    I recently helped install one. It looks like one of the best lifts I have seen. I believe I have a new favorite lift. i have heard nothing but good things about it.

    There's always deals on flights less than install charges but not too many on lift installs especially those done right while having fun LOL.

    Very nice. I've been really happy with mine. You should be too. You can down load all the instructions off MC site under the "How to" tab highlighted in blue. Then click on Instillation Instructions Then chose your product. Easy to follow. The support was also good.

    Not sure if you're serious, so I'll give you benefit of the doubt.

    For some people it's race cars, making mods to increase performance for strip or track. For us it's making mods to increase performance off road. Whether it's to complete more difficult obstacles, or in some cases to increase payload for longer trips.

    The big difference in most of us and race cars is that we have to drive our rig home when we're done. So we usually go overboard on strength to ensure an breakdown-free trip.

    Now others, it's because they want their Jeep to "look" a certain way. Nothing wrong with that either, looks are important when I build my Jeeps too. :)


    Now if you're just being sarcastic, then..... well, you know.... :D

    As long as you have a 7 slot grille and some round head lights (sorry yjs) you will never lose the jeep identity
