That actually looks really cool for a weather man. How good will it hold up in a really bad storm? Cuz we just recently had a bad storm and my jeep was getting blown all over the road by the high winds. I imagine it dont get better when your up higher. Looks about the hight as yours nick. Why dont you paint a tornado on yours and buy a WJ for a DD.

that one is as high as mine was, I lowered mine from 5.5" to 3.5". If i had the money and a V-8 I would have left it that tall. And it can get hairy, but you can solve that with shocks...

Be sides, if I buy a WJ I'll build it. Just the way I am.... Can't seem to leave a Jeep stock..

Heck if I bought a SRT8 I'd lift it....

Check out a guy on my local forum's ZJ build

14 bolt/D60. Hydro assist. Anything else you can think of. A bit overkill if you ask me. He has not wheeled it since he finished all the work about 2 months ago.
