now that youve driven on this setup for awhile, is there anything to this list you would do differently or add:

OffRoad Evolutions 12" front coilovers
OffRoad Evolution Rock Stars
Teraflex LA kit
Teraflex High steer kit
Teraflex 4" coils and shocks (rear)
Rock Krawler HD Tie rod

I am putting together my build list for my 2 dr and it is very close to this but considering adding the EVO rear coilovers instead.
What size tires you running? I am considering 40s.

I just finished my install of the Full Traction 4" long arm kit with EVO's front coilovers and EVO's rock star skids. I'm impressed with the ride, much better than the TF 2.5" BB I had. the steering feels almost stock. The only thing I'm not happy with is the bow on the rear springs. I bet if the springs didn't have the bow, the ride would be even nicer.

I'm taking it out on the trails this weekend, I'll be posting how it handles.

40s? Wow! Hope you have a hemi ;-)
I would add the Currie relo weld on rear spring perch since the rear springs bow significantly after setting pinion angle. I heard that Rock Krawler is coming out with something like this soon, but I'm not sure if they are weld on. JKS has a bolt on version. IMO weld on is safer.

BTW, if I had the $$$ I would have installed the EVO rear lever system. Coming soon;-)

I run 35's but with 5" of lift 37's would look better:-)

I have the same problem with the rear springs bowing.

BTW, what are your alignment specs? In my case I feel like my JK rides better than stock.

I'll be offroading this weekend as well. There will be pics so stay tuned

I took the JK out this weekend with the front coilovers. On semi-horizontal trails they worked wonderfully. But, when I began to do technical rock climbs, the front up would unload and throw me off my line. I will post pics when I get home tonight.

I too got thrown off my line a couple of times when climbing up very irregular hills that required me not to let go of the gas. It was muddy and if by chance I hesitated on a climb I would lose momentum and lose traction which happened to me when I lost my line, I figured it was due to driver error.
