    The perfect build for me, is exactly what I have now. Why? Keep my trac as close to stock, so I can get thru tight spots, and keep the center of gravity low to reduce the chance of tipping. Lots O rocks and tight trails out here, and on the trails I go on, so I kinda built to suit my immediate needs.

    The perfect build might be hard to determine as Jeepers have different build needs from mall crawler stock to rock krawlin to desert running rigs and more. I think I like to build a low profile ultimate Backcountry special edition the way Jeep should have built it.

    I actually love my dirty mall crawler build lol it looks pretty I bring it to car shows with me and my friends then you can turn on a muddy road and get down and dirty and still go back to the car show looking good lol but seriously I wouldn’t mind a 17 inch rim and 35s lol beadlock of course. My tires are a pretty penny since the rim size but yea I like the mall crawler look but I’m the only mall crawler that will get dirty around here I guess I don’t care if I scratch my rims up like that are now lol

    I would have to agree with chris4x4. My perfect build is what I have now. I would like to have a 6inch long arm lift with 40’s. Bigger axle and a diesel would be nice too. But that’s the fun of owning a Jeep. It doesn’t matter what year or body style. The possibility are endless and we all have our own ideas when it comes to what we like in our build.

    3 inch zone lift. Fox 2.0 shocks. 35 inch nitto ridge grapplers. Bushwacker flat fenders. No name steel bumpers front and back for now.
    I'd like to have a turbo diesel in my rig as well. Along with some prorock 60's locked and geared with 37's. Other than that I'm pretty happy with my rig. I'm not too big of a fan of anything bigger than a 40" tire cuz after that they just look gaudy. But that's just me lol. As far as anything else I think I'm pretty well set. On board air would be nice to have too
