Thanks guys,

and since there are rocky mountains here as well, I tried to see how the systems flexes but those tire are'nt meant for that, I've got a good set up of wheel and tire on my way for that kind of terrain.

but here is one shot with some flex.........more pics when i run m/t tires :thumbsup:

Those tires are sweet!

The whole package looks damn good, but the tires really make it stand out.

That is a sick looking Jeep! Well done!!

Is the double throw down kit more for jumps/high speed driving? Or just for heavier applications (ie: 6.1L Hemi)?

Its a coil over conversion. Coil overs have superior performance than standard coils. They are fully adjustable, generally have much more travel, and can be fine tuned to get the exact spring rate that you want. While they are great for higher speed desert driving, they are also heavily used by rock crawlers.

I've been looking at the single throw down and was just curious what would be the benefit of a double throw down. Im a big fan of coilovers having seen them on several serious rock crawlers :thumbsup:

The 38s look fantastic on the 2 door too!

my understanding is that the single coilovers are more for rocks and big articulation at slowish speeds. (although they are aparently great on the street) the doubles are better for high speed rough terrain more like dune running and rallying, even a few jumps. but this is only what i can gather no one has given a definate difference so u would be curios to know aswell.

Anybody know anything about those differential sliders? Custom? I know most say to just change the covers, but the sliders have always seemed like a good idea to me.

Look like rock jock 60's which come with an AR 400 (I think) diff slider. Could be wrong though.
