Thank you. She was more surprised than me, which is a pretty good start.

Yeah, I think a grand is as good as it gets. Still going to cost about $1500 out of pocket plus another $1k or so to get the tire carrier needed to hold the spare.
Probably... but still, it will be worth it. I love my bumper/tire carrier.

For what little serious wheeling I'll do, I'm thinking the AEV 2.5XT kit. With a JKUR, a 3.5" lift is probably better for actual clearance given the LWB though. I like the anti-dive and on-road benefits of the AEV kits and they certainly will handle how I intend to use the rig offroad.

I'd like to move up to the Bilsteins with external reservoirs just because they're sweet looking at there are times where we'll be running extended distances on rough fireroads (where they will help) but not sure I want to spent 2.5x the cost.

I like my TeraFlex lift, but I love the Fox Shox more. Once I get the rack on, then a front bumper and winch, I am thinking that a lift upgrade may be in order. Naturally, with the additional weight the vehicle will ride and handle differently.
