Thats a great build list...

and thats a gorgeous motorcycle!

My wife won't let me have one...she works at the hospital and has seen way too many people after they crash it...plus the way I drive...it wouldn't be a good idea.

I haven't had many chances to try them out yet, but in the few off road runs I've made with them, my pro rock 44 and 60 are extremely better than I can explain, my Jeep handles better and maybe part of it is the 37's and 5:13 gearing but it feels like a whole new Jeep!

i've got the 3.6 with the manual transmission, it drives like a tall go cart!


i have little left on my dream wish list, ATX Slabs and maybe long arms and possibly coilovers if I can see how much it would improve the type of off roading I do

I just can't say enough good things about my experience of swapping out the factory stuff for the Dynatrac d44 and d60

Unless your going bigger than 37's 5:13 or even 4:88's would be nice

Matthew
I am currently running 35's but will be going with 37's and flat fenders. I flip flop between 5.13's and 5.38's but my boss has 5.38's with 37's and loves it. I'm running the auto and he has the 6 speed. I do basically zero freeway driving and trailer my Jeep to Moab so high RPM's isn't really an issue for me.

Well dream list would be ls conversion with pro rock 60's front and back with 40" mtr or nitto tg with a either new or modified stock cage and a rear winch plus an offroad trailer with a roof top tent. I think that's all.

Reality list hopefully go pro 3+ silver and some sliders

I spent a metric F ton in 2013!!!

But...for 2014...there are some big ticket items left to buy.

The list:

- Tires
- Gobi Roof Rack
- Light bars for said Gobi Roof Rack
- Arb Awning to mount to said Gobi Roof Rack
- Probable regear to accompany aforementioned tires



If I can get that done this year, I think I'd be very happy with the status of the Jeep!
