toymaster,

I think i'm already there, haha. My wife says "how can a person look at Jeep stuff that much?" haha. I raced motorcycles most of my life and that was defiantly a sickness, and money pit. Oh well everybody needs a hobby and I am hooked!! Immediate plans include 2.5 coil lift, flat fenders, wheels and tires although I can't seem to decide on 33's or 35's. The Jeep will be mostly a DD so i'm thinking 33's. Although once my Jeep sickness progresses I will probably wish I went with 35's. The only concern I have is I probably won't have the cash to regear right away. The Jeep has 3.21 gears in it so I know I'll loose quite a bit of power. Also I'm a fabricator by trade so I plan on building front and rear bumpers with tire swing and a lightbar.

You're pretty close to Bridgeport. Fun wheeling there!
