    I had a 2007 unlimited jk. I put 4.88 gears with trutracs front & rear with an OME 2.5 " lift bwinch bumper etc. It did crawl rocks good. But the 3.8L is JUNK. Ive had a yj a tj & jk the inline 4.0 were great engines. Then chrysler redesigned the jeep jk with good ideas & went with low quality cheap made or manufactured in Mexico shit parts. The over all quality was just terrible. I wouldnt get rid of my tacoma for nothing but another one. As a matter of fact we traded that jk in last month for a 2011 FJ cruiser. The jk was burning 1&1/2 quarts of full synthetic oil in less then 700 miles. Hell the jeep only had 29k miles on it. Chryslers response was thats normal consumption. What a joke. Anyhow i could go on. But wont. Dont want you to end up with a POS. Stick with toyota. Theyll hold up in the long run.

    Tacoma is stock and staying that way, Pickup is TBA as of now.
    That is why i am fixing up a 1957 Willys CJ5, they are bulletproof and made out of real iron! The old F-head 4 cylinder is a great engine and will get around 25mpg too!

    Build thread in sig... 4-link long travel
    seen cherokees, but so far no wranglers. if someone did, i'd assume it'd be with a 4 door.

    sure dude... off road evolution

    the offer long link kit (long travel) and their double thrown down front and rear kits allow use of dual rate CO's, bypass shocks and air bumps on all 4 corners... legit stuff.

    all "long travel" is are control arms that are longer than stock, therefore allowing use of a longer shocks and yeilding more suspension travel... this can be done with solid axle or IFS
