Hello All,
I've stalked through the forums for sometime now, but yet to ever make an account to this day. I got a 2dr JK a few months back and I am looking to make my first few modifications. Only problem is, I lack friends with any mechanical knowledge or any off roading experience.
I may be posting in the wrong sections, but figured that posting in the California forums I may be able to get to meet some new people in process and maybe join future runs when I am ready. (I'm in the LA area)
Cutting to chase, I am looking to get my first lift. I wanna run 33 or 35" tires. At the moment I'd like to keep a budget, but I understand there are lots of things for me to get. (Parts wise) now for the real question. I've never done any mechanical work on a car. Is this a project I can attend to by myself with a helping hand or should I spend the extra $ and get a shop to do it?
Thanks all in advance
