I am hoping that I can make it up to the Jambo. I may be moving out of my place that weekend. Either way we need to get together.

If your desire is to keep the factory look, you've done a pretty good job of gaining approach angle, while keeping a factory look.

If you want to maxamize approach angle, here is some inspiration for ya, with out cutting the frame rails or moving any radiator stuff:
