The wife picked up another Jeep for me. Mods are already being planned!

Diggin that fire in the background 
My wife claims to be allergic to Christmas trees so no fun for me. I think a 3mm budget boost and 2's would be a good start for the new rig.

I reckon the fire was for Irun to burn his todo sheet for the LJ.Diggin that fire in the background

Looks like the new rig is currently running on slicks!
Put another way, if you don't mind spending 5 grand, tons of hours and winding up with the world's ugliest center console, you can overcome the TJ Unlimited wheelbase issue and get close to a TJ in turning ability.

The fire pit is a recent addition. One of the many things taking up all my free time. I installed a Breeo stainless steel fire pit and it's a fantastic product, made in PA.Diggin that fire in the background

Since my wife grew up in NYC, and never had a real Christmas tree, I added a 5' Baby Blue Spruce, so we can decorate it during the holidays.

You're not to far off, especially after this weekend. I won't talk about that just yet though!

And compared to the amount of time, money, detail, and effort he put in to it, that's a very condensed version.
OP
I need to get a condensed version as an executive summary. Unfortunately, I just can't seem to get to it. That said, here's a summary of the front steering/suspension:

Thanks, looked at the begining and looked at the end of the thread, but not the middle, lol.

Did you not do the Savvy 1.25" body lift as well as the suspension lift? Maybe it is not in the list as it is not front end specific?
I'm pretty sure that he did. This thread is well worth the read if you have the time to get thru all of it. And a lot of great information to boot.

Have read it all as it was documented. Just up to page 20 trying to skim to confirm on the body lift when I saw the bell icon for your post, lol.
Annoying I don't seem to be able to search for a post with body lift from Irun, it gives me all posts with body or lift in, which does not narrow it down much, lol. What would be a great feature is if you could get a view of the thread with only the OP's posts and cut out what must be 30 pages of chat, which was fun at the time but now just gets in the way when you are trying to use the thead as a reference - but first world problems and all that!

Answering my own question, it happens on page 22 in this post...
