I replied to the other thread you started yesterday...My main advice is for you to purchase an adjustable track bar. I see your kit doesn't come with control arms, hopefully that won't give you a problem. I spent an extra $100 and purchased the adjustable track bar for the front and it made a world of difference...Good luck!

eipi - Federal makes the Couragia MT - I just put em on my stock rims 285/70's. I got all 5 mounted, balanced and disposal of the others for $1247.00 locally.... smoking deal and they ride great! very quiet...nothing but good reviews where ever I looked too. Just food for thought...your jeep looks great! My lift goes on next weekend....

Thanks for the suggestion. I will check those out. Still haven't got around to switching tires...Good luck on your lift!!!

Thanks! Yes, that is the next item on the menu! Planning to go with Nitto Grappler 285 75 17...I think that is about a 34 inch tire, and about 11.5 inches wide. I like the narrower tires for snow. I will probably wear the original rubi tires out first. Can't see wasting all that rubber!
