Ohhhh Nooo . . . that's Jeff's JK. I can't believe another forum member is selling their Jeep.

 

Thanks.

 

I've been defeated by my new besttop trail cover. That SOB is hard to put on by yourself if you've never done it before. I looked like a bafoon in the work parking lot this morning.

 

I had the Bestop safari cover and it took me several hours to get it stretched out far enough to put it on the Jeep. I had to have my daughter climb up on roof and actually sit on it with her legs hanging over side so I could get the pins in

 

Ordered tinted scrath resistent windows for rear soft top.
Getting ready to pull the trigger on rear bumper.
For those of you who have seen my red/black coverking seat covers, the rear ones are fading pretty bad since I had the safari top on for a long time.ay end up replacing entire seats with either COP or Mastercraft, will see. TF 6" and walker evans rims and new shoes are first on list.

 

teraflex. Talk to JKRubi and ask him how he likes his setup

 

i have a frankenlift.....2.5 budget boost, skyjacker shocks and 4 dr ruby springs, but i LOVE how it rides, my 35's rub a little at full flex when discoed, so gonna do a 1" bodylift when i make some money, i think then i'll be too tall to fit in my garage though, so i need to break out the tape measure first.

 

I got 2.5" with the BB and just under an inch in the front and just over an inch in the back with the 4 door Rubicon springs.

 

what rear bumper Steve????

 

I'd go for coils vs. budget boost pucks if you can afford them, and stay in the 2-3" range otherwise you may find yourself with drivetrain issues (death wobble, drive shaft, etc). The bigger lifts can work fine, but they tend to cost much more. Most of the lifts will address front end rake, some more so than others.

Teraflex, and OME have decent reputations - however it seems all of these guys provide "Mom and Pop" service even though you pay premium prices for their products (if anyone wants me to elaborate, ask me at the next get together).

Note: Keep in mind that a 3" lift will yield greater than 3 inches of lift, typically around 4". And a 2.5" will provide roughly 3 inches. Steve's 6" will probably end up being 8", and combined with the 37's he plans to mount, will most likely require him to install some sort of Oxygen system so that he can breath properly and not succumb to altitude sickness.
