Well last night I traded my 35" Km2's for some 37x14.5 Toyo Mt's. I will go bigger, but for now these will work. Front framework and 3-link is done, tires mounted, and DOM for my steering got here today so all I have left is Trackbar,steering, bumpstops,and shock mounts then suspension will be complete.
Old vs. new

New width





Now that I have some decent size tires on (still to small) I have realized that I HATE how high it sits. I have some other coils that should lower it 2-3" that I will try out once I complete my trackbar.

Looking good! - you'll love the full-width one-tons. I wouldn't even think of wheeling with anything less now that I know the difference..

I was actually just mentioning your build to my cousin, he either wants to do a Zj to 1 tons or WJ and keep it the way it is

Well I was gonna head out to little moab Sunday but my power got shut off and today is my last day off until then. I still need to finish the rear shock/limiting strap setup lengthen my rear coil posts and tap my box for hydro. Oh and press on my rotors. Got the driveshafts built, both axles geared, and lockright installed. Next Friday I get a 5 day weekend, during that period if there is no wheeling pictures posted someone please come kick my ***.
