Looks like mine spent most of its like in texas. Originally bought in virginia but made its way to texas by 30k miles so hopefully rust isnt going to be a problem.

Well marlin just filled me in with some unfortunate info. Turns out he didnt have everything in stock... :( my ome948's are shipping from washington state so i wont have all my parts untill tuesday the 23. can i put together the front assembly ahead of time? Or do i need other pieces from my current set up? I want to expedite the process so we arent in the shop all night

You could do the fronts before the rear parts come in - it's the more time consuming end anyway. Jeep will look a bit odd with the nose sticking in the air - but you can do the rear at home in the driveway as it only takes about 45 minutes or so. You can put the rear iso's in to bump it up about a half inch.

Not sure how the drag-ass rear will affect the alignment though...

You should go anyways ... and then hit the same trail next weekend (after your lift) ... you'll be floored! I can't believe how amazing these springs and shocks are despite reading that fact for years :D
