    We figured out the lift issue. Turns out, Metalcloak lifts are x number of inches over a Rubicon lift. Rubicon’s are 1.5” higher than any other JK, so we really got a 5” lift.

    Beautiful truck! Welcome to the club!

    For the 3.5”, you can keep stock ones, you just need to install exhaust spacers. Because this lift clearly isn’t 3.5”, I have no idea for driveshafts. It looks like the front will work once we get the exhaust spacers in.

    Oh yeah. Perhaps it’s in the future if yours too? That was our first thought, but the part numbers cross reference to the 3.5” lift. This thing is taller than my dad’s SOA YJ on 35s.

    Teaser pic. It’s a Metalcloak 3.5” lift, or so it said. It’s up about 7-8” over stock. The sway bar end links are 6.5” longer than stock. This is with the front tires sitting on the ground, the lift is not supporting the front end. Yes I know the suspension will settle, but I don’t think it’s coming down to the 3.5” that it is supposed to be. Not that I’m complaining, but my mom is 5’2”. The hood is up to her chin.

    I got a very good shipping quote, so I jumped on it. It looks like the car will once again be in my possession as of Sunday 6/13. I ordered a new fuel tank already because the old one leaked and that should be here on Wednesday 6/9.

    Very nice! Are you still planning on getting the Chief decals for it?

    Ok, since it isn’t show quality, it could still probably do $12,000. Get out and drive it some first and then make your decision, don’t just keep it in the garage.

    That truck could probably pull all of $15,000 in the right place if it is a show quality paint job.

    We were looking at the site today—46 days until the show.

    That said, there wouldn’t be a long waiting list if they weren’t worth it!

    That radio emporium website you got the pictures from is @Minuit’s site. You could get a refreshed one from him, but you may be on a waiting list for a while.

    Car show #1 of 2021 is under its belt. It was good to be going to shows again. Most shows were cancelled last year.

    Today I picked up some SEM dye for my good dash and door panels and polished the taillights. I forgot pictures.

    Thank you. Never considered it would be similar behind a V8.

    @Minuit, any ideas?
  22. 89 MJ
    How have you been doing since the last update? No more issues I hope?
  23. 89 MJ
    Did you ever come up with a price? I am moving on to starting my interior restoration.

    I couldn’t stand the rattle from the sway bar quick disconnects anymore, so they got swapped for OEM sway bar end links. I should have done that a long time ago. It is soooo much quieter now.

    Bump, my fam is looking at hotel rooms now.
