Default Future newbie in CO

Hey everyone, I'm Derrick. Looking at getting a new JK 4 dr Rubicon Unlimited here in the next few weeks and figured I'd look into what all I can do to the beast in the meantime. This site looks like its full of wonderful ideas and sweet rigs to model mine after. Just cant decide on which color to get since I like so many of them. Leaning towards the Natural Green and Mango Tango so far. Thinking about having the dealer install the 4" lift and 35" KM2's there since it'll all be covered under the warranty if it's done by them but still tinkering around with that idea.

I'm in the Air Force at Peterson AFB in the Springs if there are any locals around as well. Thanks and looking forward to wheeling with some of you down the line.

welcome!

Looks like your rig will be coming along nicely! quite a few of us in The Springs.
What bumpers did you go with?

Also check out militaryjeepers.com. the Colorado Sprigns Chapter has a good representation on JKs and wheel together at least twice a month.

Front bumper I ordered the Rugged Ridge XHD Winch Mount shorty. Rear I ordered OR-Fab Swing a way tire carrier and OR-Fab Rock Slider bumper. Winch I got Smittybilt XRC 10 Comp w/synthetic rope. 35" KM2's mounted on AEV Pintler Argent's.

Yep, on MJ since I have a few friends already on there.
