I'm pretty sure that with 35 inch tires and a 3 inch lift, I'll be plenty happy with what I have. Going any more than that is just not my thing, but thanks.

Alright, now I show my ignorance...lol. What is the Hypertech refer to?
I had already planned on the evap relocation, but forgot to list it in "The Plan", lol. The snorkel was a "wish list" item, the axels I wasn't sure about yet, so not in the plan, had not seen the AEV hood, just the snorkel, I'll have to look that up.
So what's up with relocating the muffler and SS? Have there been problems? The control arms were planned when I do the lift, whatever that winds up being..lol.
Thanks,
Mac

Once you have relocated your evap you can then move your muffler to a safer place. The SS relo is to protect it from hitting it against rocks by raising it up.
Make sure you do the adj control arms ASAP if you want a better ride overall.
The AEV hood is made to work with the AEV snorkel. Not cutting needed.
Good luck
Yeah, there is the daily driver aspect to be considered. I do want to make it as capable as I can, while trying to not beat myself to death riding it on the street every day as well.
Do you think a compromise between the two might be the 4.10's? I'm not really all that worried about the center of gravity being too high with anything less than a 4" lift or more, I've driven a buddies setup that was lifted about 4" with a lift, and an additional 1" body lift, and it seemed really stable, but was higher than I wanted. I will probably just go with the 3" and leave it at that.

The best thing to do is drive your JK with 4.10 after the lift and see for your self. Then decide. BTW 4.88 is better on gas than the 5.13, but 5.13 will give you a little extra ufff.

Your MPG you drop considerably if you don't upgrade your gears. Now, you could go with the 4.88, but you have a automatic I'd go 5.13.
