If you get tired of making room for both of I could take one off of your hands. I know it must be tough looking at both of those all of the time. I have room for one here or both of them if you don't want them anymore. Just let me know when I can pick them up.

I installed the hellcreek 4" lift today and also added the 2.5 inch extend shackles. Well with the shackles and the lift the fj was way to high and drove like a tank. Went back down to the stock shackles and driving is much more enjoayable and the look is what I was hoping for. So far I have been very impressed with the hellcreek suspension.  Thanks larry for your needed good advise.

Beautiful, that'll turn some heads. I'm glad to hear it worked out and you're happy with it. It looks super Deryl.

Yes you 'd gain a little more flex but its not worth it for road safety. If they come out with a disconnect that would be worth getting. Thats whats keeping me from tossing mine on the 80.

If you are talking about the Hell Creek lift it was $650.00. That included, shocks, u-bolts, busshings and springs.
