Hello everyone my name is James and I was referred to bsj by a friend of mine Don Dewar.
I have a 2012 JKU Artic with:
35x12.5x17
2.5 TF coil lift
Shrockworks rock sliders
Full skid plates
CB
DIY stubby front bumper
Trucklit led headlights
I want to get:
4:88's
OX lockers
Winch
Front and rear bumpers with tire carrier
I have been offroading for about a year and have had a lot of fun doing it.
Just sent in my application last week and hope to see everyone on the 28th.

Yep that's me! Been wanting to join for the last year and finally got my app in.
Can't wait to see how these 35's do as the stock rubi tires that came with it did pretty good IMO.
With that said I'm still running the stock 3:23 gears and am curious as to how they will or will not do with the added weight and traction of the 35's.

Thank you for your service! Nice looking rig! Hope the 3.23s do OK but I see a regear in your future with 35s even with the penstar...

Time for 4.88s.
Skip the math that says 4.56,because you need to be just past that point to have an improvement over stock.
3.6 or 3.8.
I led a run you were on at a JonFund meet and greet last year.
