Ok here we go. A little late in the game but better late than ever. Just joined the forum here but have had a build on jeepforum for quite some time now.
Bought the Jeep in December of 2009 and promised myself I wouldnt put any money into it liked I had my previous vehicles. That lasted until June of 2010 when I bought a Rough Country 4" kit. At the time I had just graduated from high school and was coming up on my first semester in college.
Heres the specs:
5.5" hybrid LA's
Iron Rock Offroad 3 link front
Bilstein 5100/5125
IRO Trackbar
JCR Sliders
JKS Disconnects
Teraflex Coils
A bunch of other stuff I cant think of right now.
Jeep when I bought it.
After the 4" RCX kit
After about two months of having the Jeep with the RC lift, I realized how crappy it was. Went straight to long arms and havnt looked back since. Added some armor on it with the JCR sliders and added a yakima rack to help carry some of my gear. So far Iv got a little over 5k and counting in the grand but have also made it a very capable trail rig in the process.
As it sits now.
My next project is upgrade axles and get rid of the quadradrive. Right now I have a 30 front and 44a in the rear (for those who dont know the 44a uses an aluminum pumpkin and is not the regular 44). Could use some guidance as to what I should go with. Plan to use 34's or 35's in the near future but have to upgrade the axles first. Also I have no idea how to weld so ALOT of guidance is necessary ha.
But for what its worth, this is where im at now and iv got a good bit more planned for it in the next year.
