    First off, sorry if I posted in wrong place.......Long story short, a coworkers husband recently got a Jeep Wrangler 4dr. I know I know. He doesn't know better.

    Anyways, I'm sure we have a few jeep owners on here and was wondering if anyone has a good forum for jeeps or know of any current group buys?

    Thanks for the help. Viva la taco

    Tons of info on there. I'm about to purchase a teraflex 2.5 in lift. Make sure if he is going to do the install that he really does his research. Failing to torque things properly and in the correct order can be bad news bears for the wranglers

    Great option. I'm going for low lift so I won't need OME.

    I'm gonna either go 255/80/17 or a 305/70/17

    Can't decide

    They just have huge fender wells. Keep in mind that will be with my 1.5 spidertrax spacers that are already on there now

    305s Would rub if I was a huge off roader. I do mild stuff but nothing crazy

    i went with rock krawler coils and fox 2.0 shocks on my jk, along with some adjustable jks parts and teraflex bits there and there, frankenlift! but really ome, teraflex, aev are all great options. i second wranglerforum.com as a great source of info.

    Anything long arm... I had great luck in a past life with a 4" skyjacker long arm on a TJ... great flex (with a sway bar disconnect) and it kind of held up... kind of had a lot of bushing issues

    It's been many years - but JeepsUnlimited.com was the place to go (many years ago).

    Granted...I was all leafsprung. We had great results with Rubicon Express.
