    Of course, we save the beer for the road trip home! jk!

    I doubt Geebo's even old enough to buy us that beer anyhow.

          I totally disagree . . . Beer and Wrenching is the perfect combo. I wouldn't recommend whiskey and wrenching, but the beer helps loosen up the joints so crawling around under the Jeep on the concrete doesn't hurt so bad and it's nice and refreshing, especially on a hot day. I never drank much beer until I started Jeeping . . . I was always a hard liquor guy, but there really is something about Beer and Wrenching that's just magic. We're not the chug it til you're falling down or acting the fool crowd though!

                  You will, unless you want to drop the belly . . . I think you'd be better off with your current set up vs. a new lift and having to drop the belly. Are you looking to go bigger than 33's? Seeing that you're already clearing the 33's w/out any issues, why not look into lockers first? Lockers and some armor will get you thru more trails than a little more flex. Just a thought!

                    That's exactly my thought.

                      do not drop the belly. that was the dumbest thing ever.

                      I am kinda confused. I thought you already had a 4 inch lift.

                          Having a locker is a big confidence booster . . . you don't use it all that often, but when you see the guy in front of you struggling and you are next, it sure is nice to have that little button!!!
