I was in your same decision perdicament - and here's what I'm leaning towards at this point: Because I don't want to unnecessarily upgrade and re-upgrade, I've decided to buy a Full Traction Long Arm (when available) with 4" springs. I think this will give a good height for 35s and perform excellent - and hopefully keep me from having to replace all my drive shafts. Maybe not. Either way - I plan at this point on getting 35s with some steelies, and then later down the line when I have the cash I'll move up to 37s or 40s and just upgrade the springs to 6" and adjust the lift accordingly.

Thats whats in my head at least...

I had just asked WOL ( he has been awesome!) about the FT LA kit as well, but nobody here (Dallas) has it yet. But that is the route I am planning as well. Which means I'll end up with new gears, driveshafts, so why the hell not the 37's?!

It's too funny. I haven't even started, and I'm already wondering where and when it ends!

But I am loving it!

Thanks again for the attempts to talk me out of it. But so far, you have all failed miserably.

Ah..Dallas..I just got back from that hell hole of traffic. Anywho, I completely understand where you're coming from. And yes, the FT LA isn't out yet - which is why nobody has it. A few sites have it listed but its not shipping as of today. Since you have an unlimited, your shafts will probably be alright...although angled to their limits. My 2dr almost has to be changed out with a 3" or greater lift. I'm hoping I can get away with no shafts at first but somehow I think not. The gears can come later with 35s...for sure. 37s, not so much. My 4.10s will suck on 35s but they will work until I can gather the money to upgrade.

Unless I win the lottery, or come into a lot of money, you almost have to build it this way I think - because its just a never ending spiral of money spending once you take the plunge for this caliber of trail performance.

I agree with this statement. 35 for 2Dr and 37 for 4Dr. I also wanted to fit in my garage. There is riff raff out there robbing JK's and I like to take care of her when I'm not abusing her.

I did the 4" lift with 35"s for now because of the same reason others mentioned. It looks great and wheels great for now. I can always get 37's in the future and upgrade drivelines etc at that time. Besides, untill I can buy the wife a new ride, I had to compromise...she thinks the 35s are too big now.
