First off, thanks everyone for all the infromation and ideas on this forum. It is very helpful. Just picked up sahara from dealership last week. I had the dealer install lift, tires and wheels. Cost me more, but I still have factory warranty! I will post "after" pics soon (hopefully).

Yeah, they won't work great off road, but I tried to lift the wife and it didn't go well. So I compromised with the side steps.

I still am frustrated with the dealership on the package they offer. They did not have any idea about any of the mods. They were able to show me on of the other jeeps on their showroom floor and said it would look like it. They had no idea of manufacturer on tires, wheels, lift, etc. After the I picked up my jeep i was told that I had to contact DSI at an 800 # to schedule a free retorque and inspection on lift. Come to find out that the 4 wheel parts store on 1960 in houston installed all mods, (btw they are great) All mods were pro comp except side bars, they are n fab. I wish I would have been able to contact store prior to install as I would have probably had they install a long arm lift...maybe depending on $$$. This is my first Jeep and so far I love it, but I wish I could have been more involved in the selection of the mods. I thought I had it all figured out. If I could do it all over again I would install a teraflex long arm lift, ultra magnus 20" rims and goodyear wrangelr kevlar tires. Oh and I would have changed the gearing. I am seriously under powered with my new pro comp 35's.

No, I live north of Houston. I went to DeMontrond. I am happy with them overall, I just thought they were a little uniformed on the mod package.
I am not even sure I am allowed into river oaks, I don't have enough zero's in my salary! LOL.
