I removed the Wheel Spacers. I'm going to keep the Stock track with and wheelbase. The body will be mounted about the height you see below. I'll need to open up the Fender wells just a little more....

Finished Trimming the Fenders and started the First Rocker guard...

I say #1. I love the low look on a offroader. A buddy of mine has a Xj with 37 Iroks on it and a 2 inch lift from stock his suspension is almost all downtravel and it looks sweet, and in some of the videos i saw it did pretty well. So maybe do a half sprung half droop deal. Just a thought, Im still loving this thing

first one looks like a old willys stance...

those are some serious tires...I like em....

what do you use for body filler...just normal auto filler or is it for plastics?? I was going to use Bondo..but not sure if it will adhere.

If the lower ride height will clear the tires then go with it. Lower body height means lower cg and more performance.
