I really like that. What about just individual pieces and parts to put on it without that entire rig? Because I can do whatever I want to this thing I just need some help figuring it out. I like this site a lot. It's been very helpful already.

ls1 is about the best v8 you can swap,The 4l60 is a ok trans but can be beefed up and will fit inside the jeeps trans tunnel.The atlas 2 is kinda the god of a t case many different ratios 2 speed or 4.Dana 60 and 14 bolt are 1 ton axles that can handle up to about a 44 inch tire.

I think I'm gonna like this forum a lot. What if I'm going for smaller though? I think maybe a 32 1250 15 tire and wheel what other stuff could I add as far as racks and lights and bumpers? I just want your suggestions. I'm open to anything.

sorry man. your thread title is going to get you a whole lot of folks telling you how they would spend $15k on their own rig. and us arguing about how to spend your money isn't going to get you very far

4" lift will fit 35's just fine for rolling around parking lots impressing the high school chicks.. then you can spend the rest of the money on bumpers going full retard with rigid led bars everywhere

serious answer.. read the forum a lot and figure out what you're actually going to do with the thing before you plan on throwing money at it blindly. go read thru the build thread forum and write down things you like.

32s is a stock jeep to most of us on here.As far as armor goes t case skid plate gas tank skid plate and rock sliders are a good start.
