Thanks!

Still hard finding parts for the 2 door, but I added a couple of things

Big time. I just ordered bracket for my kc HiLiTES 8 across top of windshield. Have the lights but no bracket. DV8 finally realeased it. Can’t wait coming wed. I’ll install it on Thursday. So far here I am today.

Great looking Jeep!

I went back and forth between white and billet, but when this 2 door showed up at a dealer within driving distance I had to go with it.

Nice buddy! Thanks also. I’ve been doing as much as I can do so far. JL products are just hard to come by since not much is available.

Started a thread elsewhere but added teraflex level/lift for JL 1”/1.5”
Wheels and tires came today!
Not much daylight left by the time I got them switched over so lighting is poor. 315/70/17

For those wanting to see a 2 Door running 37's with no lift. No rubbing at all. Just had to remove the small plastic lower liners in the rear. Going to go with a Accutune 2.5" lift once they come out. Wheeled it like this with no issues.

Assuming that you have not changed your gear ratios....how well does it perform for city/highway driving? I'm having a tough time deciding between 35s and 37s.

Yep, factory 4.10 gears and the 8 speed auto. Works great on the road. Still very peppy!

Now you have me leaning towards 37s. Your Jeep looks awesome. Thanks

Thanks! I personally would recommend 37's if you plan on going there anyway. Buy once .
You will need to add 2" bumpstops front and rear if you decide to install them without a lift.

Unfortunately the front d35 or whatever they’re calling it is my reason for not going 37s. I’m not sure it’s any stronger than the one in the jk jeep says it is but I’m not putting much faith in that after all the problems I’ve had with mine.

No comment on any of the conclusions but Dynatrac took a deep dive into the JL axles, worth checking out if you haven't seen it.
