No it is 4wd because the shift linkage is broke, so for right now yes. I my rear tires are different from the front because i got a wicked steal on then and the old tires where bald.

i havent up dated this in a while, so far nothing much tried doing some rear shocks to raise the rear a little broke all four upper bolts and both rear shackle let go. damn shame. But i chose the jeep life i will move on. Next week my jeep is going to auto at my school to install my lift. was gonna do it myself but hurt my knee real bad and ran out of pateints with it, but i dont have to pay labor so just paying parts. 
Todo this to start as soon as it warms up
*Lift
*Exhuast hanger
*oil change
*Fix cold air
*Tie rod end (hopefully will fix or help with death wobble)
*Bedliner
*Aftermarket Radio
*Fix rusty floor
Ahhh the jeep life

Updating you guys, the Jeep is back 
. Lift is in, doesn't sit like i thought it would. Oh well just bigger springs up front. Rides so much better though. Did a little wheeling, nothing crazy. Had to make some make some extended sway bar links. In gonna try to put pictures up tonight after work

I need some insight on tracbars. I want an adjustable one, but im not gonna be offroading alot. This is kinda becoming a pavement princess build. But it will see rocks and mud so i want a good one. Im thinking a rusty's trackbar. Just would like a little insight if anyone had it.
