I been here long enough to finally post some pics of my truck. It was stock when I bought it about 8 years ago, and then I went and did all kinds of mods to it to get it to where I could drive on the highway, and still make it through the Rubicon trail. In the summer of 08 I rolled it while deer hunting, and finally got it put back together to where its usable again.

Here is a list of the mods I can remember so far:
4" procomp suspension lift
2" body lift
Bentup front bumper (since modified to move shackle hangers to the front and new tubing by Rock Solid)
homemade rear bumper and rocksliders
ARB air lockers front & rear
4.88 gears
35" Goodyear MTRs
Milemarker 9500 winch with synthetic winch rope
stainless skid plate
optima yellow top battery
Taurus 2 speed electric fan
mean green alternator
ARB snorkel
1000 watt inverter under drivers seat
KC Daylighters
4-tractor lights underneath front & back
CB in place of old useless dash slot
CO2 tank
spare tire crank rod

Looks good man; also good call on moving the shackles up; looks like they belong there.

Putting the shackle hangers underneath was a bogus design the first time around as they ruined my approach angle and were always hitting the rocks. Was a lot of work to torch them out, fill the holes, get them trimmed flat and weld them in the new spots. Now all I need is an exo-cage!
