride, and the look. Looking forward to the after pictures. :popcorn:
