  • if you could build your jeep over again..

    would you do anything different?

    I would.

    i would keep my full soft top (or get a new replacement) and leave my back seats in.
    i would drop it down 2" lift max. highline or high hood
    get good control arms (stock length)
    flat skid it (tuck up the gas tank and a 1" mml)
    keep the axles i have now (44's)
    run a good all around 35" tire
    and call it a day

    kinda look like this

    I wish I got a long arm lift, with 3.5" instead of 4.5". Flat fenders, D60's front and rear, 37's.

          My only real wish is that I did everything i wanted to in one shot. would have saved a few $K that way.

          I also would have done 2.5" lift instead of a 5.5", gone with a rear D60 instead of the 10.25, and thats about it. everything else im still planning on doing to the rig anyway.

                      I know I haven't done much to make it different, though 4.5 would be nice.
                      Is it egg nog season yet?

                          4.5" of lift would look funny with stock tires

                              and i would NOT have taken it appart when i stopped driving it... thats my biggest regret... is parting it out.
