If you are planning on lifting it, get the lift first unless the tires are so bad that life is at risk. Reason to get lift first: get bigger tires afterwards.

All comes down to personal choice.

Your KJ is lacking an Ohio State Sticker, Bengals, Browns, Reds, Indians, Bluejackets, Clippers, or Crew sticker.

you must have been from ohio at one point :lol:


yeah, all the carmax will be coming off.


I want a Lift, but its not needed, so Stock tires size would work, I do want a more aggressive tire, which means I might look for 16inch rims

Actually, I might be selling my 16" Limited 5-spoke rims here before too long. Let me know if you might be interested and I'll keep you in the loop when I put rubber on my new rims.

Just meet up around Hoover.....if I remember correctly, Africa Rd. They couldn't have built that area up too much since I left Ohio.....or could they? Could be some country trails out that way still. Obetz and Rickenbacker area could have some nice country restuarant settings and dirt trails.

or


just go do donuts up in New Albany on Les Wexners property. Knock down those mandatory white fences he made the city put up. That would make for a great Meet n Greet. :lol:

Looks great. Welcome to the KJ family.

One thing I noticed. Did you know the center brake light is not working? In one of the pics the brakes are depressed and only the lower side brake light s are on. check the bulbs.
