Aw, C'mon. There is a bunch of stuff for these out there. They look
really tough with a larger beefy set of tires on them. You're on this
list and you know how much we like to mod stuff........hehe

I suppose it could fit - - there seems to be just enough room in the
engine bay from what I can tell. Its long enough thats for sure.

But I'm envoking an old rule here with this Jeep - "If it ain't broke -
don't fix it". Sorry Adam heheheh

I'm not modding it out beyond a few off road lights for my personal use
up here in Wisc... and my CB (which is already installed). *perhapse* a

STOCK size tire with a more agressive tread, something in the AT family.

But -thats it! No suspension lifts, no ECU chips,no snorkle, no
nothing! :-P
