Buying it pretty much emptied my wallet, so no immediate plans..It's is presently lifted 2" with an 1.5" body lift also, 33"x12.5" BFG mud terrians, 4.11's..I'm thinking sliders and lockers before spring but other than that being new to Jeeps I have no idea where to go from there.....Hoping a 350 transplant by next fall, but we'll see.

Quadratec has every bolt on pos you could want for a Jeep :flipoff:
Really it depends on what you want for where to buy it.
Congrates on the purchase! Looks like a nice rig. what motor is in it? What year?

Sadly it's the 2.4 hence the possible 350 swap..it's a 98 and in pretty good shape.
350 swap is cool but is definetly not needed. A 4.0L swap would be much cheaper, easier and more fuel efficient. It also has more than enough power. A 4.0L swap is basically bolt in and they are very cheap now days. You can find a good motor and all the harness and computer on jeepkings. Somtimes for only a couple hundred bucks.

As previously mentioned, wheel it and then start making a list... I've bought a few things through Dan at National 4WD in Smiths Falls. Price has been bang on, good guy to deal with. Congrats on the purchase and furthering your illness.

A few friends have also told me that this engine is vey good and not to change it out..I do like the idea of putting money elsewhere...axles..armour...etc... would would I be running right now as far as gearing and axles? I was told the gearing is 4.11, but I know nothing of Jeeps.

Keep the engine....
spend money on lockers, etc....way more bang for the buck.
Engine power is maybe a factor in 5% of situations, while other mods are alot more useful. Ask me how I know. :flipoff:
