New tires. 31" Definity Dakato AT/2 (yeah...I gave up on the BFs, but the price difference was too high compared to what I paid). Had the front alignment done too...took them forever...worth the $60
The drive is getting better and better. It's still a Jeep of course...so going from a Subaru to this is an adjustment (My subaru was awesome...even on many off-roads). First time I got it upto 70mph +/- and NO DEATH WOBBLE. Just some vibs (U-Joints...those are next).
I'm iimpressed with the power...maybe my lower block (engine) isn't bad. My luck can't be that good though...it never let's me get away with anything but the worse.
Add: whooops how did I post in this section...sorry

Got in a crappy 2" (block front and rear) lift, and some nearly bald 31" tires. Just got it and couldn't stand the stock look. Feel like it was a well-spent $100. Looks better, feels way better. I like.

Getting ready for Spokmo snow and put on some new jeep shoes. Was going for the 32in but no one had them cause the run on tires over the past 3wks so stayed with the 31s BFG's ATs. Got 4yrs out the last set of BFG's. Also had the spindles reconditioned and put on rotors calipers, lines and got brakes done. Almost got frost bite on my fingers but worth it.
Also got a whisper in my ear that said my exhaust manifold was cracked...so naturally I had to order up a Pacesetter header but that's next weekends project.
