Thanks man, I'm thinking about buying a rough country 4.5
inch lift but im not sure if I will need to extend my brake lines
if i do. I am also wondering is I should get a winch and winch
bumper first.

were those pics of your jeep taken near the the high school? I would go with the winch first if I were you thats one of my next up grades! I am running the 4.5 x-series lift and it came with upper and lower control arms, adjustable trackbars, full leaf packs, coils, and extended brake lines so it comes with pretty much everything you need! but that is for the more expensive 4.5 sort arms kits!

The pictures were taken near the highschool
I live just a few blocks down the street.
That sounds like a nice lift to go with.
The lift I was looking at comes with lower
control arms coils either ad a leaf or leaf
pacs brake line relocation brakets t-case drop
and i think track bar drop.

Hey Shane nice pics! Sweet looking rig! Love the push bar. I wanted to get one like that and make it adjustable so I could keep it up when wheeling and just slide it down when its time to give someone a push. I have to echo what Buck said, I think your rig is more capable then you think. If you go out with the right guys that know the trail and will watch out for you, that you and your rig will do fine. I think with Buck and Tim and their wheeling circle of friends you will be in good hands.

Thanks Shane, I know what you mean, I just fell in to this Comamche. I hunted for a few months and looked at a crap load of junkers that everyone was asking 3K and up for. Then I found this one on Whidbey island. Some 16 year old was tired of it and mom and dad just had the lift, wheels & tires, flares, bedliner camo, stereo and a tune up done on it. The mom let me have it for $2600. She said they had over 3K into it just on those things and it has 184xxx on it. I was very happy

Hows it goin? Chris from everett here. also a suggestion on lift if you dont mind a little work, a bastard pack works well for a good 4" of rear lift from saggy springs.
