I'd like to throw a 3" - 4" on it and some 33x10.5s and roll out.
Is it a 5 spd? Ocala is a heck of a drive...

Really?!?
Im still worried about the high miles, kind of leaning towards the red zj. Its local and would make a good family camping machine.
Plus I just drove my paw-in-laws f-150 reg cab to the store and remembered how much I hate regular cabs. I mis an SUV

You're leaning towards the ZJ? That's my least favorite, of the three...

The Grand Wagoneer's an awesome vehicle, and that Comanche's in great shape.
They're both cheap, too.

Sounds like you have made up your mind on the zj. Everyone gives you their opinion and you shoot it down with " what about the zj" I want the zj" so go buy a zj.

Lacks the classic Jeep styling, but maybe I just like the Waggy because I'm young and didn't have anything like it around when I was growing up... Which could also be why you seem to like the ZJ better. =P

So quick questions.
How much mpg difference is 31s vs 32s?
I can fit both on a 3-3.5" lift?
Where is the cheapest place to get 3.-3.5" shocks?
What 3-3.5" coils do y'all recommend? And from where? I'm thinking rubicon express.

Also there's some jk stock stuff for sale on Craigslist around me. Will the shocks work for mine I recall reading somewhere you can use em for up to 4 or 5" of lift? What about the jk 4 door coils will they work to add lift?

Sometimes you need a truck, sometimes you need extra seats... And both are awesome. Best of both worlds...!
Go for it.
