I was more of looking for the width. I'm loving the 2" lift I have now, but I want a little more clearance on the trails and I'm not the most comfortable with running another 5 inches higher without a wider wheel base with the way I drive. I'm also more of a 33" tire kind of guy. I'm currently sitting on 265/75r16 Maxxis Bighorns, which are great for my setup, but I'll be running either 255/85 or 285/75 of the same tire on stock rims. I haven't flipped that coin yet. Not to interested in adding the weight or stress of wider, heavier tires with my CV's.
I didn't think the Armada swap was THAT expensive. It's kind of why I posted this thread, start gathering all the little details so I could budget. I figured maybe 5000 for the entire build budget, pulling wreckage parts and doing all the labor myself. I may be conservative with that, but hey, a guy can hope.
