So ignoring the blatant fact that my boss straight up copied me...

Mine (white) is 2.5" suspension lift 1" body lift on 35" tires. My boss has a 3.5" suspension lift, no body, on 35" tires, so we are effectively the same total lift. He swears his is an inch taller than mine. He just installed his lift on Sunday so it hasn't settled yet either. I think hes got maybe a 1/4" which will disappears once it settles.

Nice Jeep. I think I'll have to have one one day...

Link to your build thread (or list of mods)?

As much as I want to like your rig, I have a psychological barrier to liking Jeeps with body lifts. :(

Ehh it made more sense to me. 2.5" spring lift is springs, shocks, and longer brake lines. 3.5" suspension lift is springs, shocks, brake lines, upper control arms, lower control arms, exhaust relocation, front and rear track bars, and (recommended) upgrading u joints and or full replacement of rear driveshaft. I attained the same result for a lot less $, and a lot less time by adding a 1" body spacer kit.

Just throw some roof racks on it. You've won.

His looks maybe a 1/2 inch or so taller, but it could just be the camera angle.

Build on the cheap so far (it's still rather new).

35" BFG TA/KO on 15" throw away steelies

2.5" RC suspension lift with inverted monotube shocks

1" body lift

cut factory bumper

Sway bar disconnect and larger steering stabilizer are en' route as of today and a proper steel bumper may be coming next week as I should be getting a good deal on a winch...

I understand it may not be rational, but it is what it is.

It's only money, slap a Y-link kit on there with a 6" lift and be the true ruler of your parking lot!

Get rid of it? Throw the bike on the roof racks, and tell your boss he's missing out.
