I'm so excited. I get to pick this up on Wednesday. Sure it ain't a focus, but something I've wanted for a long time. Hopefully ready for spring thaw mudding.

The same tires came on my cousins ranger and they never had a problem with them. great in the snow and all other conditions. the one recommendation I will give regarding the tires is rotations every 10,000k. and check your pressures every couple weeks. they get choppy pretty easily.

Eventually a lift is going to happen. But for now I'm getting the essentials. Tow straps, winch, soft top. Eventually she'll go up, and on 35's. But first things first, need to upgrade the front axle to a dana 44.

D30 on the front, D44 on the rear. It uses 3.73 finals which I'm happy with for now. Only time i'll upgrade is if I go bigger tires.

Eventually this is how I want it to look like, just with a bit more lift.

That's a driver error issue. LJ's don't do backflips.

hahah and I plucked it right in your backyard.
But yeah i'm looking for probably light bracket. Do you guys have a catalogue for it yet? Also going to be looking at an exhaust as well.
I looked at the online catalogue and there were only a few things for the LJ. Seems most of the parts are for the JK.

That looks badass right there! My neighbor has had a fair share of jeeps, but his DD has some deadly light bars. The one over the windshield is the kicker imo! Check out the delta ones, http://www.adventureaccessories.com/ligh...ajeep.html .
