Pics of my TJ before, during, and after the lift
http://www.kodakgallery.com/I.jsp?c=...&x=0&y=-wkyxyd
FWIW, I got about 7.5" of lift over stock with the OME springs and 33"
tires.
And for anyone out there contemplating a budget lift kit, I would not
recommend the 4" Trailblazer lift from Rocky Road Outfitters. It was billed
as "all you need", but I ended up needing more. I would have gone the RE or
Tera route if I had realized this up front.
Here is what I have installed:
OME springs
DT shocks (3000 I believe)
Adjustable front track bar
panhard relocation bracket
transfer case 1" drop kit
SYE - tail shaft conversion
Tera extended rear sway bar links
JKS QD's in front
RE adjustable front lower control arms
Drop pitman arm
Procomp Steering damper shock
33x12.50x15 Firestone Destination M/T tires
I think I have a decent lift kit, but I would have preferred to get it all
in one kit at one time instead of how I did it piecemeal.

Looks great to me!
I think the best lifts are pieced together but it can be rather costly and
time consuming.
