where are you at? for lift, just enough to run 35's, not sure on how much exactly yet. the tires im ussing temporarily are 35 bfg mts, and once i burn them out ill got to a interco tire. for now, im just runing the gears that are inthe axles, no idea on what they are cause im gonna go up on them anyway so i never bothered to look. it really wasnt that bad. took a 13/16, 11/16, 1 1/8, 5/8, 1/2, i think thats it. on the driver side arm, i couldnt get it separated from the frame, so i droped a commalong on it, and hooked to the side of my trailer its sitting on, poped right out.

well, a close up of the master mechanic herself 
she pulled everything on the passenger side herself except the radius arm, and i had to break the pivot bolt loose, but she did it all. 
she digs the tires, but she digs the 35's better

I had to show this to my gal to try n motivate her a little. "See honey all the guys have their gals help em". I don't think its gonna work though. On my 94 sas it took six inches to clear 35's. 10 inches to clear 40's. pics in my gallery.
