Looks good. I'd put the spare in the tub. Better visibility and lower COG.

Extended wheelbase for climbing. Allows you to run a longer spring for better flex too.

I appreciate the offer, thank you! I managed about a 95" WB with offset rear pertches, but that's about it. She's going to stay SUA, so the front will be left alone. The only future upgrades will be my ram assist. My buggy (based on a 2000 TJ) will have about a 99.3"WB.
