They're the same ones I have. I just never needed to raise mine.

Ok. Who needs a lift when you have these. How the hell do you get the Jeep up on them!!

Big f'ing tires works best.
Actually, I have to do it in stages. I put my floor Jack on railroad ties.

Subscribed! though I had a laugh at the picture with the jeep waaaaaay up, and the floor jack that now looks like a toy!

How's the install going on the DTD?

 

[10frank9]

Also interested in this build. Any updates?

 

[jeeper52]

Ive been crazy busy with work so ive only been able to work on it here and there. As of now im ready to start installing all the new tabs and brackets. All the old mounts have been removed so i think im on the down hill slope.

Looks great! Just finished my F/R DTD and long arm install on a '14 JKUR, and agree that the old bracketry removal is the most tedious process. Looking back, glad to have taken my time and got everything ground down smooth, made for a very clean install.
BTW, those jack stands are awesome!

What did you use to cut and remove the brackets? Did you have to discharge the bypasses to do the install on the front?

 

[OscarMike2.0]

wow looks sweet. Will this be your DD? Im considering the DTD but not sure how it would do on a DD.

Thanks man, sweet looking jeep as well!! Did you do the rear lever as well?

Very impressive! My garage would not allow me to lift my Jeep that high but I sure wish I could.
