isn't your JK a rubicon? lol.

I like the fact that I don't have to worry about the tire on one side from slipping. I like the fact that my vehicle's performance is beyond my own.

It is, but the XJ is gonna start being what I wheel. I may be selling the JK in a couple of months once I get the garage cleared out

redid the lift with RC leafs and Rusty's coils. Long arm some time down the road. Getting a front bumper, sliders and unibody stiffeners from Chaos along with a Bulldog Alpha 9.5k winch. Should be done by next week.

Bumping up to 33 (undecided) MTs and trimming. Gonna have some tube fenders made and tied into the bumper and rails. Rear tire carrier. Truss and gussets, and beef up the axle internals. I need to get a CB too
