I have had lots of good luck with coopers. They make a good mud/dirt/snow tire. The only thing was they seemed to wear down faster than they should.

 

[Zembonez]

Decided to go ahead and mount the Coopers on my Jeep Ravine wheels. They look great on there! (I'll be hunting some other wheels for the BFGs)

Today's progress:

Other stuff got in the way so I didn't get started until 4:30 and worked until about 8:00.

Other than mounting the Coopers, I got the front suspension all done. Shocks, springs, control arms, sway bar links, track bar, etc. All good to go! Here's a crappy night shot in the garage of the suspension stuff.

Here is a pic with the front end all buttned up and the Coopers installed. You can begin to get an idea how the Jeep is going to look when done. Rears are still stock. Right now the front is up a whopping 6.25 inches. It looks a ton better!

Hopefully I will get the rest of the suspension mods done tomorrow. I wanna go play!

How about painting the stock wheels black?

 

[Zembonez]

Thought about having them done in charcoal gray... but I'm liking them on the white as is. We'll see.

What's next an exo cage?

It's starting to take shape. The suspension and tires really toughens up the appearance.
