Thanks, yep, its been a work in progress since I got it in '95.
I did the SOA in '01 and at the time, I had a fresh set of 33" TSL's when it was SUA which measure ~33.6" tall.
It did okay with the 33's & didn't look too bad since they were close to the size of alot of 35's. It was already geared to 4.56 & had F&R ARB's, so I tossed an 8.8 in it back in '01 which was long before most folks knew about installing an 8.8 in a Jeep.
I did stretch the front wheelbase some (~1") and widened the front axle with a hub conversion kit which help make it a little more stable. Those modifications were done several years ago as well, all of which is changed now.
