Finally had a few hours to get the IronMan lift on today. LOVE IT! Rides better than the factory did. Saw an idea on another thread of trimming off the top of the running board and putting it back on to cover up the unfinished look when you remove them. That'll be great till we decide on fabing up some sliders or just buying some. Snorkel didn't make it on the shipping container from Australia but will be here next month. But couldn't be happier with the ride and look. Thanks to Mark at IronMan for all the help.

Looks good, nice choice.

It was probably my build thread with the trimmed running boards...I'm installing OPOR sliders tomorrow, I'll post if they clear what's left of the running boards.

Looks great! Did you swap out the rear airbags?

You don't by chance live in northern Ohio, do you? I was near Toledo yesterday and spotted a lifted GX on US-23...don't see many lifted RX's around here...in fact, I NEVER see them! Same color as yours...

Thanks man. I did swap out the bags. Located in North Georgia just below Chattanooga.
 
Thanks man. Ended up with 285/70 Toyo Open Country A/T 2. I have had them on a few Wranglers in the past. They are quiet, don't track and clean out great.
 
Look forward to seeing the sliders Brian.

I posted one pic in my build, more info and pics to come...

But they clear the trimmed running boards! Makes for a nice clean look.

Can't remember if you've mentioned it, but where did you source the Ironman parts? How did you secure the rear coils once the airbags were gone? Thanks!

I got set up with Mark direct at IronMan. Used the complete MetalTech rear kit for the springs.
