Hi all.
I am not really new to the forum, but new to building a JK. I picked up the JK Unlimited Rubicon in June 2013. There are many things I enjoy about the JK, but the stock suspension was not one of them. I have been spoiled by my Tacoma with Icon 2.5" coilovers and shocks, and the stock JK was just too easy to bottom out on the roads and trails I frequent here in the southwest, especially loaded with gear and family. Sooo...I needed to upgrade the JK suspension. After nearly a year I finally got around to working on the JK.
I will post progress in this thread. I welcome suggestions and help. I have a lot of experience with Toyotas, and have owned Jeeps in the past (the last was a 1993 Cherokee) but do not have a lot of Jeep knowledge, and am interested in learning.
