    We could always do the lift AT Moab. That's where my lift was done.

    Hahahaha no worries Sir Dub, if the brackets dont get here in time for me to install them before I head down then I wont be lifting this trip.

    It's not so much the difficulty as the fact that, from an engineering standpoint, dropping the front axle is way more of a PITA than it has to be...it just wasn't designed for frequent maintenance.

    If you can convince/sucker a buddy to help you when it comes time to drop the brackets and center axle section, you'll find the project a lot easier. Plan for a full day, especially the first time.

    ...maybe get in touch with Melissa over at F/book VX.

    She is looking for Front Cladding.

    I gave her a heads up that you have one.

    I agree! I can drive someone else's truck while a few of you hold on!
    Ask forgiveness, not permission.
