Dude, those last set of pictures made me really jealous aha. Puttung all those parts on then maybe a nice rack, some flat BW's and removing the ugly moldings and damn that would look so good. The paint is so clean and so is the interior and with all the loaded options. What a find!

Blazing start as usual. x2 on regearing. With the 35s consider 4.88 over 4.56 it will give you a tad more oomph if you are using this as a dd.

Really having second thoughts now about what direction I should take with this thing..
Ive already got brand new 35s sitting around waiting to go...but for some reason I feel like id be better suited for 33s..

Maybe I'm just anxious about starting on this thing, but it just feels like I am going about this build wrong.

Well took a midnight trip up the road and traded my new 35" Chapparels for some BRAND new 33" Cooper STTs, pretty stoked to be running such a bad-*** tire.

Ok 4.5 lift and 35s. Hmm lets try this.

What are you going to do for a steering setup? SYE? Already discussed swapping diffs or upgrading gearing. How about bump stops, what are you going to use? How are you going to cut the fenders? Any considerations about drive shafts. frame stiffeners? Brake Lines?
