[QUOTE="inactive, post: 1968357, member: 7488"] If you want to keep it fairly stock and are not commuting to/from Tulsa or Dallas every week (so staying off long, open highway runs) you will be fine, honestly. I'd prefer a 6 but I would rather take a 4 that I can afford versus not having a Jeep at all. If you wanted to go taller, you could maybe run up to 30" with no lift, even 31" tires would fit stock though it'd help to throw on a 2" lift (Springs or spacers, springs preferred). That would probably max out the 4 cylinder. Honestly, I could take a cheap, basic 4 banger SE and put some 2" coil spacers on it, cram some 33x[B]9.5[/B] BF Goodrich AT tires on there, trim where it rubs, and be quite happy (though technically that would be a DOG with the 4 cylinder but I could live with it, though I can't recommend it) :D The bigger thing I would look for is hard [B]full [/B]doors with a [B]soft [/B]top. I like the soft top in a Wrangler, so it is easier to fold down or remove compared to a hard top. You can always just take the doors completely off in nice weather. But come winter, the hard doors are really nice, mainly because they have real windows. [/QUOTE]
