Hmmm...I use mine for trail running here in Nevada now,and don't do rock crawling. My '94 came with factory limited slip(still working) and 3:73's.I'm still using 31's on it,and plan no changes there.The 3" body lift does make access for repairs on various components easier as Gman pointed out.Mine is not a DD either, but does get used on occasion to keep the battery charged and fluids circulating.I love having dual tanks-which gives me alot of wheeling time out here without worrying about fuel.(can be long distances between fuel stops)
I am also planning on buying/building a rear spare carrier bumper.There is paint work to also finish when the funds finally permit that.(job transfer before it could be done)
I am very happy with how it performs here,as it has gone everywhere I wanted it to go.
How you are going to use your rig should determine what needs to be done to it.
I'm going for a mildly built D/D. There aren't any close trails so I'm only going to get to wheel a few times a month.
I didn't want to limit it to just my style rig cause I was just curious what people had to say, from their own build experiences.
That is why I asked for people to list their "hardcoreness" however, because, for instance, I don't see a front locker or 35s or D60s in my future.
However, there may always be some good ideas to get from guys w/trailered in rigs, even if I'm not shooting for the same kind of finished product.
Dual tanks and a rear tire carrier would be epic to have, by the way.
