Would 33's just be too much tire for you personally?

2" lift. Saggy rear. 285/75 basically 33's. Tighter than all hell but so worth it. At least till I get my kit

Some trimming and bumpstops and you can make due. Get a ZJ v8 tie rod before you twist yours into a pretzel

The gas tank need modifications I think. The t case skid needs modification of the frame rail to get it to bolt on regardless of year. The front skid should bolt on
