blubaja Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 I can't tell if you have the chassis done yet or not. It looks like it's sitting a little low tho. There are different parts in that kit form the older versions. The latest one, that release, has lift spacers that would have it sit a little higher than in the pics. Snorkel looks awsome!
