im not planning to go off road yet so winch is out of the question right now. i want to get a bigger rear end first before even thinking of any off road. the dana 35 which is on right now will prob be ok to do light mudding but im not going to take the risk since this is my dd. gas really sucks with the new tires prob get less than 15 miles in the city, but that's how it is if you want to play lol. so far im real happy with the new setup, the 33", flares, and bumpers make a whole new animal on the jeep. i get more attention with the jeep than the monte it's like how many jacked up jeep you see downtown chicago LOL. the real good feeling was i ran into other lifted wrangler or cherokee in the 'burbs/city they all waved and give the thumb up. it's not like "hey my jeep is bigger than yours attitude" that's cool. i already met some cherokee owners who invite me to join them to go mudding in indiana next week, but i turn down cuz it's on work day and im not ready for it yet. next mods will be lights, new rear end, and some tune up. future mods: maybe??? L67 swap.
