The product has been ordered for stage 1! I went with the following after a lot of input and consideration about the trails I plan to tackle. This Jeep is also my daily driver, so I was talked out of the original stuff I had picked out. The Jeep will definitely still be well built and ready to tackle some challenging trails.

LIFT
- Rubicon Express 3.5 inch extreme duty 4 link long arm with mono tube shocks
- J.E. Reel 1350 CV Heavy Duty Drive shafts
- Rubicon Express loop pipe for exhaust

GEARS
4.56

TIRES
ProComp 315/70R17 XTREME MT2

BUMPERS
Front - Warn Rock Crawler Stubby with Grille Guard
Back - Warn Elite Rear Bumper with Tire Carrier

WINCH
Warn 9.5cti

SKID & DIFF COVERS
Full skids - EVAP, Oil, Transmission, etc. & heavy duty iron diff covers

and other misc. stuff...

Thank you! Your Jeep appears to be coming a long. My next mod is Gen Right fenders, Gen Right rock rails, and Gen right skins, and a AFe high clearance exhaust. It will probably be done late March, if you want to check the thread to see what the Jeep looks like when it's done. The fenders will be a matte black aluminum.
