Looks good!...All it needs now is a little bit of cedar tree pinstripe. :mrgreen:

I really like that blue and the gray AEV wheels with it.

A friend of mine just got a blue 4 door Rubicon that same color. We need to get both of you down to Tuttle and see how well that color hides pinstripes. :twisted:

Thanks for the comments. I wasn't really sold on the Deep Ocean Blue at first. My wife was like oooh how pretty :roll: So I was sure I didn't want that color then. Still the dealer was willing to deal on this "one" so I took it. It's growing on me but I am still getting grief from my Husker friends.

That sure is a beautiful looking Jeep you have there. I can’t wait to get my Jeep either paid off or get some money set aside so that I may add some mods to my Jeep. I know I want to get a lift, 35" or 37" tires, different bumpers, and a winch.

Thanks a lot. I wasn't aware these things came with their own sickness. I just bought it and I want to tear everything off of it and like you add new stuff. I am looking at the Aberle front and rear bumpers, bikini top, cb and a host of other things that the finance queen is just not trying to hear right now. Whats wrong with the bumper that's on the jeep? Ummmm yeah well its like this hon...

Bytheway great looking Rubi :)

Those are easy mods. :D I have about 3.5" of lift and 37's on my JK. So...when are we doing your lift?

I would love to say sometime soon, but I’m sure the monthly budget will says something completely different. I have read on other forums that I should be able to run 35's without a lift, so when the time comes to replace the factory tires I want to look at new rims and a set of 35's. After that, I can add the lift and slowly works towards the other mods. My JK is my first vehicle that I have bought, that I didn’t want to trade back in for something else a year later. And I have bought my fair share of new vehicles, so I am so glad that I am 100% happy with my Jeep, which will probably be the first vehicle that I actually pay off!!

And I most certainly want to make at least one, if not more trips down to Tuttle this summer. I will even force my wife into bringing her Jeep along too.

Those other forums are crazy, don't listen to them. You can certainly daily drive with 35's but the second you get on the trails and start flexing you will rub and potentially slice a tire. If you get a wheel with backspacing of about 4.5" and a 12.5 wide tire (typical 35" width...sometimes 13.5) you will be fine daily driving with minor trimming. To make sure those 35's don't get cut up, get a cheap budget boost from tera flex. Those things are a dime a dozen and forums are littered with used ones for $100.

Here is the real deal...first a few questions. What is your set up on your four door? Rubicon, X, Sahara? What are your gears? Automatic?

If you put 35's on there with an automatic and it isn't a Rubicon, you are going to want to re-gear before anything else. The four doors are heavy and the autos are geared pretty high. 35's or 37s need 5.13s in a four door.

Then, you also have to consider your front axle. If it isn't a rubi, the D30 is a joke a guys are breaking them all the time. Granted, they are breaking them when they are running 37s but the weight of the 4 door is a killer on that front d30, especially when you put big meats on it.

Just wheel with someone who has a winch and you won't need one. :D That's what HuskerRubi does...jerk.
