Almost complete on my JLU EcoDiesel build.
Question for you all now that I've added 200 pounds of light weight Armor and wheels.... What's the right or best weight distribution between the front and rear axels?
I've hear that you should try and keep 55% of the total jeep weight on the front axels and 45% on the rear.
Looking forward to the feedback/

You are worried about 200 pounds? I weigh more than that. I’m sure you are close. Would you worry about where you sit or stand in the jeep? If not then why worry about the armor?

What about all the gear, tools, fridge, or whatever else you carry in the back. Keep in mind fuel tank location too. Don't overthink it too much in my opinion.
