Looks great. Have you looked into side steps?

Yes, we are going to do some rock rails when a design we like comes out. Hopefully something with a step incorporated.
It’s a pretty big step up and down right now.

who did you buy the wheels from? what is the backspacing? What is the bolt pattern? What did you pay per wheel? Any rubbing?

How muck did it cost for the wheels and tires?

The wheels are in the $300 range. We purchased them from Hickman’s Tires. We have a write up on the wheels with information on them.
The tires are $263.93 a piece. We have a write up on the tires with with information on them.
The only rubbing is on the air dam under the bumper when turning at full lock and hitting a bump.

Does the lift that you used include everything that you need, and what about pricing?

Do you plan on adding a cold air intake and/or exhaust? If so; what are you looking at. I have been looking but have only seen one or two available. Hopefully, more will be available soon.

Looks great I am think about lifting mine 3″ and pulling the flares off and running 37s maybe. My question is this gears 4.88 or 5.13? I stil have not seen anything about lockers out yet nor axle shaft upgrades.

GREAT looking Jeep!! A HEMI in a Jeep works for me! I love everything about your Jeep project. The graphics, wheels/tires, winch, color etc. I’ll volunteer to drive it anytime you guys are in the St. Louis area.
