Nice, I dig the high clearance skid plate. You really need to try Narrowed wheels. Ask Badger how much of difference it makes.

jeep_boy02, Nice ride! you definitly need to narrow your rims and cut those tires up! I used rckjeeps tires last weekend and the kicked ass all over my cut up wide txt tires! rckjeep, If I did not have my new LST's I would have taken your tires and ran!  |

Actually I am one step ahead of you all! I had the front wheels narrowed before I posted, but after I took the shots - So Im half way there. the rears I am going to do Sunday when I aint workin with a chop saw cause the had saw I used on the fronts just didnt do great job - I kinda gots a wobble now  Thanks for the comments and hopefully I will follow rckjeep and put some K-Rocks on the TXT rims.

Just buy a regular TJ and get a 44 front made for it. The Rubi front 44 is just a tease. It's the 44 housing but the 30 outers. It's also got a funky 44 carrier I hear and you can build a Rubi Killer a lot cheaper. | |

As for the rubi - it is actually a choice I have to make - I gots a 5.9 limited grand and I am going to 1: keep it, throw in 60's with some 33s and have a nice trail rig 2:trade it for a Rubi 3: trade it for 05 Grand (can you say HEMI) 4: Sell it and buy another CJ |

Im being conservative and I want more beef than the 30's yeah I could beef it up but that would run more than plopping a 60's under - I will most likely go with 35s though and will probally settle on 44's since I gots some of them anyways |
