How hard off road are you gonna go?

Simple

rubicon Express 3.5 lift kit. ($$)
T-case lowering pucks....
6" flares ($)
15X8 rims
4.11 or 4.56 diff gears with new diff centers. ($$)

Complicated

Rubicon 4.5" lift. ($$$)
Heavy Duty Slip yoke Eliminator ($)
front and rear adjustable panard rods
6"flares ($)
15X8 Rims
4.56 or 4.88 diff gears with lockers ($$$$)


Whats wrong with the T-case.....will in not engage (linkage) or does it grind?.

I'd just replace it with another one.....wouldn't try to fix jeeps aren't that popular enough to just "fix" (part & knowledge)

front diff = Dana30

How much work are you looking to do yourself? The more you dopurself the more $$ for mods - and obviously the beeter lift kit (they are not all equal ).

hey wooders are the same wooders thats on ausjeepoffroad and if you are were are you at as they say to talk to for parts (would you have a trany as my trany is grinding )


to the rest if i say i want try nothing hard i would be dick (as you all know you see a big hill and the first thing that cums in ur head is can i get up there) but not to big as i do need it for road use so 4"is th emost i would go
