Holly Jesus, I know you had a lot of time in your rig but not that much. Impressive build for certain and am kind of jealous, as i am very interested in the suspension more!

Since we have an opportunity for a little conversation here that doesn't entail someone asking about what lift to purchase, I'd like to ask........1) have you rolled your jeep, and 2) does something like that video scare you, or is that just a ho-hum Saturday afternoon wheeling with TheDirtman?

Yes I have rolled the jeep and that video is nothing special. Mid level trails for me.

3.8 with the 6 speed, no speed demon but does ok. Worst thing is that I live up a 7% grade for about 4 miles and I max out at about 60 mph in 4th gear on that stretch.
