    LJ handles worse after 4" RockJock and Fox 2.0 install

    Thanks all and sorry for the late reply! This does appear to have a drop pitman arm as you all suggested. The shop didn't mention anything about the pitman arm. Not throwing anyone under the bus. Totally my fault. I should have been the one to research more. Now that I see this, it appears this...

    LJ handles worse after 4" RockJock and Fox 2.0 install

    I apologize if this and come humbly asking for guidance on a topic that has likely been covered a million times. But I went all out on replacing my cheap 4" lift a year and a half ago with top notch. I replaced with the RockJock 4" all 8 control arms. Fox 2.0 shocks. I have yet to do a body...

    35s with 4.56 gears

    As far as the pinions being strong, would you go with Revolution over other brands? Thanks for the response. That info helps a lot.

    35s with 4.56 gears

    I'm not totally opposed to 5.38. Does that fit in the stock housing (44's)?

    35s with 4.56 gears

    I've been debating this. I also have an auto on an 05 rubi. With 33's I was thinking 4.88. But I'm not opposed to 5.13. Can you tell me how that lower gearing affected your 1st gear accelerating on road? Does it shift right through 1st into 2nd real fast? Does this negatively impact the auto...

    Let's see your American Racing AR23s

    MikekiM - I am in the same boat. Black on black. (I'm trying to post a few more times so I can start reacting to other posts. I think I need 20 first.) I see. And from the pics, they can hold up to some heavy wheeling. So they may be worth the gamble. I'm starting to like the look more and more.

    Let's see your American Racing AR23s

    AR23's look good. Maybe they would be great if the Jeep wasn't a DD, it was stored indoors, and/or the wheels weren't exposed to salt or brine. Thank you for the pics.

    Let's see your American Racing AR23s

    Good to know about the AR23's. I still like them and will consider them since my LJ is not a DD. But now I'm leaning towards the Mickey Thompsons. Thank you for the info.

    Let's see your American Racing AR23s

    MikekiM - how much maintenance are these polished aluminum wheels (ProComp 69's)? Do you think the the AR23's would be more difficult because of the angles and the rivet protrusions? Maybe that's a question for those who've owned the AR23's... I really like the polished AR23's and the Mickey...

    Texas Frame rust removal, paint and body shop in Houston area

    Hey everyone. Newbie here. I bought an 06 LJ in Texas a couple months ago. There's a fair amount of surface rust on the frame. Does anyone know of a good place to go through and convert, prime, and paint? A bonus would be a place that could also do a considerable amount of body paint touch up. I...
