It might be a good idea to update this post. The original sticky is years old and there is a lot more useful information out there now. Missing vendors: Radflo , King , Fox , Bilstein 6125s , etc... The part about the sway bar relocation kit / diff drop has caused a lot of people to order...

So my expectations are a little higher. 299k miles and average 20 + MPG

Mines an 03 V8 with 299k miles. Only issues to date was an alternator a battery and my valve cover gaskets.

Cant speak for other years but I'm in an 03 V8. 299k miles with no issues. Valve cover gaskets just barely starting to leak and replaced 1 starter. Changing my gaskets myself this weekend. --Melissa

If you were in texas and wanted to stay stock we could rip the x-reas off and throw on stock bilstein 3100s ( OEM take off shocks ). I cant believe someone stated Bilstein 5100s are rock hard. They actually have a softer compression ratio than the X-reas. But if you want a Cadillac ride look at...

Hehe my hubby did you lift as well now too. That was Ryan Sivley and Robert Griffin doing the install from Heart of Texas Off Road. Now the important question when we wheeling that beast? --Melissa

You might also consider Radflo. Little cheaper on price , built when you order here in the US , excellent warranty , and a little softer ride ( IMO ). I'm running 2.5" ext travel with 700 lb springs ( V8 bumper winch lightbar full skids , etc ) up front with Toytec superflex HD springs in the...

Beckre80, More than likely your rear springs are just worn out. My buddy has an 06 and tows around trailers and never sags like that. Maybe look into some LC 9 coil rear springs? I think airbags or spacers might just be more trouble than a new set of HD coils for the rear. --Melissa

I would like to know what sliders those are.... may have to call on it.

Not sure if anyone would be interested but I have a set of Shrockworks skids. They were for the 07-09 FJ and I was told they would fit but apparently only the V6 not the V8. Looking for $500 for the full set in Austin Texas. They are used but look pretty good to be honest. Can send pics if...

See and thats why I ask. Thanks for the heads up. Reading on forums I see alot of jeep guys running different and even over at Toyotaholics running different gear ratios. I wasn't sure what the acceptable differences were. With so many people running different ratios for different reason's I...
