Thee zj to be

New here, wasnt sure where to make my first post. Suppose the jeep section should be fine since it is what i use.

Im currently building a 97 zj, Ive owned this for 4 years. I beat it through the local mudding spots the first year and though it was a blast, it wasn't my thing. Ive took on trail riding and overall exploring difficult to get to spots. Living here in nothtwestern pa there is a lot of dense brush, slippery slops, big hills, and deep waters. Not to mention alot of snow time to time. The jeep hasnt seen to much snow as i don't drive it in our winters as our state likes to spread salt like its going out of style.

I know the basics of overlanding, and what i will need on my vehicle. i have far to go building this thing before i can handle some serious stuff.

Enough about me, here is my jeep, and its many phases. I have managed, through the buying of parts vehicles, to get it on its feet and alot more solid than stock form.

5.5inch lift, 4 link rear, 3 1/2 front
dana 30/dana35 with 3.73
242 t-case(soon a 231)
33/12.5s
1.25inch solid tie rod and drag link with 5/8 heims

most of the other work is "superficial" to make the vehicle more appealing to myself.
such as new headliner/black leather interior/hydro dipping accent pieces

and tips on furthering my rig would be beyond appriciated. plans are on board air, roll cage, water pump, water heater, ect.
