LOL!! Thanks and yes, you can be sure that I'll be spacing them out. Although I am getting a few parts from our sponsors, my wallet won't be immune to this new Jeep.

Yeah, I've already got a few "goodies" from our sponsors that I will be installing right off the bat and you can be sure that I will be doing very detailed write-ups for all of them with tons of hi-res photos.

Right off the bat, I will be building up my JK the cheapest I can to fit 35" mudders and make it proform well both on and off the pavement. To do this, I already have a TeraFlex 2.5" BB with shock extensions ready to go on. I'm hoping this is all I will need to do this but if necessary, I will most likely add a 1" Body Lift to make up any difference that is needed. I'm currently in the process of looking for a tire sponsor but if I can't find one, I will most likely buy a set of TrXus M/T's and install them on a set of black steel wheels. And, if I run into any handling issues, I will try to address them one at a time so that I can isolate the cause specifically and provide this information to all of you

As far as bumpers go, I currently have a WARN front bumper and will be getting an LoD front and rear bumper tire carrier on Tuesday. I will be sure to install all of them and of course, I will provide detailed write-ups for each.

Last but not least, I have a WARN Power Plant in my garage ready to be installed but for the sake of budget mods, I will most likely try to pick up a basic 8000 lb. WARN unit or something comperable and run it first.

After running this setup for a while, I will upgrade to a 3" coil lift and start the process all over again and eventually, I'll move up to a 4"-6" lift to sit on 37's. When all is said and done (5-10 years from now), I hope to have the most complete index of JK installation write-ups, maintenance tips and useful information you could ever hope for on the internet.
I have been soaking my hands, let me know if you need them to model for you. They haven't been fully discovered yet so they work for real cheap!

Congratulations! Oh did anyone hear thew news, strangest thing, HELL froze over today!

Hey lucky Dude. Congrats. I wish I would have started a web Site to get free stuff. Question - My dealership said that they had ordered me a new radio. WRONG. Star is closed on a Saturday - and thats why they said that. Bogus- huh? They said come in and flash the stereo (the CD stopped working). Is this legit? Is it going to interfere with the other flash that I had done? Help.
