too poor to wheel... :(

I have had this 4 inch lift sitting in my house for almost a month now... so today I was going to go to my brothers house and use his heated garage to install the back today and the front tomorrow....
well he wasn't ready for me today so I decided to get my cold weather gear on and do the back half in my driveway!
there was ice on the ground that I tried to shovel away to make it warmer but as the day went on it melted to water.... so I was working ontop of a puddle and my coveralls are soaking wet! but 3.5 hours later I finished! except I have one rusted shock bolt that I need to get removed so I can put the new shocks on. I will do that tomorrow in the garage! my air hose was cold and so it broke when I tried to move it and so all the work was done by hand and not with power tools!
The previous owner has already installed a 2 inch budget lift that came off but the following items were already on the jeep so I didn't have to install them:
4 inch bumpstops, rear track bar relocation bracket, tranny drop down brackets.
The rear track bar bracket that came with my lift is not as well built as the one that was on the jeep so I am ok with that! its held on with 2 extra bolts but I would still love to weld it on.
I forgot to take before hand pictures but I do have some from when I bought the jeep that I added to show just how it sat.
The last pictures was when I bought it and the other three are from today...
P.S. if anyone needs OEM springs and a two inch lift get a hold of me!
