Progress at last

Hello all
so I finally got most of my parts in for my ranger upgrade...
Over last weekend I installed 4" RCD suspension lift, 3" body lift and 3" shacke lift for the rear, 33x12.5x15 tires on Ion 174 15x10 -38mm offset rims, and New leaf spring bushings. Took it this past week for an alignment... it's great I love it! I still need the shifter extension, extended brake lines, new manual hub locks, and reinstall the front bumper if I decide to... I'm considering having my drive shafts lengthened... I'm gonna include a few before and after pics for you guys...

top and hood have lost the clear coat luster unfortunately and the previous owner smacked the drivers fender a little... the top front corners have a little rust and the rear fenders just over the wheel the same but overall shes nice...
thanks

Looks good. The down side of BL is all the space you need to fill in between the bumpers.
