Hello,
I just wanted to say hello. I have been e-scouting this forum for several years, but have finally wanted to say hello.
I have a 2009 JKU Sahara that I have been slowly modifying. I hope to wheel the Rubicon with Eddie and Cindy one year. I am actually planning my build and due to money :grayno: it will be a several years before I have my jeep built up to meet Eddie's criteria for the Rubicon trips, but I am working on it.
I currently have a 2" puck lift and running some Rubicon Take Off Tires/Wheels. I also have a Rock Hard Oil Skid and Garvin Rock Sliders.
I currently have most of the parts for the 3" Teraflex coil lift kit (I have bought them used). I just need to buy the shocks and would like to get an adjustable front track bar when I actually perform the lift. I am hoping to install the 3" lift this summer if I can find the extra coin for the parts.
Next year I plan to install C-gussets on the front axle. Then when the Rubicon tires wear out, I will install wheel spacers and 35" tires. I will also get a programmer to reprogram for the larger tires.
The year after the 35"s, I will have installed new 4.88 gears and maybe a locker, then I should be ready for the Rubicon with Eddie and Cindy. I hope they are still playing with JKs and are still having open runs on the Rubicon. Regardless that is my current plan, I hope I win the lottery and I can speed up my build.
I hope to learn and share what little knowledge I have on this forum. Thanks for listening to my rambling.
Happy wheeling!
Later,
Gun
