[QUOTE="Vman, post: 443080, member: 22091"] Yeah mine wasn't wrecked when I got it but it had been rode hard and put up wet (an '07). Put about a year and a half into it to get it better than it's probably ever been. You can get a 07-11 version set up good if you don't go over a 2.5" lift and 35's and it doesn't break the bank. Looks like that one isn't a Rubicon so you're dealing with that Dana 30 up front. Problem you're going to run into with larger tires on a 07-11 though is the gearing. Mine had 4.10's (auto trans) and it was a dog going up hills. After I put 5.13's in it the clouds parted and angels sang and I couldn't be happier with the result. You can pick up a new set of OEM'ish rear control arms from Crown for about $175 for all 4. I'd throw a soft top on it and call it a day. Unless you get real lucky you're looking at about $3k for a hard top. [/QUOTE]
