It took me 3 minutes flat with a reciprocating saw and a medium-thick metal blade to do everything.

A shop charges around 150$ for this plus straight pipes. There are 3 rubber pieces holding the muffler in place, you just cut the muffler where it is facing slightly diwn, so the exhaust doesn't melt the rear bumpers plastic. Then you slice the three rubber holders in half and it falls right off. Probably the most simple mod i've done besides the dash kit.

Ok now I'm getting hooked. All I will have is the back 2" shackle lift and the front torsion bar lift. What do you need for 40" or 37"?

40's, ideally you would need to have a alpha with tune and performance mods. Rancho lift with 2" body lift.

37" tires Rancho lift. Having a Alpha would help greatly as well.

I really want to run 40's on my panzer. But I just don't think panzer would do that good on the trails, if anything 38's will be the biggest I go, but 37 might be more realistic. So they don't rub at all, I'll still do the 2 inch body lift

Although it looks badass, I really doubt it's practical for a trail rig or anything running the factory front diff for that matter.

Yes a v8s would be great in high elevation. But really I've been in mts and as far north as Candida down to Savannah ga. My i5 p reforms great with the mods I've done.I swear to it and so dose my mechanic friend.it might help that my Good years r super light and de has a low elevation. So if u like it go for it even though I liked me and recon were unique. We r here to help each other right.

My 5-cyl/AT H3 does good with 5.13s and 37"s....70mph at 2500rpm.

I could probably go up to 40"s but I actually think I might go back down to 35"s on the next build. IMO...37"s seem to be the practical limit. Anything more is overkill, at least on my rig. Running 40"s on a stock 4.56 geared IFS has got to be downright painful to drive. Does it ever shift into fourth gear?
