My jku "Flash" build thread

[wes_travis]

What's up guys, decided to start a little build thread to keep up with my progress. It will be a long journey considering my adhd and other hobbies. Lol. This is the day I picked it up:

Next was I loaded the Diablo intune, since I had it laying around from my last F150, then had the windows tinted

Held out as long as I could then picked up a teraflex 2.5 coil lift and Firestone destination mts, 35x12.50's.

Last weekend we took a trip to Catahoula offroad park in Sicily Island, LA. So I trimmed the bumper and pulled the fenders off.

Shortly I'll upload some pics of the trip, thanks for lookin.

Nice!

Did you re gear? If not, how much has the lift/ tires effected your mpg and ride/power? Just wondering because I too was looking at the Teraflex 2.5. I was thinking of getting 33s but I WANT 35s.

I haven't re-geared yet, still on the stock 3:73's. They are on my short list of mods, if I can ever decide on a ratio. I averaged 16-17 mpg speeding to and from work, and have been down to 13-14 with the same driving habits.

I though the sport model had 3:23 gears and rubicon came 3:73 or 4:11, I could be wrong

Some sports came with 3.73, mines came with them aswell

I am in same situation. I want to regear but not ready to chunk too much change. It's looking great though.
