My car is a Jeep Wrangler Sport 2007 Model . I did the following:
- 3" full Teraflex lift kit with quick disconnectors.
- Teraflex shocks.
- 33*12.5*17 Mickey Thompson tires.
- Heavy duty shackels.
- Filter and haybertek
- Qaruoty Cat Back (Gives me more power and nice sound).
- Warn extra lights & front brackets
- some of stickers.

I have a 2006 LWB Pajero. I like the tip tronic gear tansmission which offers both manual and automatic gear shifting options. The performance so far gives me confidence in the car.

I have a few modifications in mind (phase 1) and need advice from the experts.
1. Lift kit for better clearance. ARB has a 2.5'" pajero compatible kit but I think I need more.
2. Larger tyres for better traction not sure what size and up to which size before I will need regearing.
3. A supercharging kit (maybe phase 2).

The fact that I know very littel about all these topics in need some recommendations of sites with good reading material that is general (not brand specific) no offense to the Jeep owners, after all if the mods I have in mind will not have the result I expect I am thinking to get me a Jeep.

Update on my V8wannabe:

- front and rear chromoly axle shafts (G2) ... Done
- trektop NX fast back safari top with tinted windows .... Done
- Raingler cargo window nets mounted on roll bar ... Done
- Gen Rite Hood Louvers ... Done
- KC lzr LEDs on Delta windshield light tabs ... Done
- OR fab tire/can carrier ... DONE
- removed Spectre CAI ... For sale now ... Not useful with coming V8
- removed Edge Trail Jammer ... Same as above

advice is sought on the intended mods

Naaaaa
will keep it stock ..... it is much better ......

wow u guys really did some mods. well in my 2010 jk sine its brand new i didnt like the limitations in the exhaust system and the air filter so here are a couple of thing i did:

* afe intake system
* gibson deul exhaust system with a little bit of a rumble at the end.

just give me 6more month and i tell you what i did not modify

I.e. up to now, the front axle & transfercase is still stock.
Everything else below the car & hood is changed

For some of our guys, its probably easier and quicker for them to tell you what they didnt mod !!!
