Man, it's going to be a long year for you! At least you have some time to try and find some of your wanted mods on the cheap.

You might want to switch to the Rubicon, then on your list add new gears. Everyone here will tell you to regear with a minimum of at least 5.13 gears...


But good luck to ya.

I like the way big jeeps look i will probably go off road oncein a while but it will mainly be a daily driver. So i dont need the rubicon for the locker, and im not going to regear until i drive it and see what kind of gears i think it needs.

before anybody says anything im not looking for prius type of mileage and i dont car how impractical it is. not trying to sound like an ass, I just know people are gonna get on me for building a big jk just for the road.

and if there is something i failed to put on my list let me know.

Nice list I don't see why you need the body lift though.

Good luck to you and have a good Holiday.

x2 on the body lift, leave that one out. Rubicon would be good to get Dana 44 under the front. Even on pavement that Dana 30 will be crying with 37's.

I know I know my husband said the same thing about the body lift, but i like the look it gives it, and it makes it a little bit bigger for a small amount of money.
