Hey everyone! I have a couple of questions I'm at a cross roads.
The looming question out of all the mods next on my list What to do first!!!
Here's what I've got.
Knowing i have front and rear bumps, lift tires, etc.
I am currently running 3.21's, SUE ME. It's not as dramatic of a deal as everyone makes it out to be with 35's and a manual. I'm no Racecar in real life, in my head that's a different story.
Here's my List of upgrades I would like to do.
Gears 4.88 ( next set of tires will be 37's )
Fenders-- PSC Narrow maybe? -- I like the chopped look on Rubicat/Moby and a few other Jeeps around here but I feel like I and my unskilled hands will make it look cheap.
I'm gonna get a PSC upfront sometime.
I know axles are needed somewhere down the line. My last TJ had 44/RockCrusher60 combo and I am looking at Dynatrax''s in the next few years.
Gonna get some haters on this one but I dig the AirRaid intake, possibilities.
Also exhaust, I want a good crisp no drone sound.
Its just a daily driver street queen for now.
Any suggestions would be great. I'm looking to just play around.
What should come first. Help me spend my money.

My .02 is to try cutting your fenders first before then if you hate it but some after market ones.
As for your mods, Id regear. Get some performance both on and off road. I say this because I have yet to read about someone regretting a regear.
If you wait till after Jan - Feb time frame ill be able to give you a better review as I plan on having my 4.88s w/ bigger tires in by then.
Loading please wait....

I like the look of the Wild Boar one, something a bit different, plus a lot cleaner looking than some of the others on the market.
oh and nice rig. :rock: :cheesy:

I mentioned earlier on that I would throw some pictures of my previous builds up. I may still be 19 but I've got some builds under my belt.
Before i go there I got a few poser shots this weekend. Sue me.
For all those who hate on China LED's, I have had mine for about 5 months. Its starting to not hold in the bracket BUT It's been a hell of a light.
My first build at 16 ( lol such a 16 year old Jeep )
Here's the last build I had Thumper the 1998 TJ
Dana44/Rock Crusher 60 Custom Width
ARB's front and rear/ Onboard air
ATLAS II Transfer Case
Inline 6
RE 4.5 Long arm
Custom rear end shock locations
Metal Cloaks/PSC flat fenders (Changed out)
36.5x12.5x15 Super Swampers
Chromolly Shafts all the way around
Fuel Cell
1 ton steering
Warn armor, PSC armor.
All kinds of other goodies, Built by yours truly.
I dont have many pictures on the trail, I never was a big fan of pausing mid-obstacle and taking pictures or asking someone else to do so.
Everything has a price, and that's why it seems I don't hold on to Jeeps to long. Just make them pretty enough and perform enough and you can make money on Jeeps. Who knew? :cheesy:
Thanks for keeping up with my thread, I hope you all can see I've got some big plans for my JK.

So I finally got a chance to cycle through the suspension and and test driveshaft clearances, bumps and shock lengths. Gotta say Everything looked pretty good ended up getting around 27'' at the bottom of each tire. Not bad for a 1.5 inch lift kit.

Got a chance to run it through somes rocks around my friends cattle farm. Did really well, pictures never do any justice but this was coming back down a big ledge at a creek. Tail pipe is nice and flat now from coming down on it.
