Sure I have some pictures, how many do you want? Have them with full spring lifts from 2.5 to over 4 inches
IF you are going to use 927 front and 948 rear springs its easy to do with a jack yourself to show or heres a picture of my current build
If you use a jack you can raise it until you are at 21.5 inches from middle of the wheel to bottom of the flare, that is 2.5 inches of lift or what the OMEs give you without extras
my 03 green one on the right is at 2.5 inches in this picture, for some reason rear looks low but its level. Shown with stock size tires
swapped suspensions now so its different :shrug::shrug::icon_lol:

Ah sorry. Changed over to Dropbox. Needed to update the permissions. Should hopefully be good now?

Sorry...are the upper front shock mounts for this lift the same as the factory ones? Or do I need to buy OME front shock mounts.

Or, if you don't feel like taking apart or paying for your old ones to be taken apart, you can just buy new stock ones. This is what I did.

Use the factory tops, factory isolaters etc, just remove the front setup, take new springs and shocks and what you just removed into the local shop and have them swapped out

The "plain" "standard" 2.5" of lift actually looks pretty good if you dont look at Tom's black one. lol. Then you suddenly want a higher lift.

Stock size tires dont do a 2.5" lift justice, in my opinion. Go up one size or so, and slap some gnarly looking AT's on there and it gives it a different, more "jeepy" look. I think.

Hey, that black one in the back sure is HOT, isn't it?? :mexsmoke: :happy175:

Looks funny to see how it looked at one time. On the one hand that 'mostly stock' look was really nice - on the other hand, it looks really "skinny." :party52:
