Link to my build, it is up to date. [Blucid Build Link]

Gladiator is hitting 80,000km
- Still Original OEM Rubicon Suspension. (Super Fatigued suspension, its like driving a boat)
- Still Original Tires that came with the truck.
- Just weekend vehicle, hwy and offroad, bought in July 2020.

The plan is to drop a Alu-Cab ModCap w/ Family Layout ontop of the bed and get rid of the bedrack and the roof top tent.

My Plan is to upgrade the following:

- 2 to 3 Inch Lift
- Steering rack, upgrades to help the fatigued oem
- Higher Load rating springs to handle the weight of the back.
- Was thinking air bags in the springs to help them out.
- I think I have decided with 35 inch tires
- I know I might need a re-gear in the rear

I am open to suggestion or things I have missed. So far, I have an interior planned for the ModCap but it wont be included when I put everything on will be just the Camper and the box, and my regular camping supplies.

You said: - "I know I might need a re-gear in the rear". Don't forget....If you re-gear the rear you'll also have to re-gear the front axle.
