Either the price has went down ALOT in 3 years, or this is a great deal.

Cool, i'll be waiting to hear from him. I'd like to get the parts over time and do a long arm kit at the current ride height and keep the 32's or maybe a 33 next. Do a 8.8 Rear with a locker and lock and chromo the front. Should be a decent Gulches rig and serve the current purpose of around town driving.
Only thing I didn't like about the short arms on mine was the rear trying to walk up when climbing stuff, front did great. Rockkrawler makes a rear 4 link kit to triangulate the uppers to fix that problem, upper arms are bent and bolt into stock location frame side and a truss on axle side.
I'd think you would drag like a bitch with the re kit and 33-32s.

The arms are what I'd think what would hang you up more so then the belly.
I'd scoop some aftermarket lowers that were beefy and had rebuild able joints on atleast one end, adjustable front uppers for pinion adjustment, artecs 8.8 swap gig and then build uppers and mock kinda what rockkrawler did with there kit having the uppers bolt in frame side factory mounts. That way your not doing anything custom or hacking on frame just building bent uppers and you could unbolt it all and bolt all factory back in if you decided to sell or anything. There's plenty of belly pans on market now that can tuck it up for cheap. If I was to ever find myself buying a stock TJ that's what I'd do atleast.
