Hey Rubi4life,
Do you plan on wheeling your jeep or is it going to be built more for looks?? Keep in mind those are really big tires. If you do plan on wheeling it, your going to want to beef up your stock axles with EVO C2 gussets, EVO Magnum sleeves and chromoly axles. If your parents are really cool tell them you need dana 60s
I would run a BFG KM2 or the Goodyear MTRs.

Definitely keep us posted on which way you decide to go. Also, I vote for videotaping your parents reaction when you tell them the Jeep they promised you is going to cost about 60k.

New 2010 Rubi: 27-30k
TeraFlex 6" Elite LCG: 3kish
MTRs: $2500 for 5 of them
Walker Evans Bead Locks: 1500
Bumpers: 3k
Gears: 1200
That's $42k, before labor and minus any thing like a programmer, sliders, a winch, stereo upgrade, etc. That $42k is about 10k more than the median family income for Forsyth too. So, I'm guessing his folks are doing pretty well in which case I'd suggest scrapping all of the above and just having them ring Camp on the phone and getting him something that none of his friends with Unlimiteds and 37s will even be able to compare to. All they'd need to do is provide your favorite color, a theme you think is wicked cool and a very healthy Visa limit and within a few weeks I'm sure COP 4x4 can have a trailer drop off your very own work of art and you'll never have to worry about seeing another one like it on the road.

Bor
BOR (Burnsville Off Road) has done a few 2 dr's on 40+ tires.
They did a bunch of the work on the Lower 40 JK with 40" tires on 0" lift.

They also did a "Forty Something" project on 42's with 3.5" of lift.

Both of these builds have been all over the usual magazines lately.
