Hi all - just joined today after picking up my second Jeep Wrangler a few weeks ago. I drove an '01 TJ (4.10's 33 inch tires) for about 10 years. Just picked up a '16 JK Willys edition - all stock with 3.73, 31 inch tires, LSD. Still miss my TJ though. :)
Probably going to go with a 4 inch lift, 35's, LSD up front. Pretty simple stuff. Did a little off road stuff back in 2005 at camp jeep had a great time and wanted to pursue it more but budget was too limited at the time.

Thanks - Bob

Nice, welcome! 4" is a lot on a JK, you can fit 35's with 2.5"

Hi and thanks!

Yeah - I wanted to do 2.5 but in speaking to the guys at WC Motorsports they steered me towards a 4" stating it would handle better due to better steering geometry than the 2.5. Seemed to know what he was talking about so.... I decided on 4". My first mod was of course a stubby antenna. :)
