No no - I really need to overcompensate for something.

Dude.....................There is something wrong.......Something Very Wrong with you. You will be ridiculed and assaulted....Perhaps even shot if you do this. You may tag along behind all your buddies with their H2s with the 26s and the Shark Tanks in the Back, but you will never be accepted because you bought a better vehicle than their's for $40,000 less. Seriously though, Guys are on waiting lists for these. If you want a 4X4 City Cruiser buy a Magnum AWD.

The funny things about this thread is:

1) You guys think he's serious
2) You guys don't think 2whl drive JK's arn't gonna get the "bling" treatment as soon as Coolio or 56 Cent gets his JK out for a day in the hood and it's in a video
3) You guys think he's serious
4) You don't see the potential bling similarity between the H2 and the JK 4 door (same chrome wheels and gas cap lids ...but even better there are chrome hood hinges in the quadratec catalog !!).



99 percent of 4x4 drivers don't wheel them...

if you guys saw someone with a drawing like this, you would probably kill the driver

i wouldn't kill the driver, but i'd die a little inside.

do you want to lower it to strip race it? if you do, that's cool. JP did a spread some time ago about a guy that races his CJ. he pulls sick numbers...under 10, i think. but if that's what you want it for, i'd go with a TJ rather than the JK. the 4.0 motor, stroked to 4.6, with that cast-iron block is perfect for supercharging. and there are already kits available for it.

Dude, learn to relax, seriously. Don't get your panties all in a lather over this, you'll be OK.

I want to lower it so I can go a little bit faster on the highway and not have to worry about flipping the thing
yes I have been on two wheels before on a regular road turning with my '87
it was pretty scary and I dont want it to happen again sorry
plus it stabalizes the car at higher speeds around 85mph etc...
