WITCHCRAFT !!!!!!!!!
You might appreciate this Sri. I took these a couple months ago. That military Jeep was entirely manufactured and fabbed in India. Pretty neat.

A little thinking out loud here, so indulge me. I've come to realize over the last few years, heresy I know, that the TJ is just a better wheeling vehicle for what I do. That said, I've been considering selling the LJ and focusing on the TJ. If I did, it would mean the TJ would get the following:
The struggle I'm having is even thou I have the latter two, with a hunt on for a suitable HP30 housing, I'm still looking at close to $10K. Being completely honest, the current TJ build is really a lot of fun, even for wheeling, but I have to pass some obstacles, due to clearance at the differentials. Obviously, there is the option to simply go with larger tires, but the fundamental issue of improving the TJ's ability to climb is one that can't be overcome without more work. I guess the question I'm getting at is am I over thinking this?
- 5" stretch
- mid-arm
- out-boarded shocks
- 35" tires
- PSC Steering with cylinder assist
- HP30
- 5.13 gears
- Rubicrawler
Bases on a lot of your history it does sound like you enjoy the tj more. I have an lj because I need to fit kids and the stuff that comes with fitting kids for a weekend of camping/wheeling.
I figures the budget for what I wanted to do long term was $15k with lockers, gears, suspension, skid etc so that 10k number might be right considering you have a quite a bit done to tj already.
