I have a four door that I'm slowly building. I don't know a lot about automobiles so I've had DK 4wheeler over in Moline do my lift, then had 33's and new wheels put on at Discount Tire over on Elmore. Here's a link to the gun rack I'm looking at getting for my AR's when I go to the range.
Great Day Quick-Draw Overhead Gun Rack for UTV's with 35 in. - 42 in. Rollbar Depth-QD853OGR at The Home Depot
I don't know if they have it in stock in the Davenport store, or if it's an online order only. Plus I need to measure because it looks like they have different lengths.
Was going to order it today, along with the Barricade Rock Crawler bumper with winch plate, but my Jeep is acting up and I think I have a bad injector. So, off to the dealership in the morning. Putting the purchases on hold till I find out how much this problem is going to cost me.

BTW that gun rack looks to be adjustable. Also it says online only but will ship to a local store for free.

found Teraflex 4303420 Brake Upgrade Kit for $608.22... Hmm maybe I will reconsider my options, since I just noticed the Teraflex Big Rotor Kit does not come with pads.

I've looked at ACE, AEV, Poison Spyder and a few other bumpers. The wife and I are trying to buy a house in Walcott right now so I'm on a pretty tight budget. I think I'm going to hold off on any more mods till I can get out and do some wheeling with Mississippi Valley Jeepers or one of the other groups this Spring and see what my Jeep really needs. Also, to see what everyone else has and get some ideas from them. Taking the Jeep into the dealership this morning. Hopefully won't be too expensive to fix.

Do I need these? I know my buddy mounted his MTRs and needed no balancing on his slabs. I will also be running 37" MTRs with Slabs.
Or can I just go to a Sears to have them balanced or a local Jeep JK friendly location?
