Post by: nwcj5 on August 21, 2008, 09:06:09 PM
here are some bad pics of before and after a BDS 3" kit, trxus m/t, and Cragar 342's...full size spare will be put on next week, just waiting for the 5th wheel and hopefully some better pics, maybe even in action  ;)

you can't see very well that it has dual steering stabilizers and it handles a lot better than it did before

Got the same tires. Don't expect any mileage from them. I love the performance offraod but on road they are not the DD tire!

I might, and I mean might, have about 300 bucks to throw at the jeep, and I was weighing some options, maybe sliders (leaning towards the most), aussie locker (meh), or other Ideas you guys have? maybe corners and something else..

I always like to have armor first but I would keep savin your $ and get the lift you want. I used to have the burn hole in pocket disease. Now I know how to save up. ;)

Oh I guess I wasn't clear enough, I was just messing around when I said the lift was my mod, I just meant that it would probably be a while before I added anything to it, but like I said I may add some rock sliders (it already has a 3" BDS lift pictured in the first pic, hard to tell from the angle)
