I've been on this forum for quite sometime, and I feel that my jeep is getting close enough to being worthy, here are some of the specs on it.
The funny thing about this build is that I have bought everything used and I mean everything, except my tires. The wifey wouldn't have it any other way.
1998 5.9 Limited
Stock 30/AL44 (soon to be locked with Aussie)
Stock 249 (231 soon)
RE 4.5 Superflex, I replaced the stock spacers in front and put in 2" spacers to give me 5.5" total, while leaving the back at 4.5". This leveled out the jeep nicely and got rid of that nose down look.
OME Shocks all around with Shock conversion in the front
U-jointed slip fit Driveshaft
I'm running 33/12.50/15's Trxus MT's which I love, on 4" backspacing on the wheels, they're close but tuck up nicely.
ARB Bumper w/ Warn 9500 HS
Things I would like to get completed on the Jeep
1. Sliderz, Sliderz, did I forget to say Sliderz
2. Stop being cheap and order my D-rings
3. Re-gear to 4.56
4. Make a new Transfer Case Skid
5. Rear bumper with Tire Carrier
This is my DD and I want to keep it this size until I can lock it completely up and learn to wheel with less of a rig. Then, when the bug bites me again I will go to Long arms.

And some trimming in the rear, the front isn't done yet, but clears at everything but full flex it touches a bit.

I know I know, I will get some wheeling pics, but this setup is really new and I haven't got all the bugs out yet.
let me know what everyone thinks!
Thanks,
Dave
