How do you like the Up/Down air system? I was thinking of adding that to my Jeep when I get my ARB compressor and have heard mixed reviews on it. Looking for first hand experiences.
I like it so far but havent got to take the rig out and try it on the trails yet . I also got extra parts for it so I can also connect the trailer to the system.20190428_131115.jpeg20190428_131103.jpeg1556482332196.jpeg

Installed my DIY limb risers and got my ARB awning set up. Installed a heat shield around my fuel rail and added some additional heat wrap to help keep it from getting heat soaked.
Got any pics

How did you like the road ride? I'm looking at getting a lift for my RR. Cannot decide between a 2inch or a 2 1/2inch lift.
I went 2 inch in order to avoid replacing break lines, hoses etc.. i definitely have more very noticeable body roll, and stiffer ride. I got the stiffer ride to compensate for winch, roof rack and additional gear when traveling. This is not a daily, so overall im pretty happy. One thing people seem to forget when lifting their rig is even with just a 2inch lift, loading the rack or working under the hood can become an issue. I came out of a 79 gmc jimmy on 37s with 6inch lift..everything including driving was a chore. Hope this helps.

One other thing, i definitely need spacer to stop front tires from rubbing on the inside when turning, but i also hope by pushing all four whells out will help with handling.

Awesome. Thanks. We found out (the not so nice way) that we need a lift. Bigger tires will also go in.

How big of spacers do you plan on putting on?
