Alright guys I know my build has sorta taken a dump sense I joined the Army but its kicking up once again. Im gathering my parts to swap in a AX15 (I know its worse offroad but i like a manual for on road and it would challenge me more while wheelin)

Mounted up a set of 35's on my rims im looking forward to having the 5 speed, 4.56's and 35's. The dana 44 is still under construction it took a backseat to this and the jeep took a backseat to me planning my leave to go home for the holidays (im fling so the jeep will spend it in Hell Paso) Other than that Im tring to get rust repaired and it undercoated.

Well I swapped a guy my 33's for his 35's even trade. The 35's are Pro Comp mud terrains but there are less than 1000 miles on them. Its a crappy tire but I needed 35's so I could dial in my suspension after i get it all setup all find something better. but for now they'll do.

Cool build! How do you get the console piece by the shifter removed so I can replace the light bulb there?
