Alright so I am doing an overhaul on the 04 Jeep.
I have bought and am almost done installing the following...
Currie 4" kit w/ antirock & dbl adjustables
Rancho RS5000x
Currectlync Steering
SYE & Both Driveshafts
Rear adj. Track bar
Rokmen Skid
Dana 44 rear with 3.73s (Jeep came with 3.07s) (The axle also came with Alloy USA shafts so I am assuming they are Chromoly)
35" tires
Front extended brake lines
I also took the time to wire wheel the frame & axles free of surface rust and repainted them as well as replace any bolts not already being replaced with the Currie kit
So here is everything else I would like to do but I need to take a break on spending $ for a little while...
Exhaust work to compensate all the changes
Regear to 4.88s and axle seal replacements (sooner than later)
Vanco Big Brake Kit w/ unit bearings
Chromoly Front axles and ball joint replacements
Rear Eaton E Locker
Possibly new rear axle shafts depending on the condition of the ones already in there
Am I crazy for waiting 3-6 months on the Vanco BBK (because I would like to do the shafts and ball joints all together with them) with having 35" tires on the stock brakes? Or would I have luck just doing black magic pads/rotors now and waiting a year or 2 on the BBK?
Jeep is a garaged second vehicle that will do occasional light/moderate off-roading 3-4 times a year.
I wish i could just do it all now but money doesn't grow on trees.
