I'm not sure if my jeep is a sleeper jk with 35s and armor but around town where I am I see plenty if lifted JKs that look like they never go offroad ImageUploadedByWAYALIFE1375927551.603195.jpg

They look nice. At night with the Truck-lites they must be pretty cool!

I almost never run the duallys on the street there really isn't need for them with the trucklite's
But offroad it's amazing the difference between factory and trucklite's with the duallys

These pictures were taken at the exact same spot inside reward mine (pitch black) a year apart on my way up to the sierras

I saw this project 'Sleeper JK' in 4 wheel drive magazine. They swap wheel/tire combos depending on what they are doing. Stock looking on 37s. I think this is what you were talking about...

I like it. Looks pretty stock from the outside but tricked out on the inside ( and underside?)

Thought I would add a pic of our '08 JKUR. This is what it looked like when we bought it.

My sleeper:

I kept stock fenders, stock wheels, and the stock front bumper. Nearly everything on the outside is stock except the tires yet it can still traverse some pretty gnarly terrain.

Really shows how good the Jeep is with minimal mods. Great job!

Does my Green machine count as a sleeper? Painted the front and rear stock bumpers to color match rest of the Jeep! (thinking I should have done the top as well, but usually I am topless!) 4" Lift, 35" Nitto's!

So I started this thread back in the day in hopes of getting to the point we did today. This should be the base config from the factory

3" lift with DL flip
35x12.5 tires
Winch
Frame mounted Sliders
Only thing missing is a better tire carrier.
