I would, but that's way too much work for now. I'll get the 4WD working and see how it goes from there.

I only had 3 jack stands at the time, so I had 2 in the front and 1 on the LR. So when I went to let that RR down, it cocked on it's side, it only stayed like that for maybe 5 min, nothing was harmed.

Blocks, ah yes... I will be removing the 2" block when I get the tires on. I'd really like to get some lift springs, but money is uber tight right now since my work doesn't cover anything if you mess something up, so I had to fork out $350 for a damn wheel.
