To any off road conversion specialists:

I am planning to purchase a new Jeep Wrangler Sahara with 5 spd. manual trans., 30" tire and wheel group, Dana 44 rear axle, rear Trak Lok. Over time, I would like to modify to be reasonably good off road while still quite roadworthy for day to day and long distance driving. Anyone out there with suggestions?
for instance, I am planning a suspension lift kit. Best height, brand, things to look for? Right now I am thinking of the Rubicon Express system.
Lockers for the front. Brand,, type?
Tire size? Right now I am thinking ultimately of moving up to 32" tires. I understand the 8" rims that come with the 30" wheel package will handle such a size tire. Thinking not necessary to go above that.
Any other thoughts, Winch, bumber types??
I presently participate in Jeep Jamborees mainly in the East (I live in S. Fla. so its a 1,000 miles to the closest for me). My ultimate dream is to work up to the Rubicon Trail in Calif. So the vehicle must be good on hill and rock climbing. I hate mud and am going to avoid that in the future. JDN
