LOL, you have no idea...

It is a sort of upgrade... my mildly modified jeep has gone places that more heavily modified X's have trouble... but you do loose comfort and a bit of style...

another major plus... when i had a wheel bearing grenade at 50mph(lucky i didnt flip) i went on the local jeep club site asked around and managed to get 2 wheel bearign assemblies for free... the jeep community really does stick together...

Like you I am eyeing the '05... time will tell
