Hello y'all

I've been on the forum for a few months now mainly reading and researching JKs. I'm not new to Jeeps I've had 2 and 4dr XJs and a TJ. The last XJ was on 33s and the TJ was 5" of lift and 35s. Unfortunately the last one of those was sold 10yrs ago. I had replaced a Jeep with a car. But after the insurance company totaled out my last car I decided that I missed my Jeep and that I didn't car about gas mileage. If I do I will just ride the Harley.

I live in Orlando, FL but twice a year I travel to PA to visit family. They are in the same county at River Raider Offroad and 1.5hr from Roush. I have yet to wheel there but once I have a but more done to my JK I'll bring her up.

I'm actually on my way down to Palm Beach on my Harley tomorrow to see my sister.

Do you have any pics from your wheeling trip?

I'm wanting to wheel Richloam on 50 west of Orlando. I wheeled there 10 years ago and has a blast. In 03 (i believe it was June) Peterson 4Wheel did an article about Richloam called "Florida swamps on 44s"

I had only had my Jeep a week when I got some 33 Iroks installed and went to Hard Rock. It was fun but I need to go with a group who isn't afraid to get stuck. Plus I need a locker to really have done fun.

As soon as I finish putting on the lift and tires I'll be ready. There is a Florida thread on here I follow that might interest you

Oh a Florida thread, point me in the direction... What size lift are you installing? I have 33iroks on 1.75 spacers with shock extensions. And now on the way is a set of Rubicon shocks and 18/59 springs with only 6k miles. Picked them up for $150. I have the soft 14/55 springs right now.

If you are looking for some tall front springs I have 3" Teraflex springs that I'm not going to be using now. They came off a local guys JKU running 37s.

I'm still new here myself. Not sure how to post the thread. But just use the search bar on here for Fl. Members and you'll see it
I'm going with 3" enforcer 35" tires. Toyo mt on national back order. So I'm just waiting, to install it
Your setup sounds good.
