So here is my 2013's transition so far. Purchased on Dec 27, 2012. Lift installed on Feb 16 2013.


At the Dealership


Swapped Wheels/Tires (285/70/17), 1.5 in Spacers, SmittyBilt XRC Rock Sliders


New Wheels Installed MB TKO 17's (TKO Centercaps)


After 2.5 TF Coil Lift, Bilstein shocks, and Chaos Centercaps added

Next I'm looking at adding adjustable track bar, quick diso's, and front bumper. What do you all think would be a good bumper? Im considering either the Warn Rock Crawler Stubby, the OR-Fab Stubby with winch mount and stinger, or the Rampage Front Recovery Bumper.

Cheers

 

Looks great!

 

Looks great! Welcome to the forum.

 

I have a ACE engineering stubby with a stinger. Winch ready and tabs for shackles. It's 1/4 steel and price is nice too.

 

Yeah, that ACE stinger is nice. My wife HATES the look of stingers, but I'm trying to sway her

 

Nice jeep. I have those same rims, did you just call discount tire and order the chaos center caps? I like that look much better

 

I recommend the LoD Armor-Lite mid-width bumper with bull bar. It's stamped and light weight.

I also recommend Front Adjustable Lower Control Arms and Adjustable Track Bar. This will correct any flightyness you may experience.

 

Yes, I just had DT order them, $10 each, and I kept an original on the spare. Love the look of the chaos caps!

 

I'll have to take a look at the LoD. I drove 250 miles after the lift install with no steering issues or flightiness at all. It drove like a dream! With that said, I am definately planning on getting an adjustable TB, and doing all 8 arms at some point. Also want some discos..

 

Checkout the Smittybilt XRC M.O.D. bumper. good thickness and lots of options. I just put it on about a month ago and was very impressed with it. I bought the bull bar with it but have decided to take it off and go with the bigger stinger that they offer instead. Now just waiting on shipping.
