Welcome, Andy.
This is (mostly) a great group. As long as you show yourself to be a
straight up guy, you will be treated with respect (mostly) along with lots
of wisecracks and digs...

My personal opinion is that a 4" lift along with 33" tires is an excellent
combination for on and off road. A 1" body lift will allow some extra
clearance as well as allowing other mods like a belly up skidplate, raising
the gas tank with a kilby gas tank skid, and 1" raised motor mounts in order
to improve your rear driveline angles. Tera and RE are excellent brands,
there are some others, too. Look for completeness. (You'll probably want a
Slip Yoke Eliminator (SYE) with a 4" lift)

A lot of opinions on this one. Depends on what kind of wheeling you do.
Overall, I believe the Goodyear MT/R is an excellent all purpose tire. BFG
ATs and MTs are also very popular.

Can make a huge difference. If you're not going to regear, I'd choose one
of the lockers like the Detroit that (I believe) be installed without having
to re set you gears.

There are a number of good brands and the "discussion" of "electric vs.
hydraulic" is on going. For electric, many here like Warn. Good quality
and customer service. Get one that is rated at least twice your vehicle's
weight. (a 4500 lb winch will not get your 4000 lb jeep out of axle deep
mud!)

Andy,
People type funny things here. Mike tends to say "vice" instead of
"versus". I don't know why, but, once you get use to it, you can easily
figure out what he means. :-)
Some people "brake" things and replace their "break" shoes.
Then there's the "their" "there" and "they're" confusion.... We won't go
there...
You'll get used to it. ;-)
If Bill tells you that you don't have a "real jeep", just ignore him. He's
just jealous.

Hi Jim,

Yes, I've seen very funny stuff here. You guys/gals are great. Tell Bill I
had a "real" Jeep a while ago. It was a CJ7, 1979, with a 258 that was
rebuilt with Clifford cam, intake and header(s). A Weber carb to boot. It
had the famous 4 speed T4? that in low range, and in first, would walk. I
rode that Jeep everywhere. I actually put it in the back of my tractor
trailer sometimes when I went West. Sadly it rusted and I had to do
something. It was either fiberglass or by one of those "new" TJ's that were
the rage. So, in 2001 I purchased the TJ. Now in 2003 I want to build it.
My thoughts are it will never be the CJ. That 258 was strong.

There is a 79 CJ7 on eBay with a 304, rust free.

I have a question for you.. Would 33's be OK for me with 3.73 gears?
