as much as i miss my yota...i really...really always wanted a jeep. they just make sense to me. this thing's gonna be my dd which is why i really wanted the geometry of a la set-up for road worthiness on top of the benefits off road.

though i'm new to the jeep thing, i'm not new to the wheelin thing. i lived, grew up on guam and had a toyota truck sas'd. ran the gamut of 31" tires all the way through 44" boggers with many lift combo's.

well...i no longer have the welder/plasma cutter or garage/shop set-up to work in that i had on guam but definitely have the know how to assemble lifts. it's relieving to know that there are bolt-on la systems available as the welding was steering me away from a la kit. i prefer...or should i say, always do my own work, so knowing that i can bolt up a long arm kit is gonna seal the deal for me.

thanks jk forum...i'm likin this place.
your choices are limited to the Fulltraction bolt on and the Offroad Evolution
