Awesome rig @Harpblower!Here's my rig.
2014 JKUR 3½" Rubicon Express, Synergy Ball joints, Artec front axle truss, Rockhard Full skid plates, 37" BFG t/a ko2, Smittybilt bumpers, Harbor Freight 12,000 lb Badland winch, Supertuner trails dash, 63 qt refrigerator, and other stuff that I can't think of right now.View attachment 10079 View attachment 10080 View attachment 10082 View attachment 10083
I've got the 6 speed stick and stock gearing. Driving around doesn't seem to be to bad. I do have to drop to 5 on the grade coming home from work, 4th if there is a head wind. Not sure how it would effect an automatic transmission. The BFG's say 37" but they are closer to 35¾". I'm running the stock wheels with an 1½" spacer. They rub a little at full lock on the frame at the back of the wheel well. With the 4to1 low range and 4.10 gears it's not to bad on the trail. I did the Rubicon Trail in August and it did just fine.Awesome rig @Harpblower!
Did you regear for the 37's? If not, how does it feel and what are the pros and cons in your experience?
My 33" duratracs will need replacement in the next year or so and I'm debating between 35's or 37's.
I know 4 low shouldn't be a problem given the Rubicons center diff gearing. Wondering how it effects driveability in 2 and 4 hi

Not really for pups the middle box is for my gundog and the side opening doors for my. Terriers but everthing doubles up as storage for work and leasure , good thing is that set of draws has been transferred off and on 4 nissan navaras then into 2 isuzu d max , the top but did not fit the dmax So a new one was built but i got a good price for the used one i would never go back to fibreglass The constrution lasts unlike snugtops@Graham That bed box setup is really slick.

That's one thing we are lucky with.. Roads are generally plenty wife for full size vehicles on most occasions.Hey all the more space to fit out and carry gear our trucks need to be small as we have small roads ,entry and exsits.

Wow, that is a great looking X. I had an '07 I bought new with the intentions of doing similar stuff, but it wasn't the rig I had thought it would be.
Mine has gone through a couple of pretty major rebuilds the last couple of years.
First one consisted of basically changing out Everything, less the front spindles for the "Titan swap" of the suspension.
That requires converting over to Titan truck components (direct bolt-in [emoji106])
The front m205 diff, lca's, cv's, tie rod ends, aftermarket uca's, and then adding Titan swap specific coilovers to the setup to give you over 2" in width per side and almost doubling wheel travel to close to 11"!
New heavier Alcan springs in the rear with tuned Fox remote rez shocks, timbren bumpstops F&R, radflo hyd bumpstops in front to boot.
Heavier M226 rear axle (d44 variant) w e-locker. Front ARB air locker.
Then last spring I pulled diffs again and switched to 4:56's so I could run 35's. 2" body lift for clearance. Cst aluminum radiator, 200a alternator. Air horns to compliment my viAir oba system.
I've built all of my own armor, less the gobi ladder.
I occasionally run a Cvt RTT when I need it.
Still need to install the national luna dual battery system and odyssey batteries, but always too baclkogged with bumper orders[emoji848]
About ready to pick up a frontier or new Titan I'm thinking for the next project.
