"JalopJeep" (JalopJeep)

I used to only ever post up on JeepForum when I had an issue, in fact I was extremely active there up until just over a year ago. Havent been back for a lot of reasons. Being in college without the direct resources of my parents house is kinda an inconvenience (AIR TOOLS!!! PB BLASTER!!! MAP GAS TORCHES!!!) so this was my first time posting on Oppo for tech advice.
It's looking like I may just have it towed to the local Jeep dealership (GASP!!!) but we have free towing inside 50mi and all the techs at the dealership are Jeep guys who wheel and they know I (usually) know what I'm doing. Nice as can be. I'll know you're all so entrenched in this riveting tale so I'll keep you guys updated. Just wanna get the ol gal back on the road.
Also this is how these massive storms have made me feel lately.

Do you like the lift? That's the one I want for mine.

People will dog on it a ton on forums and such, but I put it on midway through my senior year of HS (Im now 23 and about to graduate college) and aside from some slight sagging of the rear leafs (which was expected because I went AAL instead of full packs, but for 225$ for a full kit you can't beat it.). Coils up front got a little soft but I could stand to use some hockey puck bump stops anyways. Their customer service is top notch and have been awesome to deal with. They're also liberal with sending stickers! Lol. But this is what the lift can do with 31 MTs on 15x8s with 4" backspaced rims, sway bars removed (may be 4.5 I can't recall at the moment)
EDIT: I forgot this was on stock canyon rims

Rough Country is great. I also ran their 3" AAL for a while. That, plus an Aussie locker in the front and swaybar disconnects == awesome.

Still haven't made any headway. I've been busy as shit with school. Luckily me and my buddies' schedules match up so I always have a ride to class. Not having a car SUCKS.
