New Toys for The JK

Since Black Friday and Cyber Monday, I have been on a spending tear for this little Jeep! My Visa sure is taking a beating! But some of the deals are so good that I just can't pass them up and these items are all on my build list, so I might as well buy them now, while I can save some $$$.

Right now, laid out all over my garage, I have my Teraflex 2.5" lift and Fox shocks sitting there. I just don't have any time to install the kit! I was planning on getting it done this past weekend, but then I got called into the hospital to do some work and that spanned into two days and 16 hours! Well, those parts aren't going to pay for themselves! I do have this coming weekend off, so I'm hoping to get the lift and shocks in on Saturday, then I'll take her out for a run at the local OHV park the following day.

In the meanwhile, I've been assembling a winch recovery kit. I've also purchased some ARB items- the flat tire kit and the tire deflator. To blow the tires back up, I bought a Smittybilt compressor. It was inexpensive and got strong ratings.

Today my Hi-Lift jack arrived in the mail. I've been collecting Hi-Lift accessories over the past couple of weeks. Tonight after work, I had a few minutes to get that jack mounted.
