Teraflex 4" long arm
King Shocks
Redoing the front and rears with chromoly sleeves and steel gussets. Re gear with 5:83(?).
Bigger drive shaft in the rear.
Fox steering dampner.
Willwood calipers.
Bushwhacker flat fender, possibly painting them Sahara Tan.
I want the FabFour bumper but might have to go to a stubby bumper.
What's your thought?

Oh and I just called Willwood and no brake kits for the JK. Might have to make my own bracket and use one of their 4 piston calipers on stock rotors.
Plus.... Thanks to all who have chimed in. I feel a lot more comfortable now with trying to do a bigger build.
So thanks....

"Stance" can mean either width or height or both at the same time I guess. So if you are only speaking about width, Spider trax spacers will address the width part of the stance. Sure you can run them, lots of bubbas have them on their rigs with no issues.

How about pics and a 6-pack
I have spacers on mine already and like the way the 13" wide tires looked sticking out. I know some don't. You know I just keep picturing the red jk with 40's. It just looks so wide and mean. If I can get a slightly minature version with 38's, I think I will be happy. Final decision will be 4" or 6" with the 38's.
Gonna study that blue jk real hard.
