hmm, let's see.
4.7 stroker
Atlas case, probably 4.3
NV4500 (though with the atlas i might just go 3550 since granny gear with the 4500 would be kinda redundant. not to mention a lot lighter and it would still bolt up to the engine without an adaptor)
full width axles, HP D60 front, could go either way in there rear, D60 or 14 bolt
38" tires, selectables front and rear
OBA/OBW
custom half top
custom dash
oh and some gun metal stainless trim for bling :lol: nothing wrong with a muddy jeep, but i do love to have mine sparkling once in a while

Well, my TJ is just about where I want it to be. I still need to do a couple of more things for now, like regearing and getting a better rear axle. But my dream rig would be to restore an old flat fender CJ2A, CJ3A OR CJ3B, which is going to happen I hope within the next few years.

I dream about having more hours in the day! I plan on finish all my projects. But first I need my dream to come true than all will fall into place.

I would do exactly what your doing except i would do 6.5 front and rear coilovers with 35" rubbers. Lower cog is always king.

True, low cog is a great thing, but if you go wide enough...
It's just a pipe dream at the moment. Don't have nearly enough cash to even start putting together a list of parts. Gotta save up for a DD first.

I spent 14 months and who knows how many thousands of dollars building my jeep from the ground up, tearing it apart to paint everything then putting it back together again. All I want to do is wheel it!
