When that photo was taken a few weeks ago, OME 2.5", JKS 1.25BL, 35x12.5x15 MT/R Kevlars. Currently changing over to BDS 3" springs and Bilstein shocks. What are you running?
Same tires, BFG KM2, suspension is 6"Full Traction Long Arm Kit, with the 3 link in the rear,,,, but I am using 5.5" Rubicon Express springs with Bilstein 5150 Reservoir shocks, AEV diff skid plates. Set-up works great, and have done some tuff trails including "The Hammers" and the "Rubicon".

Well I finally picked up our new family vehicle! Admittedly, we don't really want to do much in terms of modifications based on the capability out of the box and that it is going to be a daily driver. A winch, some armor, and a few other doo dads and it will be prepared for its namesake. Here are some shots from its 3100+ mile break in drive.

This is my first new vehicle, bought in Sept. 2003. Many camping trips and a few decent trail runs later and she's still going strong, save for a few minor things, mostly wear and tear stuff I could fix myself.
Some features: 2.5" OME lift, full skids, ARB bumper, Warn winch, Defender rack with ARB 8' awning, home-built storage/sleeping area in back, Trasharoo, and basic safety and recovery gear.

Nice. I'm heading to Moab in early Oct this year.
My jeep, just thought I would post it up.
I see you have the AEV rear swing away but what bumper is that? I love the looks. It's just what I'm looking for. Very logical.
Thanks
It's a home made bumper. I did not want the weight out back and am trying to have a fairly low rig on 37s. I will be modifying my front bumper to something similar when I have the time. I also may pull it in closer to the body.
It's just a piece of aluminum channel with some steel sleeves slid into the frame with a backing plate welded to them. The channel is sandwiched between the plate and the recovery points. It was fairly simple to conceive after looking at the mounting solution of the aev swing.
A mall pic of the bumper, well work parking lot.

I really like the color matched wheels. I love that color too.
Until you said they were 37's, I thought they were 35's, they just look like they belong there, I love how it looks. Although, I too am kinda curious how much of those tires can get stuffed into the wheel wells before stuff starts gettin messed up.Stuff?
I don't have any liners, pushed the rear axle back, trimmed the front bumper, trimmed the rear pinch seam... Sure I get some fender to tire rubbing, but it's just a fender...
I also just added 1/2" bump stops in the rear and 1" in the front to keep some of the rubbing down. They do rub the fender while turning, but they will self clear, or I could just trim more of the side of the fender.
Painted the wheels and rings myself, Mopar spray paint.
Thanks again
Guess I could start a thread about this setup
