The TBS Airaid, Helix or other brands are supposed to give you more torque at 2-3k rpm --------- Easy to fix, low cost and worth having.

Engine temp is controlled by the cooling system and is optimised by the water circulation valve/pump/radiator etc... therefore in my humble opinion unless your engine is overheating keep it as it is. If it overheats, then look at the root cause of the problem and dont find workaround solutions.

If ur satisfied with the 31" tires, then dont touch the R&P gear ratio.

It does not matter if u wanna stay with the 2" lift or if u decide to go higher, the Rancho 5000 and RS9000x are available for stock height, 2", 3-4", etc... these are two different models from Rancho. In short the 9000 are 9 position adjustable shocks while the 5000 are non-adjustable.

Hope I have answered ur questions...... Other Jeep experts to comment too.

yah what khaiwi is saying is 100 % right.

the throttle body spacer is a good idea to complete the air intake system you got.

the engine oil cooler would be a good solution if you want to keep your car cool when driving in summer , but in case you don't have a problem then no need for it.

the ring a pinion you will need to replace it if only you will change the tyres to 32 or more, if 32 then you can use the ratio of 4.11 , but if 33 then you have to change to 4.56 , and if 35 then 4.88 would be a good one. however we can safely say that 4.56 would work fine with the 32 +

the lift kit , hmmm i would recomend the old man emu from ARB, it would give you 2.5 " and about the shocks as khaiwi said its up to you which one you want to use. for me i like the old man emu.


hmmm another good thing that you can do is to use the borla cat-back , you can get it from the agency.

My dear Amin, sorry to say, but Khaiwi is the expert in Jeep Modifications not Jeep (Sorry Jeep, but we have to respect the Master :behold: ). Ofcourse all of us support Khaiwi's opinion.

As for shocks and springs, I also recommend OME if you are only looking for 2-2.5" lift which is enough to have 32" tires (Thats the set up I have in my car) But you also have to know that 32" tires are not available in all brands and you will be stuck with Micky Thompson of BFG

Since you got the experts opinion & every other ideas will surplus. Anyway, personally, I got the expert opinion couple of months ago with my 2006 jeep & I am saying thanks to him & them : my dear : the warranty things is useless in this part of the world (my opinion of course), however , fun is the thing which is counted at the end of the day, so its nice when you do something different than others, go for the 3" lift kit with 33" tires / 4.56 R&P and the rest of the associated works & you will definetly feel the difference, but dont go for the headers: since Dubai police are running behind Mr. Jeep these days.......And as for the cooling, there was nice thread a month ago which was really helpful & exciting as well.

All the Best with you Piece of Metal . . . !

Thx doc For your nice offer, You're the man :party:

In my humble opinion, And as a user of the OME lift kit, I think they are a bit soft for an agressive off roader, they are more than perfect and really heavy duty, they also take the abuze BUT they are still soft
