im good the lift came with a 1" tcase drop kit but i know i dont need that much. the vibes are so minimal that I could probably just live with it. but for $0.50 in parts I think I can save my u-joints. haha.

I did 70mph in the TJ ONCE... then it blew up >:(

Cute kid, SYE is definitely not the only way to reduce driveline vibes.

After checking on the things you guys pointed out for me here's the plan:

BDS 3" lift. 
Everything I've been researching was on this lift and I plan on staying with this height for a very long time so the lifetime no questions asked warranty works for me.

33x10.5x15 BFG AT on my stock Ravines.
If I went 12.5 the tires would be more expensive and I'd need to buy wheels too.  With the 10.5 I still get the look I want and I can swap wheels and tires at a later date if I don't like this setup.

Hopefully I won't have any vibration problems after the lift.  If I do, Krawler I'll be callin ya.

Thanks for the help guys.  Pics of the end result will be posted.

You can, and I would, run the 12:50's.  Wheel spacer and you are set!  Krawler is running 33/12.50's on Ravines.  15 x 8 right?

I agree with Doug, I run 10.50's on the YJ because I thought I wanted that look, wish I would of just got the 12.50's. Will was the same way. By the wat PM sent Seth.

* 5 on 4.5" bolt pattern
* Backspacing = 5.5"

What don't you like about the 10.5's?  Where do you think the difference would be?  Performance? Look?  I've never had tires this size before so I'm very curious.

Track width is your friend, bigger foot print for traction and all around looks.
