this is my baby. but i want to build it to last, cause i plan on running it to the ground. its a slow build, but I'm picking away at it. its going to be flashy but its also going to be durable. heres what i got so far:
4.5" rubicon lift
33" federal couragia m/t tires
magna flow cat-back exhaust
rugged ridge cold air intake
banks header and aftermarket flange pipe
superchips flashpaq programmer
bushwacker fender flares

spartan lockers
4.10 or 4.56 gears (undecided)
plain rear bumper (as simple looking as possible, but still aftermarket)
rough country front bumper with stinger
Banks header
and of course other **** when i think about it and have the money

Did you notice any big gains anywhere with your programmer?

toddhalbot

smoother acceleration, slightly faster acceleration, and slightly better fuel economy. the gains were very noticeable but the chip isn't a miracle worker, it just makes my jeep run better. with the tuning i can only use 91 octane gas. its all part of my plan to make my jeep last as long as it can while still having fun with it

Funny that you bring up the "tank for DD" idea - I've long been considering finding a surplus M113 Gavin (look it up, if you want...) fitting road tyres to it, and throwing in a pair of 6BTs to drive the thing.

Add lights, make it street legal, give it to my wife for a commuter. Figure out how to shed about a ton and run it on greasel, should be good.

"My 'crumple zone' is your car. Don't like it? Don't run into me!" Paint that on all sides with a three-inch stencil.

I love your idea haha if only I could afford a real tank for a dd. you could also add something like "challenge accepted"- that's always a good quote. I'd even recommend painting on a yield sign so people stay the **** out of your way

I'm in CA. If I wanted people to "stay the **** out of my way," I'd put an old-style cow-catcher on the front (like the Old West locomotive engines...) and paint the damned thing Signal Orange.)
