Default My input...looking for yours...build sheet

My build specs (wish list) 09 2dr X, auto:
Suggestions or reccomendations:

2.5" Teraflex Coil
3/4" - 1" spacer for my bumper and winch
Bilstein 5100's
Front Track bar - any brand reccomendations???
Extended front brake lines
LCA's- Teraflex or Clayton ???
Front drive shaft....eventually, or do I need it immediately??? Woods??
Rear spring retainers...are they worth it...
1.5" spidertrax

I have the 17" Moabs...and Im trying to decide on my 35" tire choice. Im leaning towards the KM2's solely because I can rotate the spare into the tire roatations...But, I also really like the MTR/K, Mud Grapplers, and the New Pitbull radial...any more input...

Is it worth keeping the Moabs...or switching to a 15 or 16 inch rim??

I plan on a 5.13 and locker upgrade by the summer...

Did I forget anything...or anything that you would add...please advise...


thanks..Bryan

Just a note, tires for 17inch rims are more expensive. You combine that with the cost of the wheel spacers and it could be cheaper right of the bat to get rims with the correct backspacing and proper width to run a 12.5 inch wide tire. Also if going this route it is just one less set of nuts you have to verify the torque on a regular basis. Not saying that wheel spacers arent good, just meantioning something to think about.
