Ok well rocks are a different kind of wheeling its slow. Midwest isn't, you need speed. All I'm gonna tell ya is you better gusset and truss that 30 it WILL bend

The $40/$50 fee goes to the wilds for usage of the property is what the person on expedition portal told me. Like I said though I'm really interested in going. Kinda like a safari without having to shell out several thousand dollars

Another hang up is with 37's I will have to go with a hp30 and swap out my lp as well as gears and brakes. And new dick cepek 35's I cang get for 215/tire. 3
7's will run me about 400$ more and a thousand over all. I don't want to do this twice though. SSee, i am confused. LOL.
Little late on the response but I say 37s! Seems like 90% of the I'm I'm stuck is because my diffs get hung up. That extra 1 inch of diff clearance could be all you need to go any where!

37s don't gain much over 35s except more rolling mass, I'm going back to 35s next year

Lol. I enjoy the 4 doors. Hate the stupid high prices. I really want an 05-06 LJ Rubi, that's the dream Jeep right now but they are overpriced as well.

I have been looking for one with a blown motor and very slight body damage that I could send to bruiser conversions for a 4bt conversion but nothing right now.

Granted that's still a pipe dream.
