I going up to 40's I'm so excited for it to get done. It goes in on the 20th and will take three days they said.

I'm going with the following:

- Toyo 40x12.50R17 Open Country R/T Pro's
- Black Rhino Shogun Wheels in -38mm Offset and 17x9
- APEX RPV Deflator Valve Stems
- @Adventure Lab (Team) Inner Fenders and Front Fender Chop
- @Adventure Lab (Team) Spare Tire holder with option for ARB Compressor Mount
- Torrix Atlas Spare Tire Support - Supports the Spare Tire with Hitch Mounted Device
- ARB Brushless Twin Compressor
- Torrix Air Up Base Kit - Four short hoses that go from tire to inner fender to air up
- DV8 OE Plus Side Steps/Rock Sliders
- APEX Through Shaft Steering Ram in the High Mount
- Artec Front Axle Truss System
- Revolution Chromoly Front Axle Shafts
- Teraflex 3.5 inch Spring Lift
- Falcon 3.3 Adjustable Reservoir Shocks

I've decided to leave the rear axle alone for now because it is full-float and more robust than others. I'm excited to try out the APEX Through Shaft Steering Ram. I'm thinking it will take care of hard Steering and the beginnings of death wobble. I also can't wait to try out the Torrix Air Up Base System. It will be nice to air up faster. I don't air down often because I'm too lazy. This will help. I'll just be able to hook up the four small hoses and hit the button to the ARB Compressor. The adjustable Shocks will be nice as well.

I'll make sure to attach pics when she is all finished. I can't wait!!!

what were your winning lottery numbers or are you spending the kids inheritance. ;)
I have a very Beautiful and Awesome wife that allows me to spend that kids inheritance :rock:

I like your choices! 😉
I thought you might :) I'm really excited to try the Spare Tire Holder. It looks like a good setup. I hope it all works together with everything.

It's definitely stout! It's all 3/16" steel. It is pretty adjustable, too, to get your tire right where you need it.

It a Jeep, so he is spending both.
I told my coworkers the other day when we were talking about spending money on our hobbies I should have gotten addicted to drugs instead because it would have been cheaper.

I'll try to get pics along the way. I'll talk to the shop manager and see if she can get some pics for me as it progresses.

Very nice!

Do you have steel knuckles and uograded front ball joints yet? I'd think that would be a logical upgrade to handle the 40s.

I have the steel knuckles. At least I was told they come on all 2024 392's. I haven't replaced the ball joints yet but it's on my list. As well as Teraflex drag link and tie rod. Unless they break these will have to wait until I refill the Jeep Fund Allowance from my wife.

I'll let you know. I calculated it out to a max of 81 inches (my garage is 91 inches) or 2.05 meters. So you'd be really close. I'll get an exact measurement once it's all done.
