Post subject:  Another Jeep: Bought an 06 LJ

Now I have two Jeeps! Recently bought an 06 LJ with about 66K miles.

Suspension is a 3.5" Rubicon Express (RE) Super-Flex short arm system (fixed-length RE LCAs, stock UCAs, Billstein shocks). Tires are 33x12.5/R15 BFG KM2s (not new, maybe 5K+ miles left). Front bumper with stinger appears to be custom. (Not what I would have done, but I like it.) Rear bumper appears to be a Safari Gard http://www.jeephorizons.com/news/safari_rear_111105.html. Front D44 axle is gusseted.

At this point, mostly replacing soft parts (soft top, sport cage covers). Bought an aluminum trunk:

The plan is to use as-is for about a year. Then add a 1" body lift, 4.88 or 5.13 gears and 35" BFG KM2 tires.

Then within a year or two, add adjustable UCAs (RE or TeraFlex), adjustable track bars, and some sort of tummy tuck with CV driveshafts.

At this point the LJ lives mostly in the garage and the KJ gets used as DD and on weekends. I have a weakness for LJs. Love the 103.4" wheelbase!
