im having the shop do it on Tuesday when they put the tires on. i was planning on doing it myself but jackie was very concerned about it cause its my daily driver and didnt want me to screw it up lol (i probably would have been fine but you know what they say happy wife happy life) so she convinced me to spend the extra money to have the shop do it. there is place near me called sammys auto repair but they are better known as "the jeep store" because the owner builds and wheels his own jeep so alot of the long island jeep guys bring thier jeeps to him. they are gonna do it for me.

I love how he fails to mention I'm helping pay for it and that we don't have a garage or a flat driveway to do this work in. It's his daily driver and our commutes are in the opposite directions. If we need more time we have no where to keep the jeep and no way for him to get around. If it was summer and I was done with work for two months I wouldn't worry as much. :p

Yes I was about to mention that. Jackie bought not only my 35s but also paid for the lift and the extra money to have the the shop do the lift with her overtime money from teaching, thank you sweetie : )

Windshield

my first mod to my jeep was actually not by choice. after having my jeep a month i developed a crack in the windshield from a rock hitting it. it spread across almost half the windshield in a day. luckily, a quick call to my insurance company got me a replacement windshield with no out of pocket cost : )
