Awsome stuff Joe!
Comaing back from dinner tonight, I saw a truck pulling a trailer with 3 lifted JK's on it... one of wich has a giant Superlift sticker on the door, couldn't see the others very well though.

If you have to ask what it is or what it does, you don't need it, and you will need help to install it!

LOL...That is called "Mickeys Hot tub" I drove out under my own power, however, due to the wonderful problem of our auto trans sucking air when at extreme angles, I had the guys put a "tug rope" on the front bumper. The first time, I was almost all of the way out, when the trans sucked air, and it was just like pushing in the clutch and I slammed all of the way back down in the tub and almost went over backwards. Kinda freaked me out, so I had the guys put a strap on the front to help hold it down when I was coming out. It was fun though.....  The Jeep worked really well the rest of the week, we put about 3/4 of a quart more trans fluid in it and the cavitation problem went away.

They worked fairly well. Truth be known, I am REALLY spoiled with my Competition M/T Baja Claws. Those are hands down the BEST tire I have EVER wheeled with. But for overall street driving combined with wheeling "easy" trails, I like them..

LOL, If you have seen how I REALLY wheel, you would understand.....  As for rolling the JK, Well, yeah, I would have been pissed, but it would have been at myself. You cant go out and wheel fairly hard trails and expect nothing to happen. Expect the worse, and be happy when it DOESNT happen. I had FULLY planned on at least smashing one piece of sheetmetal. I was happy when it didnt happen. But truth be known, I was being pretty easy on the new guy....
