I have an Ole Man Emu 2" lift. JKS Quick disconnects sway bar links and a JKS adjustable track bar were also installed. As well as new bump stops.

What else should I do? Tummy Tuck? Any upgrades for the rear?

What are all the parts I need to swap over to the XJ steering from the stock TJ Sport steering?

The rear is slightly lower than the front. I would hate for people to think I am endorsing the Carolina Sag trend that IMHO is so eff'n stupid it is dumb. Is there an easy solution to make it level or with a slight front rake?

I have a wench. :ROFLMAO:

Yes, front bumper w/ winch & a rear bumper. That is on the list.

Oh, wait. Winch on the front will help with the leveling. I gotcha now. You are correct :ROFLMAO:

I wouldn't go too heavy on the big items (tummy tuck, axel, lockers, etc) until you start getting into places you may need them, or other upgrades necessitate them.

You'll learn what you need in time.

Meanwhile, go wheel the snot out of it.

You can get some spacers for the rear if you need to. When i did the ome lift i needed spacers in front. All depends on the jeep.

I suggest a small folding shovel ,camp axe,tow strap,hooks front and rear as a start.

Check out the build thread section and look at lots of builds. Or maybe not,you'll get too many ideas🤣

Tummy tuck would help a bunch with clearance. Though you might need an sye and bodylift. It snowballs quick from now on.a lot of mods are interdependent.

What do you need? Help. 🤣

Get off-road and let the Jeep tell you what it needs.

Wow. @AndyG you have done a lot since we last spoke. I will have to call or stop by to talk about the XJ steering and the Double DIN install. I have a good idea but have some questions.
