    Yeah we will make good use of it for sure. Probably start slow with a roof rack of some sort for extra storage and then tires by this summer. She's really not that picky as far as cosmetic stuff which is nice. I'm sure she'll want to lift it eventually but damn it's already got great ground clearance at stock height.

    Teraflex used to be the best in Jeep lifts but I'm unsure anymore. Depending on the year and motor you have I would start with whats known to fail and beef that up. It is a Jeep after all :)

    Haha. Vwry true. I should probably research that first. It's the 3.8L V6. 2011. I'm hesitant on the lift. I had an 08 Dodge 3/4 ton with a Cummins that I just leveled up front. It got the worst case of Death Wobble after I leveled it. It was so bad she was afraid to drive it and I didn't blame her. I'd hate to spend a grand on a lift and get the DW again.

    I'm not sure but it may be the 3.8 that had head issues. I know the diffs also had issues bit that may be the Rubi. I'm sure with a little digging you can find out what to do. Id say a small lift and flat fenders or just remove them and it would make for a lot more travel.

    Yeah about 900 bucks with shocks. Pretty decent price. She's never going to rock crawl so she doesn't need anything major.

    Grandfather brought me back some rum from the Caribbean. They wouldn't let him bring back the Cuban rum or cigars I requested. I thought they lifted the embargo but I guess not.

    Uhhhg, my mother is driving me crazy about the logistics of her throwing me an out of town baby shower. This is kind of why I waited to have a kid until I was an adult that could financially afford it and not rely on people buying me crap, pretty sure this party is more about her and less about us here. Time for jack and Coke.
