OK wow that is quite a list. and it sounds like you've been looking at quadratec and 4wd.com too much. I would suggest nates4x4.com for you're bumpers and even rock sliders. he can customize anything you want and it would be alot cheaper then the other ones. I would also suggest lockers for your massive D44's and if you're going d44's I'd go a 6"+ lift with the 35's. Might as well right. but thats just me.

Haha exactly right. Yea ill have to check him out. The front d44 would have a Detroit locker in it. Us buy on for the rear. That's why I lubbed on an extra 700-800 bucks. Well ill only upgrade to a long arm kit. Get an extra inch of leafs. two inches of coil for the weight up front. But hell, my RE kit is pretty able as is

I would get it with the ARB air locker, that way you can disengage when on the highway. unless you're making a dedicated trail rig.

Update, sort of
Yesterday was a perfect day, so I decided to go flex out the jeep and see what I couldn't crawl up. Had some troubles but made it up everything I tried

Yes my jeep questions you right now haha

I love not having my swaybars on. I cant believe how good this kit flexes

The rear leafs..... holy cow, didn't know they could do that

At first I thought I couldn't get up on these mounds. Then I put it in 4lo

Got it in. Dang thing was a PITA! there are 4 parts in there. the 3rd one from the left was the last part to go in. I had .02 Inches of clearance to get it in. I had to take all the other parts out and make sure NO dust was on them to get t...he last part in. The 4 Springs that separate the middle 2 pieces (Cams) also sucked putting in. One sprung across the shop. Not fun. Drove it home and I can actually stay on the throttle on corners. When I flore it on the corners I get wheel hop. Does exactly what it should. Now I just need to get one of em off the ground and see how it works! My body aches



So I guess Insert you degrading "why the hell did you lock a Dana35" Comments here \/ \/ \/ \/
