I have it figures out. I wanted to be higher while traveling in the Jeep. I just put 2 inch spacers onder the front seats. I reminds me of a1975 CJ5. I called a shop today about the front lockers. They said that if I was going to flat tow the Jeep that I could not use lockers. It would bind up in the turns. Sounds like bull to me. Has anyone else found this to be true. Yes I will be flat towing the Jeep alot more miles then I will be driving it offroad.

Perhaps if you are going with non-selectable lockers like a TruTrak (sp?) or whatever, but if you are going to use a selectable air or electrically activated locker, you will be fine flat towing. Put the transfer case in neutral, unlock diff's and everything spins freely.

all you would need is a selectable locker and it owuld be fine...

it would probably be ok with the LSD type lockers aswell i mean they bind sometime when just driving around.. and being flat towed if its behind an rv how tight can that thing actually turn in? i never flat towed anything would the steering go all the way in one direction or the other being towed?

Lock-rite locker in the front, OME 2.5 SA lift, 32in BFG KM2's or 31's...Garvin Wilderness Rack, 9th degree tummy tuck, JKS Disco's or Anti-rock....

Your Jeep will be straight simple, but fully capable of anything you throw at it. 90% Driver 10% Rig....
