That pic in front of the off road shop really shows it's clearance with the larger tires.


You dont need a long arm at all. It will be as simple as putting some new coils on the puppy, new shocks, and maybe, just maybe new driveshafts. From everything I've read you can do a 2 inch budget boost and fit the 35's with no issues. You might need a relocation bracket for the rear axle also.....

I'd be more interested in a 4" so 37''s would fit. Then get a little offset in the rims and run a wider tire. But not so wide as to need aftermarket flares.

37's would be great.......dont get me wrong........But overkill for what I want/need to do. That rig with 35's would be plenty capable.....:excited:

but I will not be doing just a budget boost. I will add new coils, new shocks, keep the stock control arms, and then just change up the rims. The underneath looks "fairly" skidded but I'm gonna cover up anything exposed and be good to go.

The TJ is sitting on jacks in the garage right now. I have a whole list of goodies that are being slammed in it for next summer......:popcorn:

I think I like the soft-top better. Easier to remove and you can just fold back half of it.

The half doors aren't available yet. Maybe just go with tube doors.

the soft top is inside the hard top. You don't have to have either/or. The soft top is mounted and folded down so you don't have to remove it to put the hard top on.

Ok, but why is there an option for the hard top and an option for both tops? Me too confused.

if you get both tops both are "mounted" The soft top is mounted and folded down on the fenders. If you were take the hard top off and tool around and get caught in a shower, you can pop the soft top up.

Basically, you can run both tops without having to fully remove the soft top, which is cool IMO.

So my question is, what is standard equipment? Hard or soft? I usually come hard, but drive around soft.:giggling: :giggling:

comes with soft and you have to add duo.

The more I look the more I'm convinced a rubi is a must have.
