Default I shot myself kinda

Sorry no cool story but.

I had the loan done for this jeep i had found and then it got sold out from under me the jeep that i have listed in my sig.
I guess i kinda shot my self in the foot by talking all about it on here and with freinds and such.But i really had my heart set on that jeep.

So now im probibly going to get a stock 4 door.
I want to run at least 37's i will not go any smaller.
how much and witch lift would you preffer..
i will daily drive this ride doesnt matter much to me i will also mud it almost everyday seeing as how on a construction site theres plenty of it.
i will probibly do some climbing here and there but mostly mud.
i will do 5.13 or 5.38 gears with lockers and probibly down the road go to d60's.
Like on the other one i will do tube fender or just trim mine and a shorty front bumper.

Please let me kno what you guys think..

Thanks
Tyler

it might be a good thing, I just bought another one and found a stock rubicon for the price of a stock X model. Deals are out there... Just look and have patients...
