Welcome to the forum Matt!!

I'd start with some Rubi takeoffs providing you can purchase them for a decent price (under $700 for close to brand new, less for higher mileage sets). Go on a few trail rides, if that's something you plan to do, and then see where you want to go from there with respect to higher lift, tires, etc., say a year from now.

As far as lift, I know a couple of the guys locally have some take off components at discounted pricing that would serve you well. I'll leave it up to you to inquire, and them to respond.

 

I think most of us who trail ride have CBs Ed - makes the ride much more enjoyable when you can hear and communicate to the rest of the group.

I'm running a Cobra 75 w/ 3' Firestik II antenna (the latter has an easily adjustable antenna tip that greatly assists "dialing" in the SWR).

 

$26K is too cheap - recommend you raise that to $32K. Good luck, although I'm hoping we'll see you at the next trail ride in your JK (not the Viper).

 

I was going to ask if you had them do you use them but you are five steps ahead of me

 

Wow - interesting thread re how hot the JK hard top can get.

That's really hot! Had to use it.

 

Great catch Corey - I missed an excellent opportunity. I think I've only used this emoticon ---> . . . one other time here on the forum. Well, make that twice now.

 

Thanks maybe I should have looked it up in the manual..........I hope you get to use yours soon.........I have my own cherry picker if needed

 

Do you guys ever eat at Hooters on Fridays ? ............ I love their Philly's.....

 

I've got a New Market address, but you may as well call it Huntsville.
