Me too,,, :beer:
Just updated first post to include what we are now having done at ORE in March. PR44, gears, 3" Enforcer, King shocks......... :clap2:
:thinking: I call this my jeep but, my wife insisted I get the Rubicon, and now she is making me get the PR44 and Kings? :thinking:
Looks awesome!
Just sold #5. Thinning out the stable since I just retired yesterday. Seems to make more sense to keep the 1 ton diesel truck if we are only keeping one.

That was the last one for now. May get another one down the road. I was over aggressive with the build on this one and my wife could not really enjoy it.Congrats on retiring but it sucks to read that you sold the Jeep. Do you have any others or was that your only one?
Congrats on retirement! I only have 30 more years [emoji26] What makes you say that you went too aggressive? If you could go back what would you do different?That was the last one for now.

I would have stayed with the Rancho 2" sport suspension(leveling kit) and 35" or smaller tires. I would have been fine with C-gussets on my stock Rubicon axle instead of the PR44. I have nothing bad to say about the parts I had on this jeep. I just over built it for our normal use. It was too tall for my wife to get in and trails like when we went on the Rubicon were too hard on her. What I really used this jeep for almost weekly was desert dirt road exploration. The only pull the winch ever made was pulling a broke down car out of a ditch and back on to the highway. If I get a JKU again I will probably do 2" front coils, 1.75 coil spacers in the rear, King 2.5 (or Rancho 9000) shocks and 285 or 295 tires. This setup would let me do 99% of what I did with this jeep. I moved my retirement up a year for personal/family reasons and that means I am making some unplanned adjustments like parting with the jeep and some other toys. Parting with some toys now will help me be debt free later this year.Congrats on retirement! I only have 30 more years [emoji26] What makes you say that you went too aggressive?

Thanks for the kind words and well wishes everyone.That all makes sense. It is really easy to get caught up in the coilover with 40's hype with all those badass wayalife videos. I like to hear personal experiences from both sides. Thanks again, and I'm sure I speak for all the folks on hear, I sure hope you stay active and pop in! Happy new year!
