T-15 Is On!!

Got my TJM T-15 on! It took an extra day because when I was washing out the radiator since I had the bumper off, somehow some dirt was keeping a hole in my radiator closed, and when I rinsed it off, I noticed some red liquid. I immediately knew what is was and my heart sunk. I was definately not happy about that. So yesterday we spent 11 hrs on the truck replacing a radiator, getting extra anti-freeze (oops) putting in some air horns and getting the bumper on. It wasn't too bad, actually didn't feel like it took as long as it did (thank god). But everything is running well and we got the Hellas on today. I'm happy about everything except for the fact that I basicly have no lift in the front now grrr... I guess I need a spacer to hold me over til i get enough $ to get some SAWs. Oh well. I'm still a happy camper. Now my truck has the get the hell out of my way look, has the get the hell out of the way sound, and has plenty of light out front Oh yeah, and I did some measuring of the Load Worrior and I believe the Hella 550s should fit perfect behind the fairing, but I want to actually see before I buy anything.

I just got mine today and will be installing this afternoon. I have Performance Products Progressive coil springs. I hope heavier bumper doesn't pull the front end down too much.

Looks great Austin! How much height do you think you effectively lost up front?
