All of my parts (read: all the parts I
think I will be needing) Have finally gotten in, so I guess it's time to start a build thread.
Here's where we're starting, a 2000 TJ Sport, pretty much bone stock, apart for some no-name aftermarket wheels.

Some of you saw her as she sits now at last month's Flagpole ride. I've driven her since I was 16, and recently bought her from my family this year. Apart from a new check engine light every 4 weeks, the only trouble she's given me are the 28" highway tires, which have about as much traction as a wet hardboiled egg. After these years, however, its time to upgrade, and hopefully do it right.
Here are the plans for "Stage I" along with parts I have purchased either new or from forum members:
- OME 2" lift
- JKS 1.25" Body Lift
- Trackbars, end links, and d/c's
- MML
- Savvy Transfer case cable linkage
- 33x12.5r15 (Specific tire TBD, looking at Duratrac, KO2, and Falken M/T01)
- OEM Ravine Wheels (thanks alpineovernappa)
and where the "half" Sporticon comes in,
- Rubi D44 Rear
- Rubi 241OR Rocktrac (thanks Runner)
- Double Cardan ds
And of course a pic of the goods (sans springs, they just got delivered)

My Roadmap right now looks like
1. Install Body lift and MML
2. Swap 241 T-Case in (micro-tuck, as I'll be using the Sport skid/crossmember) and Cable shifter
3. Drop rear axle and replace rear suspension components. Install D44
4. Install front suspension lift components
5. Regear front D30, or source 4.11 takeoff
6. Measure for driveshaft, order, and install
I'll be doing this after work and when I have time on weekends, which, combined with my tandem garage situation (width of a 1 car), this might be rather slow going. My hopes are to have this done by the end of the month, but we'll see what troubles I run in to. This is by far the biggest mechanical undertaking I've made, so hopefully I don't get in too far over my head.
