Kevin's 2008 JKU Rubicon

Current pic

Thought I needed a place to post pics of my rig and future mods. After a 5-6 year hiatus from off-roading I thought it was time to get another rig. I looked at lots of different rigs but found a great deal on a 2008 JKU Rubicon a couple months ago. Here's some details about my Jeep:

37s are nice on a 4door!!

I agree, 37's are a better fit for a 4-door.

 

[RockChucker]

looks good man! i'm glad those worked out for you

Got an artec truss and c-gussets installed on my front D44 a few days ago. Mitch at U-fab did a great job. Should help strengthen the housing to handle the 37's.

Did you do the drag link flip kit?

 

[kellerexpress]

No I haven't yet.

 

[UNSTUCK]

Do you mind telling me what it cost to have the front axle welded up. I'l be doing my here pretty soon.

 

[kellerexpress]

Sent you a PM

I wouldn't mind knowing what it cost for your front axle also. I've been thinking of 37's myself. Looks great.

Been getting some random odds and ends done before jeep safari.
Trimmed my rear pinch seams for some needed clearance for 37's

Installed a factor 55 prolink on my winch rope

And picked up a much needed spare
