As of now I am pretty much running a bone stock 4dr unlimited auto X. I have a Shrockworks front stubby with a Warn 9.5ti and am sitting on 18" KMC Monsters w/33" Mud Grapplers. I really want to put the lift on next but am not sure if this should be the move. I have decided after much reading to go with the AEV 4.5" kit. As of now I'd say my budget is around 3k to play with. My question is should I go with the lift because there are possible driveshaft and control arm issues (which would blow my budget). Or do I regear and put a set of lockers on the rear at the same time? Any suggestions or other ideas (other than donating the $ to one of you) are more than welcome. By the way, I am not a big trail person or rock climber like most on here. All mud, all the way!!!

 

Ifn youre into mud I'd say get a budget boost. Skip the gears. Ditch the carpet and get line-xed. And buy a nice power washer. You'll have plenty of money left over to spend on beer!
