It’s an upgrade from my old 4 door too crazy how good these drive compared to the JK

Oh shoot I forgot you had a 4 door lol but I agree it’s night and day difference with ride also off roading.

Well ima just post updates for the CJ and the Gladiator on this one . Scored a sweet deal on some used 35” Trail Grapplers should be good enough until I can get gears and lockers for 37’s

ahh dammit, those look good.
I was trying to avoid seeing 35's on a JT, I was going to put on the BFG's that came off the JLUR on the JT but may have to trial fit the BFG 37's I just took off

 

[Bullwinckle]

Hell yea! It’s looking good!

Always go for the bigger tires

Finally got the wheels and tires on, love how it looks with no lift but it’ll probably rub hard under articulation

 

[Bullwinckle]

Looking good!

That looks great against the grey! You could even get some Rubicon fenders and call it a day!

Took the doors off for the first time today, crazy how light these doors are compared to the JK doors lol

Found a really good deal on a stubby front bumper on FB Marketplace but have no idea what brand it is. Has anyone seen this one before?


I know I need to cut the frame horns off the bottom but not sure where to cut so am trying to find the instructions for it lol
